Ok so I added races to the list. Any thoughts? any thoughts on adding more races?

Just one question, you say you dislike half-Orcs but have half-Elves, any particular reason for this?

well its simple really. When you have Half-Elves, someone says "so whats your deal?" then you say:

"Well my mom was a hot elf chick, my dad was a cool human warrior who bedded said elf chick."

But when you're a half-orc its:

"well my mom was a human peasant who was brutally raped by an orc. Then she had me."

or

"Well my dad was a human warrior who got it on with a green tusk mouthed klingon-like warrior woman"

I just feel it's weird to have half-orcs, why not half-dwarves? or half-gnomes? why not just Orc orcs?

I dunno, I just don't really like that idea. Half-Elves for me already fit the role that we see in Hidalgo, not quite fitting with mom or dad's race. Why do we need another race that does that?

plus I'm  not saying that in your Shattered Horizons game you can't include Half-Orcs. or if someone REALLY REALLY wants to be a Half-Orc. They just aren't a big enough role to need an entry
