-  * **Varied Heritage:** Half-Orcs come from all walks of life, and this may cause them to develop unique experiences. Half-Orcs with this racial trait may select any single racial trait (or alternative trait) belonging to Orcs or their parent race (typically Humans). Doing so causes you to gain that racial trait. This trait replaces Orc Ferocity and Weapon Familiarity. In addition, adjust Orc Blood to count as orcish and you chosen parental race, rather than orcs and humans (if applicable). You must receive approval from your GM to select this trait.
