I made one back around when the Platest was first released. Mine isn't so different, but is admittedly more based on Forgotten Realms Gray Orcs and Eberron Orcs.

@OP - Interestingly enough, I also came up with a Orc Ancestry for a Homebrew world I'm working on, and what you made is extremely similar to what I came up with. Great minds I guess.

Anyway, with you permission, I'd like to incorporate some of the things you came up with into mine. Primarily the Heritages.

[David knott 242]

If any ancestry has fixed boosts to two physical stats, it would be orcs.

But should even they have that?

[Reziburno25]

True, I suggest changing their con to wisdom then, as orc shamans trope seems like cliche, so be str,wis,free followed by int flaw. Make them suitable for clerics.

[Ciaran Barnes]

Losing Con bonus seems suitable considering how orcs have been portrayed in cinema for many years. They tend to fall over dead pretty easily. Almost anything would be better than what the 3rd edition orcs got.
