If this adjustment would lower the character's score to 1 or 2, his score is nevertheless 3.# Medium: As Medium creatures, half-orcs have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size.# Half-orc base land speed is 30 feet.# Darkvision: Half-orcs can see in the dark up to 60 feet. Darkvision is black and white only, but it is otherwise like normal sight, and half-orcs can function just fine with no light at all.# For the purpose of determining the skill points gained at each level, treat the half-orc's intelligence score as being 2 points higher than its actual value.# +2 racial bonus on Intimidate checks.# Orc Blood: For all effects related to race, a half-orc is considered an orc.# Automatic Language: Common. Bonus Languages: Any (other than secret languages, such as Druidic). See the Speak Language skill.# Favored Class: Any.  When determining whether a multiclass half-orc takes an experience point penalty, his or her highest-level class does not count./////////////// HUMAN ///////////////# For the purpose of determining the skill points gained at each level, treat the human's intelligence score as being 2 points higher than its actual value.//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////Although full orcs tend to be agressive and brutish, half-orcs shouldn't fall into such a stereotype.  For languages & favored classes, the half-orc should be treated like the other half-races.The bonus skill points let half orcs have a skill rank total half way between that of a full human and that of a full orc, without cherry picking Intelligence or Charisma, and still coming across as slightly little dulled in RP.  This allows the half-orc to make a good skill monkey tilted towards combat as opposed to interaction.Now, considering that these are full blooded orcs, why can't half-orcs be treated more like half-elves........thus allow them to choose any perfeered class they want.//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////Full Orc subtypes  ( Races of Faerûn )Gray Orc+2 str, -2 int, +2 wis, -2 chaBase Speed 40 ft.  ( this along with Scent = ECL +1)Favored Class: ClericMountain Orc+4 str, -2 int, -2 wis, -2 chaFavored Class: Barbarian//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////</blockquote>
