====== Half-Orcs ======
{{tag>Race}}

Half-orcs are the offspring of either a human and an orc or an orc and another half-orc. Rarely is such a mating willingly accepted, so the character's "family tree" is likely more than a little troublesome to him or her.

Half-orcs are usually accepted by orcish communities, but are shunned by most other races, including humans, elves, and dwarves. Some half-orcs choose to join the "civilized" races, turning their backs on their barbaric roots, and are often looking to redeem themselves. Many are heroic souls trying to prove their worth.

Half-orcs have light-colored human skin with just a tinge of orcish coloration, with black hair and small eyes. Their features are harsh and angular, like that of orcs. Their natural life-span is the same as humans, though it is rare when one dies of old age.

  * **[[rules:infravision|Infravision]]**: Half-orcs can see in the infrared spectrum, halving attack penalties (round down) for [[tables:attack-modifiers|bad lighting]].
  * **Outsider**: Half-orcs aren't trusted by most other civilized races, and so subtract 2 from their [[traits:charisma|Charisma]].
  * **Strong**: Half-orcs have some of the strength of their ancestry. They start with a d6 [[attributes:strength|Strength]] attribute instead of a d4.
