	Ogres are a race of Chaos-tainted humans, who look normal until they open their mouths to reveal rows of daggerlike teeth, used for cannibalistic murder. Function somewhat like Genestealer cults, picking off individual victims and reproducing in the community in secret to amass enough numbers to revolt outright.

They worship a Chaotic deity known as "Cacodemon".

	In [[Kings of War]], Ogres are a warrior race who make their living as mercenaries, kinda like in Warhammer. There are a number of differences between the two, however; Mantic ogres, rather than being shirtless sumo wrestlers like they're portrayed as in most media, are athletic and muscular (if a little top-heavy) and use proper weapons and armour, fitting for a race whose entire livelihood is their business as professional soldiers. They also have no central leadership, so clans will fight as allies for just about any army between them. Not much is known about their background.

	Typically, ogres are the smallest, ugliest, dumbest and crudest of the variant giants; this justifies their frequent alliances with [[goblins]] and [[orcs]] due to a similar distaste for making an honest living and love of fighting. Generally, when your party is capable of killing orcs easily, ogres are the next step up. Generally the only real common thread among ogre legends is that they are large and that they eat the flesh of men. Tusks or fangs are also common, but not required.

	Exactly just how crude they are varies from setting to setting. [[Pathfinder]] infamously made its ogres into inbred, cannibalistic, depraved rapist monsters straight out of some hicksploitation horror film. Picture a cross between The Hills Have Eyes and Deliverance played out by giants and you got the basic idea. Ogres from Warcraft, meanwhile, are still generally crude and stupid but have had their lore revised many times over the years to add more detail and nuance, including the reveal that they once had a grand empire and now-lost practice of fusing magic with flesh to create magic-immune soldiers called Breakers.
