Tips & Tricks
- Blork is basically a beefier orc wizard. He has more attack spells and Haste, but lacks Confuse. Because he can haste himself, it's more difficult to run away. Otherwise, unless he spawns with a big weapon, you can treat him like a strong orc wizard.
- If you worship Beogh, he may join you as a follower.
Trivia
- Blork the orc is a reference to Mork from Ork, a rainbow-suspenders-wearing alien from the 70's television show "Mork & Mindy".
- If you polymorph him, his name will change accordingly (e.g. he might become Blork the centaur).
History
- In 0.32, Blork the orc will become Blorkula the orcula, a vampire that splits into multiple randomly-colored vampire bats when he dies. Additionally:
- He will gain the Sting, Sandblast, and Shock spells. Cantrip and Magic Dart will be removed from his spell list.
- He will gain a second attack with the vampiric attack flavour.
- He will spawn in D:5-8 instead of D:4-6.
- Prior to 0.27, he could cast Invisibility when low on health.
