Dark Legacy :: manual races Ogre
Ogre
Tall, powerful and deadly in combat; the prototypical warrior.
The typical Ogre stands from eight to ten feet tall in height and is known for
its muscle-packed body that can weigh from three to four hundred pounds. Most
are relatively hairless, their bodies are covered with small, boney growths,
and their disproportionately long limbs give them a somewhat simian appearance.
Usually solitary creatures, ogres form clans with whatever races they can
muster. Ogres thrive in positions of power and control, using their strength
and cunning to force their will upon weaker races. Ogres in power are
unrelenting, cruel, and hard to dethrone, even by underhanded scheming. Ogres
are gluttonous and belligerent, and being extremely territorial, most Ogres
will readily engage in battle to establish superiority over anyone it
encounters. Some Ogres settle in the civilized world, ruling kingdoms of crime
from the shadows. Like orcs they have a very bad reputation, but know how to
play society to suit their needs.
