Homebrew Dwa-Krew Species Details
The Dwa-Krew are a humanoid race, tracing ancestry to a coupling of a half-orc and a half-elf. As such, their offspring was one-quarter orc, one-quarter elf, and half human. The peculiar way that the mental and physical attributes manifested themselves in these children lead many to call the group of them by the two parents surnames.
