Homebrew Warhammer Ogres Species Details

Ogres are monstrous humanoid creatures, with large, powerful and corpulent bodies, and snarling, brutish and seemingly neck-less heads. An average adult male Ogre stands over ten feet tall and is almost half as wide at the gut. Ogres are often bald as a boulder, although are rarely without facial hair, which is thought to be cultivated to capture morsels of food that escape the Ogre's mouth.

Ogres worship a god they call The Great Maw, a massive, seemingly bottomless pit of hunger in the world lined with rows of fangs. Ogres similarly are voracious creatures which are never sated. Driven by hunger, they will eat anything they get their hands on, including fellow Ogres. Cannibalism is a natural part of the harsh and uncompromising Ogre society and only adds to the Ogres' terrifying reputation.

Ogre society is based upon one simple principle: that might makes right. The strongest may take whatever they like from the weaker, including life and limb. An Ogre who kills another Ogre in a fight has, in the most effective way, shown himself the stronger, and far from having committed any wrongdoing, has merely demonstrated this principle and proven himself to be in the right.

All forms of disputes, such as personal grudges, land disputes and leadership challenges, are settled by contests of physical strength - the most serious questions being answered by contests in the form of a lethal bout of pit-fighting.

Ogres have strong nomadic tendencies, some taking long journeys all around the Warhammer world, where they fight in mercenary armies or for any general who will pay them in gold or sometimes even food.

All Ogres have a club of some sort. This club is not only a valuable weapon and hunting tool but also a symbol of status. A very poor Ogre would have a simple hardwood bough for a club. A Tyrant, on the other hand, would wield a brutal looking bludgeon, banded, studded and spiked with iron. Ogres also often pair it with the so-called "ironfist", a creation that can be used both as a shield and as a brutal weapon.

Types of Ogre
Tyrants - The rulers of the individual kingdoms making up the Ogre Kingdoms are called Tyrants and rule by brute force.
Bulls - The majority of adult males in the Ogre Kingdoms are known as Bulls, and form the bulk of any Ogre horde.
Bruisers - Bruisers are muscle-bound bullies, their strength and size surpassed only by the Tyrant himself. Correspondingly, they act as the enforcers of the Tyrant's authority within the                      kingdom, as well as maintaining order and discipline among the Ogres, especially when the Tyrant's attentions are elsewhere.
Butchers - Butchers are Shamans as well as cooks, it is their job to feed their brothers and may sometimes even use them in their ingredients. They use a shamanic type of magic called                     Gut Magic - a gift of the Great Maw - although it can have terrible side effects, when used correctly it can greatly turn a battle in favour of the ogres.
Ironguts - Some Ogres have a tendency to eat indigestible things such as swords, shields or even gravel. These Ogres are the Ironguts, and wear cobbled together pieces of armour from                     various expeditions in their lives, and also use large double-handed weapons of various types.
Leadbelchers - A relatively new type of warrior in Ogre society which, from doing mercenary work for Chaos Dwarfs or finding them from the remains of an unlucky enemy artillery team                                have been able to earn themselves a cannon that they use in the form of a two-handed gun and have learned to fire these guns to create havoc as well as lots of black                                 smoke and deafening noise.
Maneaters - Elite Ogres who have travelled outside the Ogre Kingdoms as mercenaries in the Old World or elsewhere.
Hunters - Hunters are generally outcasts from the tribe, tending to live on the upper slopes of the Mountains of Mourn where they hunt wild animals for food. Most Hunters are armed                        with a harpoon crossbow.
