Half-Orc

Scarred and Strong
Half-orcs exhibit a blend of orcish and other characteristics, and their appearance varies widely. Grayish skin tones and prominent teeth are the most common shared elements among these folk.   Many orcs regard battle scars as tokens of pride and ornamental scars as things of beauty. Any half-orc who has lived among or near orcs has scars, whether they are marks of humiliation or of pride, recounting their past exploits and injuries.
