The 2020 Errata has updated things like the Kobold and Orc in Volos to remove their negative stat modifiers. And in the case of the Orc, to replace its “Menacing” Trait with a new one called “Primal Intuition.” I’m probably just going to remove the negative stat bonuses, and let people use adjustments if they want to go back down to how it was before.

I ’m working through the errata changes as a warm-up to get back into editing full-steam. I’m hoping to have Theros done and out soon, and am hoping to get caught up on some of the backlog until Tasha’s comes out next month. I don’t even want to think about how we’ll handle the new variant rules on racial stat bonuses, but that’s a topic for another day.

My question is how the community would want this to be handled. I think the old version of the Orc should still be available, in case players don’t want to update their own Orc PC. Should we just make it a different race and call the old one “Orc (Pre-Errata)”? Or should we update the Orc with an option or adjustment to switch back to the old trait?

I’m inclined to do the latter, but I want to hear your opinions either way.
