ogre

A general group of large and aggressive humanoid monster. They are often depicted with a large head, abundant hair and beard, a voracious appetite, and a strong body.

As they are commonly mistaken for orc due to naming similarity and similar characteristics, later depiction of ogres usually have a colored skin (typically brown or red, similar to oni, albeit some artist is still using green skin, however), a horn(s), as well as usually being fat instead of muscular.

Note that this tag is used specifically for the "western" ogres (human-like ogres and derivatives). For Japanese ogres, uses oni instead.

For the Tekken character, see Ogre (Tekken).
