EverQuest

Ogres were created by the Warlord, Rallos Zek, as the greatest race of soldiers ever created. The Ogres of ancient times were also highly intelligent and wielded powerful magics along with their brute strength, but their vanity became their downfall as they attempted an assault, along with Zek's other creations (
giants and
goblins) upon the
gods themselves. In defeat, Zek's children were cursed by the other gods. The giants are almost completely extinct; the goblins' history was eradicated; and Ogres lost all their intelligence. The Ogres of today are forced to rely primarily on their size and unmatched strength to crush their foes. Some Ogres have retained enough wisdom to become
Shaman and some struggle to learn the ways of
necromancy by becoming
Shadow Knights. But, most commonly, Ogres leave Oggok on a warpath of destruction as the most fearsome
Warriors in all of
Norrath. Ogres are friendly with neighboring
Trolls and are tolerated by the
Dark Elves, while some Ogres have gone out of their way to prove themselves to the
Humans and are allowed in
Freeport. All Ogres have the ability to Slam (stun) opponents,
infravision to see in the swamp's darkness, and wear only large
armor. They are also weak to fire.
