Half-breed[1] (aka crossbreeds)[2] are any species or individual biologically related to at least two separate species. The term half-breed was used by orcs and ogres to refer to Rexxar in the Third War.[3] Half-orcs, half-elves, and half-ogres are examples of half-breeds.[4] (APG 34, 36) [5] (HPG #?) Rexxar and Med'an are examples of half-breeds. It can be used as either a technical[6] or derogatory term. Half-breeds are occasionally treated as hybrid races, though the reverse may not always true.
While some custom character models may be created for especially notable half-breeds, they are typically represented in World of Warcraft by existing models.

- Half-giant
- Ogre (half-breed) (Different than the full-blooded ogre race.)
