Hanging in there. Better than the alternative.
Just wanted to emphasize this.Izerath said:Don't force anything, always make choices available.
Ask the player. What's his take on it? It's possible he considers his low Int as a crutch, making it difficult to play his character any differently. Maybe he'd prefer an Int-boosting item? Sure, he'll probably have to pay for it, but it'll give him more flexibility. He also has to worry about Int damage.
To try to develop his character more, I'd try to make a situation that will help him in that regard. Maybe he meets a tribe of Half-Orcs -- he'll probably be the best ambassador. He can relate to the other Half-Orcs. Try to set up some Half-Orc social situations. Show him there's more to being a Half-Orc than hitting things, and maybe he'll embrace his character more.
