OGRE CHAIN BRUTE
An ogre chain brute wields a great spiked
chain. It swings this chain with both
hands in a wide circle around itself to
knock foes off their feet. Alternatively, it
can swing the chain in a crushing over-
head smash that's nearly impossible to
block or deflect.

OGRE HOWDAH
The most unusual of the specialized
ogres, the howdah carries a palisaded
wooden fort on its back. The fort is big
enough to serve as a fighting platform for
up to four small humanoids. Ogre how-
dahs are most often seen bearing goblins
equipped with bows and spears into bat-
tle, but they could just as easily transport
kobolds, deep gnomes, or other human-
oids of similar size.
