 ===Half-Orcs in Orc Society===
-Half-orcs born in orcish tribes tend to be treated as curiosities. They are disadvantaged in terms of raw strength and therefore tend to excel in other roles such as cleaning, cooking, and animal husbandry. The main exception to this rule are half-dwarf orcs who are able match their full-blooded brethren for strength and can even land warrior roles. Half-Orcs can also become experts of their field that other tribe members may neglect such as jewelers for appraising gems, astronomers for navigation, and scribes for recording tribal history. Despite this, half-orcs are almost always subverted from tribe leadership due to wavering doubts of loyalty to orcs for a mixed-parent tribe leader.

Many of Arthos' most famous and infamous adventurers were of mixed parentage.

 ===Half-Dwarves in Dwarf Society===
-Dwarves tend to think of half-dwarves, or "alloy kin", as burdensome. While abandonment is rare, a half-dwarf is treated as something that should be hidden because of their inability to fit (sometimes literally) into dwarf society. Dwarf families will usually hide away half-dwarves for fear of ostracization until they  grow the confidence to leave on their own volition. Little is expected of the alloy kin who choose to stay.
+Dwarves tend to think of half-dwarves, or "alloy kin", as simply too tall. While abandonment is rare, a half-dwarf will have difficulty fitting into dwarven society (quite literally) and will yearn to abandon the underground cities of Clie-Skesh as soon as they grow the confidence to leave on their own volition. Little is expected of the alloy kin who choose to stay, as their physical size can become quite a detriment in tight corridors and tunnels of populated dwarven areas. Half dwarves born outside the cities will typically enjoy a much simpler lifestyle and find much better upbringing from their mixed parentage when not confined to the population hotspots of Clie-Skesh.

 ===Half-Humans in Human Society===
-Humans tend to have the most liberal and egalitarian attitude towards half-races of all kinds with the caveat that they are able-bodied and contribute meaningfully to society. This is because majority human settlements already tend towards diversity of race and unrestricted commerce. However, the wealthier of a family half-humans are born into, the more likely they are to face cultural stigmatization since upper-class families are especially concerned with lineage and primogeniture.
