Bred from orc slaves and demons (vrocks, in particular), tanarukks are a powerful and evil strain of planetouched. They bread true with their own kind or with pureblood orcs. Although an offspring may have only one tanarukk grandparent all the abilities of a tanarukk are preserved. Unlike most planetouched, tanarukks have fairly uniform appearance, resembling short, stocky orcs with stooped postures. They eyes are red and their skin varies from gray-green to dark brown.
