			Orcs are [[evil]], brutish [[humanoid]]s that live in tribes and sustain themselves through [[hunting]], [[war]]s, and raids. They can mate with [[human]]s, siring [[half-orc]] children<ref>[[Monstrous Manual]]</ref><ref>[[Monster Manual (3.5)]]</ref> Though native to may [[outlander world]]s, they are alien to the realms of the [[Demiplane of Dread]], not appearing even in [[legend]]. Because of this, no half-orcs are native to the Demiplane of Dread, their roles instead played by [[caliban]]s<ref>[[Ravenloft Third Edition]] p. 30</ref>.

			Of the lycanthropic strains, orcs are most vulnerable to the phenotypes of the [[wereboar]] and [[wererat]], having a strong resistance to other strains<ref>[[Van Richten's Guide to Werebeasts]] p.</ref><ref>[[Van Richten's Monster Hunter's Compendium II]] p. 161</ref>. However, a number of [[werebadger]] orcs are known to exist, somewhat lesser in population than werebadger [[dwarves]]<ref>VRGtW p. 86</ref>.

			Orc [[lycanthrope]]s are not marked by any special traits indicating [[race]] while in beast form, save for the possible exception of excessive drooling<ref>VRGtW p.</ref><ref>VRMHC II p. 163</ref>.
