Message: <blockquote data-quote="CTD" data-source="post: 538488" data-attributes="member: 7402">I'm setting up a new campaign based on a nation of orc's that has been defeated by a dominant culture that tried to make citizens of the orc survivors. After a generation of effort to civilize the orc's the dominant culture decided to give up and deport the orc's to a newly found land that is not populated.So they are rounding up all  the people who appear to have any orc blood in them and shipping them off.My PC's will be those deported orcs, in a survival game essentially.Starting races will include the standard orc, the half-orc, and the orc-touched which is a human with a trace of orc blood. Perhaps the ears, teeth, nose, or some other physical feature that tells their heritage, but not so much orc blood that the person is an actual half-orc.I'm building a racial template for them, trying to mix the half-orc and the human (to make a quarter-orc I suppose) and would like input on the 'balanced' or not of this idea:+1 STR, -1 CHAMedium SizeBase Speed: 30 feetOrc Blood (for purposes of anything that works against/for orcs)Langugaes: Common, OrcBonus Languages: AnyFavored Class: Fighter+1 Feat at first level+2 skill points at first levelI thought about giving them low light vision (dark vision diluted) but decided that it was probably too much (with the feat and skill bonus from human staying around). I chose favored class Fighter to show that they are brutish like their orc-blood would indicate, but can be more civilized than a barbarian with ease.Ideas? Suggestions? Criticism? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
