Build-A-Setting #1: Orcs, Dwarves, and Elves in the 21st Century - Page 3

Greetings and salutations to the grognardiest of communities! I'm in the process of developing a new setting for a GURPS campaign I'm planning, and I would like to ask for creative and theoretical input. I'm attempting to cast as wide a net as possible, so no observation or idea is too far-fetched or bizarre, and no presumption or creative liberty is out of line. Ask questions, but feel free to explore possibilities. I'll eventually use everything that's submitted for fuel and inspiration as I continue to flesh out the setting.

The Goal: Obtain a comprehensive, creative, multi-faceted understanding of the topic. Explore possible side-effects, far-reaching effects, conflicts and contrasts, and innumerable "what-ifs."

Setting Summary: A modern fantasy environment modeled after the real-life 21st century, but where fantasy elements like magic, monsters, and numerous classic fantastic races have always existed.

Today's Topic: What would the presence of Orcs, Dwarves, and Elves look like in the 21st century?

I look forward to exploring this topic with all of you! Tomorrow's Build-A-Setting topic will expand the topic further with additional races beyond the standard "big three".
