Half-Ogres

Rarity: Rare (1 per 300)

Ogres & Humans

The Ogres that live on Haven alongside humanity are not very different from humans. In fact, the ogres were human once, before their disastrous journey to Haven.
Whilst they are now changed, they retain enough of their human nature that humans and ogres can technically cross-breed, though this is not at all desirable.

Unhealthy Relationships:
Ogres and Humans can get along, but should not be involved romantically. Ogres are mentally deficient when compared to the average human, being more comparable to a human child. As such, there can't really be a consensual relationship between an ogre and a human.
Additionally, the sheer physical strength and size difference between the massive and strong ogre and comparatively frail human means that if the ogre ever loses their temper the human is in grave danger. Additionally a human woman is unlikely to survive giving birth to a first-generation half-ogre child.

As a result, the story of how a first-generation half-ogre child came to be is almost never a happy one.

Half-ogres bloodlines:
Whilst First-generation ogres have very rough childhoods, the ogre blood in their veins can endure throughout several generations. As such, second or third generation half-ogres may inherit their strength without losing out on a happy childhood.

Traits

Half-ogres are bigger, stronger and tougher than normal humans, and they dont necessarily lose any of their intelligence.
They also gain some level of magic resistance from their ogre parent.
Half-Ogre

Appearance:

Half-Ogres inherit some physical traits from their ogre parent.
They might have a much larger build, ugly faces, short necks, leathery-tough skin or overly large hands.

Half-ogres age at the same rates as Humans.
