| Apr 30, 2014 at 0:06 | comment | added | La-comadreja | @La-comadreja (the weasel) is more or less the counterpart of an orc in the Redwall series and The Wind in the Willows. The real animal is mind-numbingly cute and plays like an otter on catnip. youtube.com/watch?v=hy6oaDzy0-Q So I'm a "nice orc" too, kinda. :) | |

| Feb 25, 2012 at 22:06 | comment | added | Andres F. | A good Orc wouldn't be an Orc. Enslavement and corruption by the Enemy is mandatory for the Orc condition. Note that Tolkien didn't really decide whether Orcs were truly corrupted Elves or corrupted Men (I didn't include this debate in my already verbose reply) -- the only certainty is that they were corrupted versions of an existing race, which answers your question: Orcs cannot be good, ever. | |

Edited to establish this was not intended to be an open list type question.

| Feb 25, 2012 at 0:10 | comment | added | Major Stackings | It came up in chat that "good" orcs were elves, and "bad" elves were orcs, but that made me wonder if that meant a "bad" elf would be born all knarly and a "good" orc would pop out of the ground all shiney and Legolos like? | |
