Orc Language

This article contains quest spoiling information. Read at your own risk.

Background

The Orc Language is written in three books near the Bear Room Quest.

If you learn to speak Orcish while on Rookgaard you can trade with Blind Orc, who lives on a hill over the main Free Account dungeon north of town (here), and buy equipment you can't usually get in common Rookgaard stores.

Learning Orcish is the only way to get a Bow on Rookgaard but buying one seem to be a waste unless you're planning to stay there.

Amber speaks some orcish words. Ask her about Orc Language. She will tell you more about it if you give her some salmon.

After human race did spread around Tibia, and Minotaurs found out of Mintwallin and built settlements to Rookgaard and different parts of Tibia, many of Orcs have forgot their native language, and instead communicate with uttering and basic human language.

Only elite officers of the Orcish race, Orc Leaders and Orc Warlords who live in Ulderek's Rock, the oldest city of Orcs, and some hermits, such as Blind Orc seem to speak Orcish fluently.

Numbers

Orcs do not seem to have any words for numbers; according to Orcish writings, they seem to use numbers of Humans, but way they pronounce them is unknown.

The only numbers they seem to know are 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. If one wants to write number over 5, it is shown as addition, for example number 11 is shown as "5 5 1".
