Tyrant / Bruiser
|
| |
Tyrants are the dominant males of each Ogre tribe. The Tyrant is generally the biggest, strongest, fiercest, and most commanding
Ogre in a given area. The largest Tyrants are capable of wrestling a Giant to the ground or smashing their way through a fortified
gate with their bare fists.

The post of Tyrant is not hereditary. To become the Tyrant of a given tribe, an Ogre simply has to beat the existing Tyrant
in single combat. These conflicts are decided by the traditional Ogre leadership challenge known as guts-out pitfighting.
Veteran survivors of such pitfights are scarred, cunning warriors of unparalled brutality.

This it the Battle Standard Bearers I converted. The banner is removable if I want to field him with just an ironfist instead.

Slaughtermaster / Butcher
|
| |
Butchers are immense, corpulent hulks covered in offal and dried blood. They have appalling personal hygiene and like nothing
more than wallowing in meat, guts, and gore regardless of the source. Hideous and mean, Butchers are the Ogre equivalent of
a tribal shaman, although their role is more that of a holy man than magic-user. Butchers have a direct link to the Great
Maw and are able to channel a small portion of the Ogre deity's insatiable thirst for gluttony and violence in a practice
known as "Gut Magic."

Butchers often resemble walking larders. Butchers typically sport a bewildering array of meat hooks, cleavers, tenderizers,
and other culinary instruments that find equal use on living and dead alike. Even the most junior Butcher can brew up all
manner of concoctions in his meat pot.

Hunter
|
| |
Hunters are among the most massive and independent of their kind and think nothing of climbing to the peak of a mountain while
tracking a wounded great mammoth. An Ogre becomes a Hunter either by temporarily severing his ties to his tribe to sate his
wanderlust or by being exiled into the harsh white wilderness of the mountain for some slight to his fellow Ogres. Either
way, these ties are not completely severed. A Hunter who excels at his solitary lifestyle will drag an impressive kill or
two back to the caves on important feast days.
It is common for a Hunter to keep a Sabretusk or two around to help sniff out his cave-beast prey. Sabretusks are agile, giant
felines who often have tusks jutting from their lower jaws. There's always good eating when a Hunter's around. This fact alone
has helped bring many Hunters back into the fold.

Gnoblar Upgrades
|
| |
Characters (except hunters) can take gnoblar upgrades. Butchers get tooth gnoblars, bruisers get sword gnoblars, both can
also take luck gnoblars. So I modelled some. These are the various tooth gnoblars I made.

These are the various sword and luck gnoblars I made. They all are magnetic, and attach to the bases of various figures.

Spell Markers
|
| |
Ogre butchers have different spells than other wizards. Several of these stay on the unit after cast, so I made some markers
for this. These are for the BullGorger (rhinox heart), ToothCracker (rocks), TrollGuts (troll guts) spells.

|
| Scrag
the Slaughterer |
|
|
Skrag is the legendary prophet of the Great Maw. Dragging his massive
meat-pot behind him, Skrag hacks and rips at his enemies in a glorious blood-fueled dedication to the Great Maw. In his wake,
he leaves a trail of dismembered limbs and body parts. It is the duty of his Gore-Gnoblars to retrieve these bits and deposit
them into his cauldron. Skrag is regarded with awe and fear by even the most terrible of Tyrants. Each Ogre sees Skrag as
the living embodiment of their god. Skrag's Gorgers remain his ever present guardians and shadow him wherever he goes. |

Greasus Goldtooth
|
|
Greasus Goldtooth assumed the Tyranthood of his tribe by killing and eating his own father. Since that time, Greasus has conquered
many other Ogres tribes who at first refused to pay him tribute. The kingdom of the Overtyrant (as Greasus likes to be titled)
has grown into a powerful and wealthy realm.
Those who challenge the Overtyrant usually end up as his next meal. When the time comes for battle, Greasus hefts his jewel-encrusted
scepter and orders his Gnoblar servants to carry him into the thick of combat. The Overtyrant's wealth is so great that he
is able to bribe many enemy units and inspire greed and confusion amongst the foe.
