Half-Orcs are crossbreeds between a ?Human and an Orc. Sometimes how this happens is when both live in the same region, other times it's not worth thinking about. They live either in Orcish settlements and are part of the tribe, or are found in human settlements, usually living in the slums. In many cases they follow the usual Orc pantheon led by Gruumsh, though there are rumours of others that follow two brother gods from an other dimension altogether. They have strong and tough giving them ability score increases of +2 Strength and +1 Constitution (already in Ability Scores). As for age they regularly hit adulthood at 14 and have a lifespan up to 75. They are somewhat variable in size ranging from 5 ft to well over 6ft, and still classed as Medium. Their Orc blood gives them Darkvision of 60. With their mindset, reputation for mindless violence and looks, many Half-Orcs are Menacing (gains proficiency in Intimidation), Relentless Endurance (when / if reduced to 0 hit points but not killed outright, they can drop to 1 hit point instead. After this it can't be done again until after a long rest ), and Savage Attacks (when scoring a critical hit with a melee attack, one of the damage dice can be rolled one additional time and have it added to the critical hit).
