>>56370474I prefer the Dragon Age version where the race of the corrupted mother determines her spawn, an elf mother gives the equivalent of orcs, a dwarf mother gives the equivalent of goblins, a human mother gives the equivalent of bugbears, and a Qunari mother (a race of half-giants) gives birth to ogres.
This easily explains why these evil races always work together, being in fact castes of the same species, somewhat similar to Grimmsnarl.
