Hello everyone,

I wonder what material and/or lore is available about Hulgorkyn, besides that it's the Archaic Orc language, that it's a dead language and that it uses dwarven characters. Any important writings and or works in that language? If not, anything else one should be aware of? I am playing a half-orcish wizard who would like to discover more about that language and its role in orc evolution and culture.

Any help would be highly appreciated , thanks in advance.

Races of Faerun mentions that among the orc subraces, Orogs, aka Deep Orcs, inhabited the Underdark and there some learned the Dwarven tongue. They are literate, and not averse to using magic, unlike the other orc subraces. They have a long tradition of armor and weapons forging. My best guess is the language must have developed with them, but it's just a surmise.

Hmmm,

A lot of the languages in the Realms have never been really that detailed.

I'll repeat what I've said a few times today, maybe go ask Ed in his scroll? :)
