The ears stick straight out and are funnel shaped.In spite of their savage reputation and minor penalty to Intelligence ogres are in fact more culturally and to a smaller extent technologically advanced than humanity. But they are not whimps! In fact if you drop an ogre in to a forest with a compass and a few hunting weapons (including a battle-axe) they can live rather comfortably for an indefinite period of time. Ogre civilization is rather similar to Renascence culture, but there’s no political (or literal) backstabbing or totalitarian government to mar it at all. And in the truest sense of the word they are definitely unchivalric. This is because they believe that all women are to be treated decently not just those of equal or higher status (the historical code of Chivalry says that those of lower status may be taken by force). On top of all of this ogres are brilliant painters and sculptors and they invented the internal combustion engine specifically for motorcycles.Racial Traits: Because of their general skill as artists they gain a +4 to any visual arts skill. Ogres also gain a +4 to all engineering skills.Other Races: There are only four races ogres get along with as a whole, elves whom they love like brothers, dwarves are their favorite drinking buddies, gnomes are fellow inventors and mild kooks (as well as walking disaster areas) and halfling whom they frequenlty patronize. As for orcs and other typically evil races they are considered the greatest of enemies.Favored Gestalt Classes: Any combination of two of these four classes, Barbarian, Wizard, Ranger and Paladin of Freedom. If not Chaotic Good replace Paladin of Freedom with Fighter.P.S. I'm not going to even try to calculate the level adjustment for this race.</blockquote>
