I have no problem with almost always evil drow if they are from a twisted society.in my campaign orcs are conquerors and raiders like Vikings.  Raise one in a town that treats the orc child like a valued member of the group and there is going to be the possibility of some other outcome.having some “Viking” ancestry does not make me a raider.  I am a lover and not a fighter.  I don’t even know if I want to eat meat forever.   But I have that heritage or “blood.”for me if you have an inherently evil group it’s because of evil magic (demons) or because the only examples we see come from a certain group.this in fact is making me want to play a lawful good half orc as we speak…also got a thing for neutral duergar.  Go figure.</blockquote>
