Orc characters

Orcs are kept separate from half-orcs here, and the difference shows. These lean further into the war kit: a jawbone charm knotted to a belt, fresh warmarks painted over old ones, a chain shirt crusted with dried blood and bay salt. Barbarian leads, but there are clerics and paladins in here too.

Skin goes beyond grey-green into rocky charcoal, deep ochre, slate green, dark olive and a blue-grey barbarian with wild crimson hair. Hair is often long and braided, sometimes with feathers, and scars and tribal tattoos show up across the arms and face. Women slightly outnumber men, which is the reverse of the half-orcs. The classes spread wide, with warlocks, rogues and an artificer who looks forged as much as born. Several are painted or drawn in anime and ink styles. If you are choosing between orc and half-orc, the war kit is the clearest difference.
