A coarse and lanky orc. Urug lost his eye in a fight with a harpy, and has sworn to slay every last one of them. Unfortunately, the vision in his remaining eye is not very good, and he has mistaken you for one. He smells terrible.

U r u g, tumbled down, fallen by crumbling down. Slipped down, as earth from a hill-side, stones which have been piled up or the like. To fall as water at a cascade. To fill up a hollow by putting earth into it. To lay gravel or materials on a road. A landslip.

U r u r u g a n, apparently a plaural from of 'Urug'. To go with a number of men to any work. To make war, to attack with an army. To set upon in numbers, as it were to timble upon in masses.

-Jonathan Rigg, A dictionary of the Sunda language of Java. 1862.

Useful Info

Urug the Orcish Ballista is a unique orc who often carries javelins and wields a heavy weapon. Although he lacks any particularly unique traits, he can be a danger in melee or at range.

If you worship Beogh, he may join you as a follower.

Location

Tips & Tricks

  • Fragile characters should try not to get stuck at range with him any longer than they have to, as his javelins can deal brutal damage. Keep up Repel Missiles and try to kill him as quickly as possible, or run and come back later. He only has so much ammunition, and will eventually run out, but trying to lure him into using them all up in one attempt is extremely dangerous.

History

Urug was made significantly more dangerous in 0.11.
