Ogre

Overview

Brutish savage. Fearsome warriors. Terrifying magi. All these phrases have been used by other races to describe the ferocious Ogre.

Ogres have a very complex culture based on the worship of spirits and the afterlife. This is the basis of the most vulger aspect of their society: they are the only 'civilized' race known to eat other humanoids! In truth, however, ogres have not only a highly advanced digestive tract [indeed, reports from the northern settlements have told of large areas of trees being devoured by ogres unable to find other game] but the eating of their enemies is considered [for them] to be a way to take that opponent's abilities into themselves. Whether or not this is true, it certainly makes for a frightening story to tell oneself around the campfire on those dark evenings when something is howling in the distance.

Ogres are massive creatures, easily the largest of the civilized races on Kallisti. They are possessed of thick hide and large muscle structures, with general colouring covering the human range. As a race, they are considered by most to be slow-witted and, frankly, grossly inept. However, once in a great while, a blue-skinned ogre emerges from the rest with a keen intelligence and takes up the power of the feared Ogre-Magi of old. Most seasoned adventurers shiver at the prospect of facing an Ogre-Mage in combat and steer clear of areas in which they have been sighted.
