A picture of a skinny female orc with the side of her head shaved. She wears an armless red dress and a black shawl, as well as matching red bracelets and a black choker with a gold heart at the front.
At the top of the image is the text "You may not like it, but this is what" in large bubble font
At the bottom of the image is a screenshot from the new D&D changelog, reading "• Orcs no longer have the Powerful Build feature."
And below that, the text "Peak 2024 D&D orc performance looks like" continues the bubble font from the top.
God dammit I really need to finish and polish the mixed heritage homebrew doc I have. Sometimes I want to be a half-orc-half-gnome and the game should let me
the new 2024 rules allow for this. All half races/species have been removed, and instead you get to mix and match any two you want.
They allow for it, but mechanically you still just pick one. The one I knocked together and mean to refine gives every species for traits, so a three-quarter-drow quarter-dwarf person is actually (slightly) mechanically different to a half-drow half-dwarf one
