Info: Half-Ogres almost always have an Ogre father and a Human mother. All the Half-Ogres you may encounter in Arcanum are male. Nobody is sure why, but there are 2 theories. Females are either killed and eaten or kept within the tribe for breeding purposes. Many of the smaller races use half-ogres as body guards or child minders because of their strong parental instinct. They are ecxeedingly gentle to the minute races and to the children of the median races and ,while guarding them, will fight any attacker to the death. All Ogres and Half-Ogres strongly dislike Dwarves because Ogres like to make their homes near mountains aswell and have always fought them for territory. In appearence, they resemble their ogre parents, their fingers are too large to use pistols but they can use rifles.
