The Orcs, or Orsimer, are one of the three races representing the Daggerfall Covenant. Their homeland is Orsinium.
Orcs are huge and strong. They are one of the tallest races of Tamriel. Their skin is green and they have huge canine teeth. They do not have magical skills and they make bad mages, sometimes you will come across an exception. Most of them do not have magical talents. Despite this they have their advantage: a very strong body. They are among the strongest races found in Elder Scrolls. They can wear heavy amour and sport even heavier weapons. Their specialization is hand-to-hand combat. So if you need a strong and fierce warrior an orc would be a very good choice. You can meet them among adventurers or legionnaires of the Imperial Legion.
