Ogres
|
Ogres are huge humanoids, with ugly tempers and voracious appetites. They are fond of treasure, and are often employed as mercenaries by evil races in particular. They tend to have yellowish hides, are covered with wart-like bumps, have black teeth and talons, and purplish eyes with white pupils. Ogres are exceptionally strong and hardy, but are known to be extremely dim-witted and lacking in wisdom. They are excellent in melee combat, but are extremely limited when they attempt to utilize magic. They also have a natural ability to cut fine filets out of corpses.
