Ogre Boss

Creature 7 — giant, humanoid

AnvilLANDgianthumanoid

In ogre society, might makes more than right—it makes the rules. The strongest or most violent ogre in a family (in most cases, this is the same ogre) is invariably that family's boss. Quick to hook fallen foes on their weapons, even other ogres fear the repercussions of displeasing an ogre boss. When an ogre boss barks out commands, the other members of the family move quickly to obey. For many societies, ogres embody brutish, amoral violence and greedy cruelty.

Abilities

Reactive Strike —

Bellowing Command (auditory, emotion, fear, linguistic, mental) — The ogre boss issues a command to hasten their fellows. Each ogre ally who hears and understands this command becomes Quickened until the end of that ally's next turn but can use the extra action only to Step or Stride.

Sweeping Hook —

WORKS WELL WITH

SniperLANDA ranged attacker can pick targets apart while this creature's reach weapon and Reactive Strike punish anyone who tries to close in on them.

WeaverLANDA spellcaster stays protected behind the reach threat zone, and the Quickened tempo from the command ability lets allies capitalize on any opening the caster creates.

CrasherLANDA second aggressive striker benefits from the tempo boost of the command ability, turning an extra action into extra pressure on an already-committed target.

PUNISHES

✖ disengaging✖ ranged reliance from close range✖ clumping

Another Anvil sharing the same reach zone crowds the front line without adding new threat coverage.
