Quick Information
The great soldier-Orcs; they were larger and stronger than their forebears, and could withstand the light of the Sun. High-orcs, or Uruk-hai as they are known by all the Dark Lord's servants. These hideous creatures are members of a race descended from Elves who were twisted and perverted by Morgoth during the First Age. Although they are not inherently evil, they are culturally and mentally predisposed toward dark forces of evil. Orcs are cruel, jealous, petty, ambitious, selfish, and suspicious (just generally darn mean). They are almost always uncomfortable and, aside from meal time or battle, are never happy or at peace with themselves.
