Half Ogres are dim witted and naive; they take twice the normal time of In Game roleplay to learn skills.

More Details:

Half Ogres have a parent who was an Ogre and a parent who was a human.

These half breeds are exceptionally strong, very tough, and very proficient fighters with two handed weapons.
They are, however, in a word, dumb and lack the intelligence of their human parentage.

They find magic almost impossible to learn. Lacking in wit, nimbleness, and grace they find it difficult to learn Dexterity skills.

Most human societies fear these half breed and shun them; Ogres consider them weak runts who are too nice.
Often abused, very few Half Ogres find a place to live with people. They survive mostly by their strength and toughness, and all wise adventurers are very careful around an armed and armored Half Ogre ready for a fight.

Most Half Ogres are an expression of extremes, doing nothing in moderation.
Some are exceptionally kind and nonviolent while others are particularly cruel, but all are savage and fierce in combat or when angered.

More Details

Half Trolls are the toughest of the half breeds and quite strong; making them excellent warriors. Their low dexterity makes them somewhat unsuited to being rogues. They are more intelligent than Half Ogres and can learn some low magic, if not with difficulty, but they lack the intelligence and magical nature needed to wield high magic.

Along with their Troll parent’s strength, they share their vulnerability to fire. Like all half breeds, Half Trolls find it difficult to find a place in either Troll or Human societies, and like the Half Ogre, their savage natures tend to come through when their emotions run high.
