Homebrew Dune Orc (HD) Species Details

Orcs in the Hourglass Desert have lost their cultural connection to Gruumsh and other gods of chaos, losing traits like darkvision but gaining other adaptations to their world. They are much more organised, efficient, and forward-thinking than their material brethren, but this does not always mean that alliances are easier to make. Raids from some dune orc tribes continue to be a thorn in the side of "proper" civilisation even while other tribes attempt to foster trade.
