Ork is Elvish for Human

That's something I've been toying with and planning on introducing in an upcoming game/campaign.

Basically, Ork is the word Elves use for us, humans. It's your choice if this means you remove the Orc/Half-Orc race as a player option from your game, or if you remove Humans altogether. Personally, I intend on going with the latter.

This idea came to me when I was thinking about how in a lot of games humans are boring because they're written from the point of view of a human. How would other races view us, though.
