1971, Orc suggestions.

Axe armor: Instead of wearing armor on body parts, you wear axes that add to your abilities. Their material and damage type also can exploit vulns.

For example,

Feet: You taped axes to your feet, kick, trample, and cheapshot now prog deathblow.
Head: You glued an axe to your head. Headbutt now also overheads. Blackjacks get chopped in half.
Face: You tape an axe to your face, savage feeding now also slices.
Wrists: You tape axes to your wrists, now when you get kotegaeshi'd the assassins gets hit with artery.
Legs: Trip now hamstrings.
Arms: Kansetsuwaza now slices the assassin.
Body: Whenever someone bashes you or bearcharges you, they get sliced.
Hands: Taped axes to the back of your hands. Get an extra attack for each one that lands.
Fingers: Changes punch damage to the damage type of the axe(but still do punch damage), and you now can parry with them. Making you safe from disarm.
Waist: Chance for added damage on bash.
Neck: Strangle immunity, damages the assassin.
About: Flee now chops.

Also, if you have an axe of a high enough level on all body parts, you get a ward of blades like effect.

More ideas...
Axoflage: It's clear that you're in the room, but all that can be seen is axes, so you can't be targeted.
(Bunch of axes) Someone is here.

Orc Class idea, Axe shapeshifters:
The entire point of this class would be to support Berserkers. You get shapeshift, your only form being axe from level 1 until hero. They will wield you, as you level your form gets different damage types, materials, and your average damage goes up. You can unshift and bash, but that's it. At level 35 you can enslave a second axe, speaking to them with your axe kinship ability. This way while the orc wielding you and your enslaved axe is bashing, you can command it and yourself to pincer. You can also learn to take the form of other well known axes, so that people will pick you up, and you can shift back and bash them, the surprise stunning them for 12 seconds.
1975, Yeah. This is delightfully funny.

That "it was a night before christmas CF style" post will always hold the upmost level creativy possible to achieve... by basically anyone...

while not nearly as good as that, this is still delightfully entertaining on many levels. Stevers can't even milk this one and take away from it's funniness... at least he hasn't yet.
1976, Implying my post was funny n/t

1972, I have a better idea for orcs. A new type of sword, but called the Axord FOR ORCS ONLY (text)

It parries like an axe but it hits like an axe.

The only real difference is it looks more like a sword than an axe and don't forget if you dual wield Axords then you can do like a sword flurry but with only two hits per flurry if it lands with a substantial amount of damage and a good amount of lag on both the giver and receiver's end. This skill can be called the clobbering.
