Orcs, as we know them in the fantasy world, were really brought to life by J.R.R. Tolkien in classics like "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings." Before Tolkien, "orc" was just an old word that people sometimes used to refer to something like a troll or an ogre, but didn't describe the unique kind of beings we're familiar with today. Tolkien imagined orcs as this tough, often misunderstood race, working for the bad guys and causing trouble for our heroes.
There isn't a clear link between orcs and any specific creatures from old myths or legends, unlike other fantasy favorites such as elves or dragons. So, the orcs we see in games, books, and movies these days? They're mostly inspired by Tolkien's creativity. He kind of set the stage for what orcs would be like in the fantasy genre, making them more than just your average monsters.
