Half-Orc |
A recent mingling of Orcish
and Human blood arising as the darker races have encroached further upon the remaining
settled areas, most members of this half-blooded race are distinctly more Orcish than
Human in both appearance and behavior.
Though not as broad nor powerful as full-blood Orcs, Half-Orcs usually retain their wider
bodies, longer, bowed limbs and heavier musculature. A ridged brow crowned by bushy
eyebrows conceals small, squinting eyes; below a snout-like noses opens a maw filled with
crooked fangs; dark skin emanating a rancid odor; their presence disgusts civilized races.
Large and dull of wit, with broad bodies, their poor mental and physical dexterity is
offset by an iron constitution. Though some have dabbled in the sorcerous arts due to
their human influence, brute combat is still the natural call which stirs in the soul of
the Half-Orc. All Half-Orcs possess infravision, and most stand from five to seven feet
tall and averaging two hundred pounds. An altogether fearsome race.
Half-Orc's can follow the ways of the following classes: Thief Warrior Vampire Bladesinger
Half-Orc's gain experience on a scale of normal rate * 0.94, and make their home on Mount
