Half-orcs are the rare offspring of orcs and humans. They are human-like in stature and appearance, but usually have at least one feature that marks their orcish heritage (e.g. fangs or a pig-like snout). Due to the common animosity between orcs and humans, half-orcs are typically outcasts from both their parent cultures, living on the fringes of society and making a living by whatever means they can.
