Homebrew Orc - Leyfarer Species Details

Among the tallest people in the Nine Kingdoms, orcs can grow to be over six feet in height, with dense muscles, skin ranging from chartreuse to olive green, and two prominent tusks jutting upwards from their lower jaw. The orcs of the Riverlands traditionally migrate with the sun, as their limited ability to absorb sunlight for nutrients is the reason for their green skin. Their orcish ancestors used their tusks to strip bark from trees, as their powerful physiology requires them to consume energy wherever they can get it. The word “orc” is derived from “orok,” which means “of the valley” in the orcish language
