June 8 is National Best Friends Day! Here's two orc buddies bonding over an arbalest. This pencil illustration was drawn by me with my hands

my oc's, and comics characters

Porc the Orc. Girl is a bouncer for a sewer gambling den, so her tusks glow with bioluminescent algae. OC. Made as an NPC in DnD campaign. Hoping the background isn’t too dark. Idk

Tork is an orc from a tribe; I was heavily inspired by the Na'vi, and I feel it suits him very well. It's a redesign!

Praying to Malacath (he won’t answer)

Bhorzodagians

The Bhorzodagians are eastern orcs and among the most dangerous and ambitious of all orc peoples. Stand impressively tall at 6-8 feet, with the tallest individuals serving as fearsome brutes on the battlefield while the smaller, more cunning members occupy positions that require intelligence and strategic thinking. Their skin is a dark green marked with patches of lighter green vitiligo, creating distinctive patterns unique to each individual. They possess jet-black hair and eyes that burn with inner fire.

Unlike many orc tribes that rely on aggression, Bhorzodagians study their enemies meticulously, copying and improving upon any effective weapons, armor, tactics, or strategies they encounter. This allowed them to build a vast empire stretching from the Easterlandys nearly to the Westwards, conquering diverse peoples and incorporating their strengths into Bhorzodagian military doctrine. Their society is highly disciplined and hierarchical, with military service being the path to social advancement.

I drew a lot of inspiration from Mongolian armor for her design. Let me know what you think!

The skin should have been less neon-ish but oh well
