Orc

Orc Traits

  • Tusked. You have two tusks you can use as natural weapons that deal STR +d4 damage.
  • Big. Orcs are bigger than most and have a Size of +1. This means your Toughness gets a +1 bonus and your maximum Strength goes up a die type. This also means most non-orc equipment will not fit you right. Unless your equipment is fitted properly for you, you'll take a -2 penalty to Trait rolls while wearing it. Unless you are in an Orcish area, your equipment, food, and clothing are likely to cost you double that of your non-Orc companions.
  • Hardy. Orcs have durable, thick hide that means if you are already Shaken, a second shaken result will not cause you a Wound.
  • Coordinated Strength. You innately have the brute edge. You treat Athletics as linked to Strength instead of Agility for purposes of Advancement. You may also resist Athletics Tests with Strength if you choose.
