Memory:Ogre lord

Slightly larger than the average ogre, and perhaps not quite as stupid, these lords are better equipped and more vicious than the common ogre. They evidently rise to their position by entering competitions of various types among the tribe and managing to survive. They can be noted by the ceremonial scarring involved in one of the events. Every ogre tribe has a formal chief. Their elections usually are great feasts, consisting of a lot of fist-fights, drinking and eating, until finally the one who has proved best in all three disciplines is declared lord of the heap. This rank means better food and drink and above all being entitled to shout at all others at the top of their voice and beating them up. Large ogre populations sometimes even let their chiefs fight the ogre triathlon against each other and make the winner King, which means even more drinking and shouting.
