^^ i'm always bothered by kobold not being lizard due to me having some confused memory about them being dragon slave/kin/subordinate ...Well yeah. Mythologically orcs were pigmen, but between Warcraft, the Lord of the Rings movies, and several other popular depictions, the idea of orcs evoled in the west, while the east still has the older form of orcs. They also think kobolds are dog people because they misinterpted a D&D description of snouts like dogs, to be actual dog snouts, so at least this has precidence rather then simply being a misunderstanding they refuse to fix.
and for orcs, i'm having difficulty with them not being corupted elf due to my first encounter with them being the silmarillon ^^ not too sure about them being pigmen though
but i'm down for any game you play as an orc that isn't refered to as an oak or an oak road ... T_T mtl did a number on them nearly want to ask people to press F for the orc lord >< (they never diserved this level of racial bullying, this could be a reason of why they are always the bad guy ... except the serious orc ><)
