noun
-
A female orc.
“My gaze fell on an orcess. It was the first time I'd seen a woman from the race of the Firstborn. She looked a lot like Miralissa, except that her hair wasn't gathered into a braid, but a long tail. The orcess was armed with two crooked swords and the sculptor had caught her as she was spinning around.”
“Kalatea was an orc-more precisely an orcish madien^([sic]). Hmm...Or is it orcess? I don't know what the proper term for her was, but the main gist was evident-she was large and green.”
“"And this is my vassal Mahk the Orcess," I gestured towards my imposing pet. She simply grunted. Orcs hated social formalities.”
