Half-Orcs should be treated as subraces by NPCs
-
There was a recent module change that stated subrace PCs should be disgusted and/or feared by most NPCs and merchants. Given Arabel's recent history with the White Witch (whose army was filled with orcs) and the region's history with orcs as a whole (the King's Forest was frequently raided by orc warbands back in the day) it seems reasonable the same disgust and fear would extend to half-orcs as well.

@Prof-Misclick said in Lawbook of the Kingdom of Arabel:

- Humans
- Half-Elves
- Half-Orcs
- Elves
- Dwarves
- Halflings
- Gnomes
- Kenkus

Right, half-orcs are currently considered civilized. I'm of the opinion that even if they're citizens, there should be considerable prejudice against them by NPCs and merchants due to recent events.

It entirely designed around ECL subraces having drawbacks.
We don't want to make playing a standard race have any real drawbacks beside the usual stat changes. It's IC, with a tad of "designed like this to fit OOC reasons."
