Gorger Mawpack Background Tables

Source: Hunter and Hunted (out of print)

Driven by an insatiable hunger. the cursed ogors of the Gorger Mawpacks hurl themselves upon anything that moves, ever in search of their next meal.

The Gorger Mawpacks comprise ogors that suffer from the Empty Belly curse, a malady that robs them of the ability to gain satisfaction from eating the worst fate imaginable for ogorkind. They lurk in lightless holes, gnawing on bones and partaking in gruesome rituals to appease the Gulping God. Though they are incapable of ittering much more than simple growls and grunts, individual Gorgers are often given nicknames by their unafflicted kin or the folk they terrorise.
