d8: Race-as-Class! Orc

Here's something I cooked up an posted elsewhere a long time ago, but forgot to post here.

Orc

Dragon Quest

Orcs are boar-like, warmongering humanoids. At times they get employed by villainous overlords as ruthless mercenaries, other times they create their own matriarchal societies.
HD: d6
To-hit, Saves: as Thief
EXP, Prime Requirement: as Dwarf
Restrictions: Weapons, Armor and Shields as fighter
Orcs are Omnivorous and have Fine Noses, and are Accustomed to Darkness. Their society is divided in casts based on their Sexual Dimorphism.
Omnivorous: as they are used to eat almost everything, Orcs gain a +3 bonus to saves against poison.
Fine Nose: Orcs gain a +1 bonus to tracking.
Accustomed to Darkness: Orcs have Infravision, but get a -1 malus to their to-hit rolls when in daylight.
Sexual Dimorphism:

• Male Orcs have the restrictions of a Thief, but also the abilities of a Thief of half their level, rounded up.
• Female Orcs may either have no additional restrictions/abilities, or choose to have the restrictions of a Cleric, but also the spellcasting of a Cleric of half their level, rounded up (but no turning).

Female Orcs may advance up to level 9, male Orcs to level 8. At level 9 a female Orc becomes a Queen Matriarch and may start her own Sounder, attracting other Orcs, both male and female, under her command. A male Orc of level 8 becomes a Boarlord and may organize a Raiding Party, attracting other male orcs; an Orc Raiding Party may act as an independent mercenary company for hire, or swear fealty to a Queen Matriarch, paying a tithe but gaining reproduction rights.
