Are orcs immortal?? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I agree with Silmiel. But when the elves were corrupted and the orcs came into being, then I am sure that those orcs were probably naturally immortal, but how long ago do you think that happened?

Like Silmiel said, the bloodline of orcs has been so "watered down" that the immortality of the orcs is gone and the new orcs now have some elven blood in them, but not enough to really affect anything. The only ones who would make an exception were, of course, the orcs who were the first and were still living. LIke Gorbag and Snagrat.

That's all IMO.
