Orcs tend to be about the same height as elves but tend to be of heavier
build and more stoop-shouldered. Hobgoblins are between six and seven
feet in height with a lean muscular build, and Greater Orcs tend to be
between seven and eight feet in height with a heavier build and gait.
Fausts are bony humanoids with jet black skin and slightly demonic
features.
All Orc kindred have skin of varying in color from dark grey to light green.
Orcs and their kin tend to be motivated by greed and lust for power. Orcs
tend to be more cautious and fearful when they are alone, but often
become brave and foolhardy in great numbers. Hobgoblins and Greater
Orcs do not tend to be afraid of traveling alone, but they do not frequent
too many human settlements since they are usually not very welcome.
Hobgoblins & Greater Orcs tend to be the military leaders of large groups
of orcs or goblins. Fausts are the solitary hunters in orc society and more
often than not are spies & assassins. A faust typically follows its prey
carefully for a while from a distance, studying it, and waiting for the right
moment to attack. Faust typically hunt alone, but may join parties acting as
a spy or assassin. Faust are self centered and find it difficult to overcome
their tendency to steal and kill, but if the flow of money and bloodshed is
good in a group they will deny their tendency for theft and betrayal. There
is no known idea of how long a Faust can live, none have ever been known
to die of old age.
Orc kindred tend to avoid elven and dwarven settlements, and will attack
them more often then not. Orc kindred avoid associating with most of the
other races except when they target one of their camps or settlements for a
raid. Orc kindred are working more with the others races in recent years
since the shadowswarm have multiplied and taken over their homelands in
the wilderness and wasteland areas. Orcs tend to live about 60 years,
Hobgoblins tend to live about 100 years, and Greater Orcs tend to live
about 300 years.
1. Orcs and faust see in the dark with infra-vision at 150 feet. Hobgoblins
and Greater Orcs see in the dark with infra-vision at 300 feet. This vision
allows them to see heat signatures of living beings and geo-thermal
signatures from other heat sources. They cannot read or see fine details
with this sight, but it allows +15% to tracking any being with a heat
signature.
2. Orc kindred are immune (3 X EN) to most diseases.
3. Orcs may begin adventuring with sub-skill that cost 1000 exp or less.
4. Faust may opt to being with 1 rank in Assassin or Bounty Hunter.
5. Hobgoblins and Greater Orcs receive Military Scientist at ½ the required
exp. cost.
6. Faust may move in the dark with near invisibility. They can only be seen
by witchsight or truesight, if fighting in only the light given by a torch or
latern they gain partial shading and +20% to defense.
7. The claws of a faust are very sharp and strong and at PS of 15 their
hands do +1 damage and are class B. Their bite does +1 at 40%.
7. Orc kindred may use one weapon at ½ the required exp. cost, but gain a
10% bonus to strike and +1 to damage when using a scimitar or mace.
8. Orcs make three rolls on the bogey table. Fausts, Hobgoblins & Greater
Orcs make two rolls on the bogey table.
