#ogre!hal

Hal and everyone else thought he would become a gargoyle like his Mother, sister and Aunts, he winds up resembling his old man much more than he’d like.

One of the worst things about becoming an ogre is that ogres are unintelligent creatures with limited brain capacity. So now he’s a few brain-cells shorter, he un-learns what his Mother taught him about being his own person and has a panic attack, because he thinks he’s become his father. And he lacks the ability to articulate his thoughts and feelings.

Fortunately Hal is consoled and helped by his Uncle Arthur and His Aunty Kath! who teach him how to be an ogre and that being an ogre isn’t just about being aggressive, violent and stupid. They teach him this by taking him to their favourite pond and introducing him to their duck friends

(Note: Not only are the ducks used to ogres, but ogre’s form symbiotic relationships with them, ogre’s will protect their nests and the ducks will eat the algae and grime of their bodies)

As Hal gets older he makes peace with his ogre form, it helps that he still looks a lot like his Mother as unlike most ogres who have green skin, Hal has gargoyle-esque grey skin and yellow eyes like his mother.

He grows into quite a handsome ogre! with a majestic, thick mane and strong, pearly-white tusks

(Note: Male ogres are like lions, as in a darker mane is indicative of health and virility and is considered manly)
