SRD:Half-Orcs (Race)
Half-Orcs
Also see the orc creature listing.
These orc–human crossbreeds can be found in either orc or human society (where their status varies according to local sentiments), or in communities of their own. Half-orcs usually inherit a good blend of the physical characteristics of their parents. They are as tall as humans and a little heavier, thanks to their muscle. They have greenish pigmentation, sloping foreheads, jutting jaws, prominent teeth, and coarse body hair. Half-orcs who have lived among or near orcs have scars, in keeping with orcish tradition.

gollark: Yes, it just seems like a ridiculous conspiracy theory.

gollark: Like someone said in the comments, they can just run it all the way to the heat death of the universe instantly and fix that.
