Orc

Along with their brute strength and comparatively low intellect, the primary difference between orcs and the civilized humanoids is their attitude. As a rule, orcs are violent and aggressive, with the strongest ruling the rest through fear and brutality. They take what they want by force and think nothing of slaughtering or enslaving villages when they can get away with it. They have little time for niceties or details, and their camps and villages tend to be filthy, ramshackle affairs filled with drunken brawls, pit fights, and other sadistic entertainment. Lacking the patience for farming and only able to shepherd the most robust and self-sufficient animals, orcs almost always find it easier to take what someone else has built than to create things themselves. They are arrogant and quick to anger when challenged, but only worry about honor so far as it directly benefits them to do so.
Those few orcs that become adventurers are outcasts or single survivors of tribal wars. Although still quickly angered, these orcs often have a greater sense of honor and law than their tribal kin.
Play an orc if you want…

• to be a strong and proud warrior.
• to be a lone survivor or outcast, but still a savage at heart.
• to be a member of a race that favors the barbarian, druid, fighter and oracle classes.
