    If your orc culture doesn't have at least a partially fleshed-out conlang with a phonology that accommodates for their tusks then don't talk to me. Just shrinking them so that they're barely fangs is WEAK.

      I named my bug lady character exclusively with sounds that do not require lips to make so I'll damn well make sure any orcish that shows up is tusk-friendly

          idk what it is in IPA but "Kireza" is her name. The "r" is kind of a trill with the tongue.

          the ship's chef is an orc, his name is "Krashi" which thanks to experimenting with shoving my fingers into my mouth proves to be tusk-friendly as well

        I appreciate Wizards doing this for Thri-Kreen

        Thri-kreen Names: Chit'al, Drik-chkit, Gulnik, Kiktul, Klaktuk, Krik, Pok, Ptekwe, Tal'tich, Tilnak, Tik-tik.

          Yes, the Dzeturi are a legally distinct desert-dwelling mantid race with blood memories that I created, completely different from the thri-kreen sweat
