swarthy, squint-eyed ‘Southrons’ to<br />

near-total Orc-hood, all have similar<br />

statistics. These are given on page 292<br />

of The Lord of the Rings core rulebook,<br />

and on page 29 of Fell Beasts<br />

and Wondrous Magic.<br />

Men of the White Hand<br />

So far, Saruman has bred only<br />

a few Men crossed with Half-orcs.<br />

These ‘Quarter-orcs’ bear only a taint<br />

of Orc-ancestry, though they share<br />

the Orc-tendency towards ill-doing.<br />

The mongrel Men of the White Hand<br />

cannot be distinguished from ordinary<br />

men by appearance, so Saruman<br />

uses them to infiltrate courts across<br />

Middle-earth where Half-orcs would<br />

be noticed. Saruman intends to use<br />

Men of the White Hand as ambassadors<br />

once Sauron is overthrown.<br />

Men of the White Hand have the<br />

same statistics as standard Half-orcs,<br />

modified as follows:<br />

aDvancementS: +3<br />

StatiSticS: +2 ranks Armed<br />

Combat: Blades (Daggers), +2<br />

ranks Guise, +2 ranks Insight, +2<br />

ranks Persuade, +1 rank Stealth,<br />

+1 Bearing, +1 Wits<br />

equiPment: Fine clothing, disguise,<br />

dagger, kingly gifts (if on errands<br />

for Saruman), riding horse (if away<br />

from Isengard)<br />

Dûr-edain<br />

These Half-orcs, whose name<br />

means ‘Dark Men,’ are bred from<br />

Uruk-hai and Men. They bear little<br />

resemblance to Men, exhibit more<br />

cunning than Uruk-hai, and suffer<br />

none of the Orc-hatred for daylight.<br />

Their statistics are like those of<br />

standard Half-orcs with the following<br />

modifications.<br />

aDvancementS: +3<br />

StatiSticS: replace initial <strong>order</strong> with<br />

barbarian, replace initial <strong>order</strong> ability<br />

with Hard March, add flaw<br />

Orc-ancestry, replace Appraise<br />

skill with Climb, replace Conceal<br />

The White Hand<br />

skill with Jump, replace Guise skill<br />

with Intimidate, replace Persuade<br />

skill with Ranged Combat: Bows<br />

(Shortbow), +3 ranks Armed<br />

Combat: Blades (Scimitars), +2<br />

ranks Intimidate, +2 ranks Ranged<br />

Combat: Bows (Shortbow), +1<br />

Drú-uruk<br />

The Drúedain of the Drúwaith<br />

Iaur are a primitive race, ancient and<br />

secretive. Saruman, fascinated by their<br />

nature, <strong>order</strong>ed his Orc-scouts to capture<br />

some, and then interbred them<br />

with his other creations. The results<br />

were ugly and squat, more primitive<br />

than either race but possessing great<br />

woodcraft and vigour. Saruman let<br />

the breed continue, though he has had<br />

little luck capturing further Woses to<br />

expand his handful of Drú-uruk, or<br />

‘Wose-goblins.’ These creatures are<br />

described by standard Half-orcs statistics<br />

modified as follows.<br />
