- “Something complex that those brainless Gnorcs would never figure out.”
- – Phil, Spyro: A Hero's Tail
Gnorcs are a recurring species in the Spyro franchise. They were created by Gnasty Gnorc and commonly serve as his foot soldiers.
Characteristics
Gnorcs are bipedal, orc-like creatures with pointy ears, crooked teeth, four fingers, three toes and dark tone spots. They appear in a variety of colors such as green, yellow, purple, blue, and pink. Like their master, Gnasty Gnorc, most Gnorcs have personalities that are combined the short temper of a gnome and the bad attitude of an orc.[1]
There are some types of Gnorcs who wear metal armor, which protects them from Spyro's flame attack, but they can still be defeated by his charge attack. Conversely, the larger Gnorcs cannot be defeated by Spyro's charge attack but only his flame attack. Large Gnorcs who wear metal armor cannot be defeated by either attack. Usually, when a Gnorc is defeated, they release gems unless Spyro has already collected them.
Story
Spyro the Dragon
In Spyro the Dragon, their debut appearance, the majority of enemies are Gnorcs. Gnasty Gnorc created them from the gems that he stole from the Dragon Worlds. With his new warriors, Gnasty Gnorc would attempt to take over the Dragon Kingdom.
Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!
In Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!, Gnorcs do not appear as enemies. Instead, there is a non-hostile variant of Gnorcs, known as Showman Gnorcs, who run a theme park in Dragon Shores.
Spyro: A Hero's Tail
In Spyro: A Hero's Tail, Gnorcs with their leader, Gnasty Gnorc, reappear as enemies and are under the control of Red. This time there are 3 types of Gnorcs, for example: A huge pink Gnorc which attack with ax & hammer, a middle blue Gnorc that attack with a sword and a small green Gnorc that shoot arrows. In each realms, the Gnorcs have have different outfits depending on where they are. After Red lose the battle, the Gnorcs are transformed into robots in Volcanic Isle by Red as a way to gain potential armor.
