Editing Oruk (section)

==Relations==
Oruk face considerable prejudices and are often loners. Orcs have little use for oruk, seeing them as tainted halfbreeds. Likewise, ogres despise the oruk, but are too lazy or indifferent to expend the effort to eradicate them. Dwarves consider oruk to be as distasteful as other giants, even more so due to the oruk’s orc heritage. Elves generally distrust them and even gnomes, usually accepting of other races, find oruk companionship undesirable.

Halflings are more tolerant of oruk, as are half-elves, but oruk are most comfortable around humans and half-orcs. Humans and half-orcs respect the oruk’s ability to overcome adversity, the half-orcs particularly as they know the hardships that come with an orc heritage. Oruk also get along well with soulmechs, as they too are creatures drawn from two worlds, yet uniquely different from each.

Dragons and their kin find the oruk to be particularly useful. While the oruk tend to engage in freethinking, a trait not always desirable in a soldier, the dragons find them to be relatively easy to control, if necessary. The drow have begun employing the techniques of their dragon masters, but are not nearly as successful.
