Current Description:

07/30/2002

Big ogre.  Real big.  With a pair of yellowed tusks any boar would
be proud to sport.  He grins at you, revealing a series of massive
teeth, chipped and stained from a life of eating things few people
would consider edible.  And possibly from eating a few people that
most things would not consider edible, either.  His dark pea-green
skin has the texture - and odor - of a bubbling swamp, and a black
top-knot sprouts from his head like an unkempt horse's tail.  "Now
me can sing for you!" he bellows.  "Me sing good!"
