From an IM with Jim DelRosso but definitely thinking about Richard Rogers and Bret Gillan.

“When an orc perishes, before Orcus takes them to hell to join his Eternal Horde, he commands their lifeless body to attack their murderer, in hopes that they can wait while the adventurer’s incarnation of death brings them to their afterlife’s reward, so the Orc God and the recently killed orc soul can scream orcish curses at them while the dead is marched to the Black Gates.”
