Homebrew Tanarukk Species Details

A Tanarukk is a breed of orc whose blood had been tainted by an evil outsider, in many cases a tanar'ri demon. Like a Tiefling is to a Human, a Tanarukk is to an Orc. 

Tanarukk usually appear as short, stocky orcs with bristly hair, horns, or ridges along the sides of their heads. Their skin tones range from grayish green and dull brown though they can typically be any color depending on their fiendish heritage. They typically display razor-sharp teeth and tusks that jut out prominently from their lower jaws. Tanarukks sometimes also have the distinctive smell of brimstone about them.
