Now that sounds like a fun story.I don't agree with WotC's changing of the half-orc backgrounds.  I'd rather they *not* explain their origin & let the player's be creative.  You don't want the negative flavor in the game?  Then come up with something - like was suggested in the original article.Why go to all the trouble of stating that all half-orcs come from some historic past event?   Personally, I'd hate to have a character's back-story pulled out from underneath me.   I'd rather they just leave it unstated and let the players and DMs decide how the half-orc was created.  I hate to say it, but it really feels like WotC is migrating toward "Rated G" games -- no matter what the age or maturity of the people playing them.</blockquote>
