Raised By Orcs Raised by Orcs

rdfs:comment

Orphanhood is a terrible state to be in. There's Parental Abandonment, being shipped off to the Orphanage of Fear and being constantly rejected as an outsider. Of course, the foster parents will likely be neglectful or outright abusive. And then there's Raised By Orcs. Of course, having not come from the Always Chaotic Evil stock, evil is not In the Blood for them and is "all nurture", so they're prime Heel Face Turn material. This can actually escalate if their foster parent(s) do love them, and the Orc Raised adult manages a community wide turn. Examples of Raised by Orcs include: Requirements : All Description : You were a runaway orphan, homeless and starving, when an orcish family in the wilderness took you in and raised you. Their brutish ways have left you with increased Strength (+2) and Perception (+2), as well as a bonus to all Combat skills (+1). Unfortunately, your upbringing has also taken its toll on your personality, and you have a severe penalty to Charisma (-6).

Requirements : All Description : You were a runaway orphan, homeless and starving, when an orcish family in the wilderness took you in and raised you. Their brutish ways have left you with increased Strength (+2) and Perception (+2), as well as a bonus to all Combat skills (+1). Unfortunately, your upbringing has also taken its toll on your personality, and you have a severe penalty to Charisma (-6). Orphanhood is a terrible state to be in. There's Parental Abandonment, being shipped off to the Orphanage of Fear and being constantly rejected as an outsider. Of course, the foster parents will likely be neglectful or outright abusive. And then there's Raised By Orcs. The child isn't so much raised by a pack of wolves or even natives (who while foreign or wild, genuinely love the child), but by their Always Chaotic Evil equivalents. Usually the orphan is from an orc raid, and his or her adopted parent(s) took them in out of either a rare display of paternal/maternal instinct, or to spite their human foes by twisting their children into cruel mockeries of themselves. Their life will probably consist of Training From Hell coupled with nihilistic life lessons, and focus on combat over social interaction. They will be taught Might Makes Right, that Asskicking Equals Authority, and to worship their God of Evil if they have one. Of course, having not come from the Always Chaotic Evil stock, evil is not In the Blood for them and is "all nurture", so they're prime Heel Face Turn material. This can actually escalate if their foster parent(s) do love them, and the Orc Raised adult manages a community wide turn. While Orc is part of the trope name, the group need not be inhuman fantasy creatures, any evil human or non-human group will do. However this trope and the Heel Face Turn becomes much more pronounced if they're not human looking. Examples of Raised by Orcs include:
