The sand orcs of Gaeleth tend to have a number of adaptations to living in the
deserts and high deserts of Gaeleth. Their hair tends to be gray or white
in color, and rather straight and oily. Sand orcs tend to have thick,
leathery skin that ranges in color from light brown, to green, to near-black,
with several shades in-between. Sand orcs also tend to be more intelligent
than other varieties of orcs, perhaps because of the intense competition for
limited resources in the deserts. Because they have been exposed to the
extreme brightness of the desert days, the sand orcs have lost their light
sensitivity.
Sand orcs tend to be found in western Halganath, and are epitomized in the Ogre Nations of the Choranil Desert. Female sand orcs tend to have litters of orclings; females roll 2d4 to determine the number of children each has.
