Krooks

Krooks, or ogres, are a sentient bipedal species.

Appearance
Krooks earned their nickname from their human neighbors for their ferocity and appearance. They are very tall and are heavily muscled with thick coarse skin and incredibly thick body hair, and can be described as gorilla-like. A pair of horns sit atop each Krook's head, which vary from ram like horns to bull like and are used in dominance displays.

Relationship with other Species
Peaceful until angered, Krooks show tremendous skill in battle. They wield primitive weapons but use their great speed and strength to compensate. They prefer to maintain peace and this has led to them forming a close symbiotic relationship with the humans on their planet. They inhabit the dangerous forests and work as loggers and miners of resources while humans inhabit the more peaceful plains and work on technological advancement as well as agriculture. This leads to mutually beneficial resource trading and humans and Krooks walk side by side, though racial tensions occur occasionally in some cases.
