Meta:Dromaar
Renaming and canon changes
The Pathfinder Second Edition Remaster Project changed the primary name of half-orcs to dromaars and changed several related canon details. The Remaster also made significant changes to orcs and orc society that affect how dromaars interact with them.
Prior to the introduction of versatile heritages in the Remaster Project, non-human half-orcs did not have mechanics and were suggested in canon sources to be rare or non-existent. The article was updated with details from Player Core that reflect this possibility.
Orcs of Golarion 8 suggested that dromaars' relative physical weakness to orcs caused those raised in orc societies to be enslaved. Player Core overrides this by stating that dromaars are historically valued among orcs for their differences and integrate more easily into orc societies than human societies.
The Inner Sea World Guide 29 suggested that half-orcs were inherently violent and impulsive. Player Core explicitly and retroactively states such assertions are false and the product of active intolerance among non-orc societies.
