Ogre

Ogres are large humanoid creatures living in the world of Daventry.

Background
Ogres, are large, human-eating creatures of humanlike appearance. Often mistaken for giants, ogres range in size from 9 to 12 feet tall, with strength to match. They have prominent tusks growing out of their jaws and large talons on their feet--both quite suitable for tearing their prey open. some ogres are reported to also have small horns growing out of their hard, thick skulls; their skins are various dirty, dark yellowy shades and covered with warts. Their tempers range from bad to worse. Ogres live in dark places, mostly underground, but often deep in some dark hollow or forest. They tend to live in pairs, male with female, and both are equally fearsome.

Graham stumbled accross one in his exploration of Daventry; he was invisible at the time, so the ogre didn't see him. It probably smelled Graham, as that sense is well developed in their kind. Rosella had to enter the home of an ogre couple in Tamir in order to steal the hen that laid golden eggs. She waited in a closet until the male finished counting his treasure and fell asleep, then dashed out and took the bird. The ogre woke before she could get out of the house, and she was barely able to outrun it to safety (ogres have long legs; they're not fast but can cover a lot of ground quickly). Rosella, like her father before her, was lucky to get away.

Ogres once terrorized Daventry. Daventry ogres don't talk, they growl. They are ferocious looking beasts. Ogres are practically industructible. They try to kill individuals in their strong arms, to crush their bones. Ogres are afraid of goats.

Some Ogres are hired as guards, for example Azakas.

Behind the scenes
In the original KQ1, the magic shield will protect Graham from the ogre.

According to the King's Appeal multiple ogres had invaded Daventry.
