With the father being the human parent .... hmmmm.
I vote for a barbarian human father and a slightly different takes on elves and orcs compared to stereotypes ...
The orc mother would have to be "noble savage" in the World of Warcraft/Klingon style (along with zero fat and six-pack abs) while the elf mother would have to be a "wyld fey" type with leaves and vines for clothes and a feral look in her eye (along with that wolf girl/woman thing going on). Both types might allow a strong, dominating male human to enter in a passionate, whirlwind romance with them ... only to leave him on impulse after the child was delivered. On that note, the wild fey may have had her romance after the orc woman.
We also forget that human standards of beauty change over the centuries. The flat tummy/huge cleavage thing is pretty recent in human history. For a longer time, the full-figured woman with broad child-bearing hips has been idolized. There was a time that a small ches was perfered, more as a sign that the girl hadn't had a child yet and thus your heirs would be her first born, further insuring you fortune was tied to your name.
With this Ghengis Khan idea barbarian idea, perhaps he courted the woman just to prove his prowess was so legendary that no woman, no matter the race, could stop herself. The real question is, what sort of life did these children tied as such to such a cheiftan?
On the "elf-orc" idea.
Such a strange child, a "fey-orc?" would only come into being on the edges of human habitation where life was so harsh that might and survival was more important than race. Perhaps out on a jungle island or the harsh northern lands?
