Ogre
"You messin' with my pal, eh? Try messin' with me!"
The hulking brutes of the world that are strong enough to make their home wher they wish to.
Description
The first thing you notice about Ogres is their broad physique and tremendous strength. The second thing is the... Lack of education common amongst the Ogre people. While Ogres can be as intelligent as other people, the solitary nature tends to make sharing of information difficult amongst them. Ogres are solitary normally, but social Ogres are known. Ogres that like company tend to form gangs of up to ten Members. Ogres who make friends become fiercely loyal to them.
Ogres are seven to eight and-a-half feet tall, live to be about one-hundred and fifty years old, and often have skin tones in a variety of pale colors. They have a broad forehead and pointed ears, a broad nose that is resistant to breaking, and small eyes under a heavy brow.
