Half-Orc

The result of unions between Orcs and other mortal races, to call a Half-Orc a 'watered-down Orc' would be a grave insult to the skills that a member of this Humanoid species can hold.

The Best of Both Worlds

While a Half-Orc inherits the stronger emotions and half the strength of their Orcish parents, they often inherit some positive traits from their other parents as well. A Half-Orc with Human blood, for example: they would be as hardy as their Orcish parent, while having the cunning and resourcefulness of their Human parent. Orcs have coupled with other races then Humans for many centuries, and the most common pairings are with Dark Elves, Goblins. But couplings between the Hoarfrost Orcs and Dwarves was historically also not out of the question.
