Homebrew Elf-Orc Hybrid Species Details
Wherever you came from and wherever you go, you are met with mixed looks and emotions. Your parent races are so diametrically opposed that they have never gotten along, but your existence proves that culture permeable. This scares some but elates others, and everyone has different attitudes on even the most simple aspects of your existence, namely being your existence.
Two deities wage war over the inheritance of your soul, Gruumsh and Corellon. From their blood did the two conflicting races emerge, and your existence is an insult to them both. They wish to claim you on one side, to force you to reject one culture, the one that isn't theirs. Who you side with (if you choose to side at all) is up to you, but these gods' conflict will forever be a part of your life.
