Half Orcs in love....

[Pylar]

Sterile?? Why would you want that, then how would us really ugly humans ever reproduce???

 

[Kae'Yoss]

Isn't that a little redundant?

Yea, it's like "wee dwarf" or "annoying gnome".

. I assume a human has two human genes, an elf has two elf genes, and a half elf has one of each.

If you're going to assume that something as mundane and scientific as genetics has any relevance in a fantasy world, you ought to put just a touch more thought into it...

The state of being an orc is going to have a lot more than a single gene controlling it. You're talking about something more similar to dealing with different breeds of dog, where there's mixing of many traits.

A human/orc breeding produces a thing which, on the whole is half human, and half orc.

A human/half-orc breeding produces a thing that's three quarters human, one quarter orc. Halfway between a human and a half-orc. Being far more human than orc, you can probably just imagine that these are just humans.

Simiarly, a orc/half-orc pairing is 75% orc, 25% human. Probably just call it an orc.

Just as reasonably, you can disregard genetics entirely, and call it what you want

Is Orc dominant or resessive?

 

[Mustrum_Ridcully]

Considering the fact that Orcs do - at least in most campaign - not have their own empires and states and are typically a barbarian culture, they don`t seem to be dominant.

Orc is target practice!
