Legolas the Elven Archer

When you create a new character for BG2 you can choose from a number of portraits for your character. Of all those portraits which weren't in BG1 as well, the only one I never found in the game was the Half-Orc.
Is there anyone out there who does not think it's only there for those who want to play with a Half-Orc themselves and can tell me it's name, where to find it or how to unlock it?

It would make quite a nice Easter Egg

There aren't any half-orc NPCs in BG2 - the only reason the picture is there is so the protagonist can use it if he needs it.

The half-orc character was added near the end of the production of the game. They did it in a rush, thats why they didn't have time to make it possible to have a relationship with Viconia, with a half-orc.

It's true its not a lie, they were going to add it in but they didn't have time.
