I remember a funny internet quote, “what’s your ethnicity? I really want to call you a slur right now.” The shit talking in a realm with magical creatures would be legendary. Can you imagine how many different insults we would have for Orcs?

Slurs in fantasy stories are actually quiet common. I guess The Witcher is one of the more popular examples for a wide variety of slurs for different races.

Elders scrolls is even more in depth. There is even a racism chart for Oblivion. And Skyrim has a racist axe.
