==History== In the distant past, the Ogres multiplied from the plentiful herds in their grassy home to the east of [[Cathay]]. They were taught ironworking and how to build fires by the Cathayan people, and were hired as mercenaries. However, the Ogres started to become a threat as they feasted on peasants' children, so the Dragon Emperor summoned a meteor to [[Rocks fall, everyone dies|burn down]] the Ogres' land and beasts. What was left of the Ogres' former home was reduced to the [[Warpstone]] Desert, [[Skaven|yes-yes]]... The surviving Ogres fled west, away from their blasted realm, where they killed and ate the weaker members of their tribes. Driven to greater hunger and cruelty by the Great Maw, the Ogres became more warlike, slaughtering their way into the [[Mountains of Mourn]]. One of the Ogre legends mentioned about a prophet known as Groth Onefinger, who founded a cult that worshipped the Great Maw. His descendants were the Lazargh tribe, who used stones to replace the teeth that they lost. Henceforth, Ogres hurl their victims' remains into pits and cauldrons in honour of this monstrous god, and the greatest prophet of the Great Maw in recent times is [[Skrag the Slaughterer]]. Some well-traveled Ogres claim that, on the opposite side of the world, there lies a hole in the ocean that serves as Great Maw's twin, sucking up any unfortunate ship that sails too close to it (and before you start asking, it isn't [[The Vortex]]; its location doesn't line up). This is mostly likely referring to the Maelstrom located within the Galleon’s Graveyard from [[Dreadfleet]].
