OD&D Races & Classes for PCs & NPCs 005

Orcs – They divide themselves into numerous tribes spread across the world, warlike, cruel and bloodthirsty, almost as intelligent as men but due to their nature they do not progress very much. They are low in wisdom and are content to live on the spoils of war. They will negotiate and but rarely keep their agreements, there are times when the can be traded with, but watch your back. They live in villages and caves. They are not pig faced, but do have a very prominent long jaw and a sloping forehead. When large numbers of them arise they will form into armies that march on the nearest civilized area to burn and pillage and reclaim territory for themselves. Orcs average about 6 1/2 feet in height.

Hobgoblins – Everything you can say about goblins and kobolds applies to hobgoblins except they are about the same intelligence as humans and are like orcs in being warlike, cruel and bloodthirsty and savage. Hobgoblins average about 7 feet in height and are fearless. They are favored by other races as elite troops, whereas orcs are viewed as cannon fodder to use a more modern term.
