Will there be Subraces options for Half-Elf / Half-Orc ancestries?
Like together in one character? That would be fun. I homebrewed a race that's half elf and half orc. It's assuming the parents are an elf and an orc rather than both being half human.
I was refering to the subraces of half-elf and half-orc dude. Like, half-ekujae elf (wildborn) or half-jungle orc (rainkin) or half-mordant spire elf (spireborn), etc etc.
With the way the half-elf/ half-orc heritage feats are written, those would all have to be individual heritage feats of their own.
You can't really do that in 2e since that would require the player getting two heritage feats when you can only get one.

That isn't what I mean. I mean there would be distinct individual heritage for feats for:
half-elfhalf-drow
half-sea elf
half rain orc
half spire elf
half wild elf
and etc, etc, etc on to infinity.
And in addition to its own special snowflake heritage feat, each would need its own special snowflake category of feats to choose from. So you'd need feat categories for drow, sea elves, rain orcs, spire elves and so on. And the character would be able to choose from that, human feats or half elf feats. Or possibly generic elf/orcs feats and half<whichever> feats, depending on which way you want to complicate this.
It's a messy system.
Or you don't do that and just call them half elves and half orcs and don't worry about it.
Have we seen subraces for elf or orc yet? I wonder what mechanically a half-ekujae would have vs. a normal half-elf.
werent those subraces basically the standard half-whatsitsname with the option for like one or two individual feats/traits?
I guess they could be handled similar
