Ogre - Dungeons on Automatic Bestiary

Giant · 2 hexes · SM +1 Ogre [Monsters on Automatic, SRD coverage: humanoid folk and their sub-races; answers Ogre (SRD 5.1); Ogre (SRD 3.5)]

Three metres of appetite with a club. Ogres are slow, stupid, foul-tempered and enormously strong, and the arithmetic of a fight with one is simple: it will hit somebody eventually, and when it does that person stops being a combatant. They take toll on roads, eat what they take, and are not open to a second offer.

Notes

GCS ancestry draft: gcs/ogre.gct
Independent build total: 48 points of racial traits plus 18 points of racial skills.
Answers the SRD heading(s): Ogre (SRD 5.1); Ogre (SRD 3.5). Only the creature identity is taken from the SRD; the GURPS statistics, ratings and prose are this project's own work and reproduce no SRD text.
Typical Stats, damage and ratings are derived from the racial template, not authored beside it, so the sheet and the stat block cannot disagree.
Body mass used to scale this build: 300 kg. ST, Size Modifier and DR are checked against it; see the gurps-animal-sanity-check skill for the bands.
Movement: ground Move 5 (primary). The published Move is the primary medium's cruising Move; sprint figures are stated here and not folded into it.
Treasure and grappling are not authored for this batch and ship as explicit nulls; `lair` carries a short habitat note, because where a wandering animal dens is an encounter fact rather than a loot one.
About 2.9 m standing, which is the SM +1 row; Strength carries the published -10% size discount.
ST 20 from Basic Lift: it picks a man up one-handed and throws him, which is the ogre encounter in one sentence.
DX 9 is deliberate and is half the creature. It hits like a falling wall and it is genuinely easy to not be there, and a party that stands still is choosing to be hit.
DR 2 is hide. Ogres wear hides rather than armour, so this record's published DR is what it actually has.

Source record: Ogre [Monsters on Automatic, SRD coverage: humanoid folk and their sub-races]
Source system: doa_fixture / doa_authored
Released under: cc_by_4_0
Conversion: 0.1.0-srd-independent-build

Description: Written by Dungeons on Automatic, released under cc_by_4_0

Independently authored GURPS build. The SRD supplies the creature identity this record answers to and nothing else: no SRD statistics, wording or presentation is reproduced, and no third-party GURPS conversion was used as an input.
Answers the SRD heading(s): Ogre (SRD 5.1); Ogre (SRD 3.5).
Racial template: 48 points across 13 traits, plus 4 racial skill(s) worth 18 points.
Every trait is drawn from the project's controlled GURPS vocabulary in scripts/srd/trait-library.mjs, which carries the page reference and published cost for each entry.
sourceSystem is recorded as doa_fixture because that is the package contract's value for project-authored material; the SRD headings this record answers are in provenance.coversSourceIdentities.
Ratings are recomputed through the consumer CER path on every build, so a mechanics change cannot leave a stale rating behind.
