Just follow the example already in front of you. Find the shapeFile field for the player datablock "~/server/scripts/player.cs" and change it to reflect your new model. You may also have to create and exec a script file "~data/shapes/player/player.cs" that handles the TSShapeConstructor datablock that loads and merges the animations for you.
That's the simple way -- a direct replacement of the orc. Beyond that point there are several resources that detail how to have a character selection screen, and/or multiple races/classes.
