From publisher blurb:
Vloglok smash!
Here be best half-ogre ever. Stinkiest, mightiest, drunkenest.
You need crush? Goblinses crush into mush?
We got crushes. We got smashes.
Bah, words so boring. Vloglok go stink now.
I do believe that says it all, but in case you need a little bit more detail … this book is all about half-ogres, the half-forgotten player character race half-devised by Gary Gygax (and then abandoned) in 1979. Herein you will find my own detailed campaign notes, bringing the half-ogre up to speed for reintroduction into your own old school campaign.
In addition to notes buffing up the race’s complexity gaps (concerning shamans, witch doctors, spell selections, racial interactions, level titles, name generators, haphazard composite armor, superior weapon choices, etc.), you’ll find lore and legendry that goes all the way back to the ogres of yore which inspired Gygax’s own ogres in the early 1970s: there are glimmers here of Andrew Lang, Charles Perrault, Bluebeard, Puss in Boots, Pinocchio, Tom Thumb, the Pentamerone, and other old fairytales which have all been incorporated into the ogrish lexicon.
It is, quite simply, the most detailed treatment of half-ogres ever!
Lavishly illustrated throughout, with rules that can easily coincide with Basic, Expert, and Advanced FPRG play.
