To have an Orc accent just speak slightly.. stupid, make it up if you must, there is no wrong or right word.
Nub = no
Yuh / Yubba = yes
Try to involve alot of 'u' sounding words aswell, for instance:
Oomie = Human
Yooh = you
Using your imagination works best, but now all words need to be changed, just spell them wrong or shorter, or do not change them atall.

Here's what you do. Tie a small brick to a medium-thickness rope. The rope doesn't need to be very long. Tie a loop on the other end of the rope that is probably big enough for your fist to fit through it comfortably. Instead of putting your fist through that loop, put your lower jaw through it. Rest the loop on your bottom teeth. Begin talking. Take notes on poor speech pronunciation. Remove brick and mimic mentally. Log in. Enjoy Illarion as an orc.
Repeat as necessary.

Actually, my impression had always been that "oomie" stood for humans, not just anything that isn't an orc. I don't think I've ever heard them called "oomans", really =D . Probably interchangeable. I just didn't think the first one stood for any other race.

Hm.. they look quite different to me. You can just remember that-
Male human graphic: Has cape and short, dark brown hair.
Male elf graphic: No cape. Has light brown hair in a ponytail.
Female humans also have a cape. Female elves have long black hair.
