[edit] Names

Does anyone know exactly how Orc names work? For instance in the quest The Noble's Daughter, we have two orcs - one father and his daughter - Lord Rugdumph gro-Shurgak and Lady Rogbut gra-Shurgak. Male orcs are gro, and females gra, right? And does it mean son of / daughter of, or does it state where they are from, i.e. is Lord Rugdumph from Shurgak or is it just his name? --Patito 07:02, 28 June 2006 (CDT)

I think it's a tribal name, though I am not quite certain. Best place to ask would be at the official forums, they have an entire section dedicated to lore. Chirikov 14:47, 28 June 2006 (CDT)

[edit] Location

I've got that they (being Orcs) came from the Wrothgarian and Dragontail Mountains, but in what part of Tamriel is this located?

You can see the rough location of the two mountain ranges on this map; the Dragontail mountains being in north Hammerfell (penetrating a short distance into Skyrim), and the Wrothgarian mountains located in southern High Rock. \*\ Hellhound43 23:46, 11 August 2007 (CDT)
