Half-Orc

Half-orcs are a fairly common sight in areas where orc clans regularly attack human settlements. Most half-orcs stay with the orc clans where they are more easily accepted. When they do venture out into the world they are often feared, spat upon and mistrusted. A half-orc needs to work hard to rise above the prejudice against his race.
Most half-orcs are born from an, often involuntary, union between a human and an orc, but not all half-orcs are infertile. Children have been known to be born to two half-orc parents.

  • to play a big and intimidating force with a healthy respect for strength.
  • to be quick to anger and possess the resilience to keep going in any fight.
  • to be a member of a race that favors the barbarian, oracle and ranger classes.
