    [​IMG] What, so orcs and elves are incapable of love? I mean, if you're going to go ahead and discard the "orcs bad, elves good" idea, you might as well consider an orc-elf marriage.

    Shrek, ya'll.

    *shudders*

    Thankies for the mental image. well, at least it drove away the one of Chev in a dress....

    To be serious, even if I am going to scrap the "all orcs are evil" thing, I still can't see my poor elf-orc as a product of a loving relationship.... she is too much of an angsty, tramumatized kind of gal to do so.

    So, what, the half-elf is going to have abused her because s/he was really jealous of the fame of the half-orc with which s/he used to travel? Why be all angsty if found and saved by a kindly half-elf?

    Or is she just a teen-ager? ;)

    Let's see... different from everyone else, not knowibng if there is anyone like her anywhere, the half-elf being old and frail and not ablle to protect her from the sticks and stones all the time... people who have bad experiences with orcs venting them on her.... that sorts of thing.
