A picture of a skinny female orc ...
If I'd seen the pic without text, I'd have assumed it's a femboy orc. Which I'd also find funnier since the morphology of female orcs already varies a lot depending on the artist's tastes and intentions whereas male orcs are more consistently depicted with a strong build.
-
My money is on femboy orc as well. Unless she's wearing a super tight binder or something, that looks like visible pecs rather than cleavage.
-
Good guess. That appears to be a character by Dross named Onyx, who is male.

....... there boutta be an explosion in the population of half-orcs.
-
Has anyone seen the bard?
-
[the bard IS the orc and he's getting rizzed by the whole tavern]
XD
-
He'll be in momentarily, hey hey.

…well, no: sixth-edition core rules no longer support half-races, something-something-against-racism?..
-
The solution to racism is not to let them breed together? 😕
-
Iirc it's more of a lexical change: until now, half-something automatically assumed the other half was human, making the human race central in the setting. To allow for more liberty, most (all?) humanoid species will become interbreedable and you can choose the traits from one ancestry or the other.
-
We didn't have half-races in BECMI, despite having a guy who was going by the title "Half-Orc", he was just really ugly.

Inconvenience by snu-snu.

I've always been joking about playing an "orc poet" in Shadowrun as a way to do something totally sub optimal :) TIL that you can also play orc in D&D. And cute orcs can definitely change the world building
-
Yeah the PHB for D&D 5th edition only had half-orcs as a playable race, but they added a full orc race with the 2016 Volo's Guide to Monsters. idk about the 5e remaster though because I haven't played or been interested in following the news of D&D since about mid 2022. I just found this meme on !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone and thought it belonged here!

Playing smart or charismatic orcs is totally fine in Shadowrun, it's not that suboptimal. You have to spend a bit more karma at the start to overcome the lower starting charisma, but it's not bad at all.

So, they’re like a different green version of an elf now?
-
More like a taller version of a goblin
-
Tall Goblin is called a Verdan.

Um, actually, this is not a "bubble font". The font used in this meme is called "Impact", and it's commonly bundled with MS Office. ☝️🤓

Did you read the text in the image?
-
-
Isn't that twink a Goblin, tho?
Also, I'm ok with this, helps diffirentiate them from Goliaths. And Orcs were never potrayed as Goliath-sized.
-
Isn't that twink a Goblin, tho?
...No, it's too easy...
-
we love an easy twink, especially one who's a' Goblin

I don't think they made the 5Essentials Orc Warcraft-color.
-
omg I love the term "5Essentials" to refer to the new edition.

I wish the DnD/roleplaying community wasn't as hopelessly horny as it is.
This community is a bit like a teenager: moody, a bit horny, is better with animals.
I resent that remark!
Tbh I agree that "horny bard fuck dragon" memes are tiring. But I actually didn't read this meme as horny. I thought it was just "hey, you expect your orc to be buff and muscly, but NO! She lithe and slim!" Basically just poking fun at WotC for removing a feature called "powerful build".
... she?
That's a femboy, friend
DM: ... and of course Druids can learn Wild Shape, which allows them to transform into a beast that...
Player: STOP. I want to play that one. A druin or whatever.
I wish it wasn't so obsessed with being upset about miniscule changes.
