-Lava Orc is a relatively easy species to play. Like [[Hill Orc]]s, Lava Orcs have high HP and above-average aptitudes, especially in melee combat. In addition, Lava Orcs have natural AC from Stoneskin, and rF+ (which can easily get to rF+++).
+Lava Orc is a relatively easy species to play. Like [[Hill Orc]]s, Lava Orcs have high HP and above-average aptitudes, especially in melee combat. In addition, Lava Orcs have natural AC from Stoneskin and rF+ (which can easily get to rF+++ where it counts).
 The main difference between Lava Orcs and most species is their temperature mechanic. This prevents you from reading some of the best emergency items ([[scroll of teleport]] / [[scroll of blinking]]) in dangerous situations. However, you'll also deal extra fire damage to enemies, somewhat making up for that.

-Lava Orcs were considered for inclusion in [[0.13]], [[0.14]], and [[0.15]], but were ultimately removed before being included in any stable version.  Prior to 0.13, they had existed in Erocrawl, an experimental version of Crawl, for a long time (since around the [[0.9]]-era).  This was the same branch of Crawl that gave rise to [[octopode]]s.
