The Orsimer (commonly known as Orcs) are a playable race in The Elder Scrolls Online. The Orcs of Wrothgar are members of the Daggerfall Covenant, along with the Bretons and Redguards, though they are not bound to this alliance if the game is pre-ordered. A hardy mountain people, Orcs are considered uncivilized outcasts by most other races. However, they are recognized as the finest smiths in Tamriel, and Orcish arms and armor are prized by warriors and craftsmen everywhere.
