That's going to change, since WotC is removing the ideas of being 'half' anything all together now. Half Orcs are being replaced with full Orcs, and Half Elves are just going to be considered Elves or Humans.
I got around the ugly origin of the race by making them the result of Humans and Orcs first meeting, and an interesting quirk of Humans' 'Chosen One' nature, and the Orcish ability to adapt, made Half-Orcs always breed true with either of their parent races, or each other. Half-Orc + Orc = Half Orc Half-Orc + Human = Half Orc Half-Orc + Half-Orc = Half Orc The reason they're despised isn't just because of the animosity between Orcs and Men (and everything else), but rather Half-Orcs will quite literally out-breed both parent races and supremacists on both sides are horrified by the concept this 'accident' of a race might end up winning by quite literally outnumbering both their parent races.
In 4th edition one mythos of half-orcs is that the god of battle Kord took the strength and resilience of orcs, and the adaptability of humans to make a race of per-eminent warriors that had their own pride and history.
In my world, half-orcs are born with Wereboar Lycanthropy!🐗🐗🐗 They are members of the Gruul Clans of Ravnica and are the mightiest warriors and spell-casters in the guild. 🐗🐗🐗🐗🐗🐗🐗🐗🐗🐗🐗🐗🐗🐗🐗
I hate that humans in whatever fantasy setting they're in are always like "you are different to us? SHUN" (kinda like real life I guess but come on) If I were in a fantasy setting, I'd jump at the chance at having a half-orc lover, I mean, have you seen them bulging *ahem* biceps?
I mean the discrimination makes logical sense as orcs are known to be warmongers who pilliage rape and kill wherever they go and many half orcs especially the ones with more orc blood are just inherently more violent due to their conection with the god Grumsh. Its not like the real world where asside from skin colour we are all the same so discrimination makes no real sense. In dnd there are actual reasons for discrimination that are somewhat justified
They aren't shunned by other orcs infact the mixed blood takes nothing away from there orc strength they simply get smarter from the otherside of there genes so they end up being war chiefs etc with there new found intellect
I always found it weird how half orcs are in the base game but regular orcs aren’t.

@@NyrufaI hate that change
@@CJan65 Quite an awful lot of us do, to be honest...
Most half orc player like to say like he stupid, then imagine full orc who have low int
Why WotC hates racemixing
The second picture was literally so fine. A lot of the other ones were too tbh.

That second picture was literally so fine. So are some of the other ones too tbh.
Ok but why some of them gotta be so hot
Right!
They are supposed to look more orcish but then people draw them as attractive green dudes anyway, not that I’m complaining necessarily.

NGL that sounds pretty damn cool.

Half-orcs can be half-dwarf, or half-ogre

Yes smash

Great joke.
Grumish be praised!
So there black people
Sucks that you have such a low opinion of yourself and your race
