77: Ogre Kingdoms History Pt1 | Warhammer Old World Lore

In this week’s Warhammer Old World lore dive, we uncover the apocalyptic origins of the Ogre Kingdoms, beginning with their creation by the Old Ones and their early nomadic life on the fertile Eastern Steppes near Grand Cathay. Rising tensions, cannibal raids, and the wrath of the Celestial Dragon Emperor culminate in a cataclysmic warpstone comet strike that annihilates most of Ogre-kind and births the Great Maw—an insatiable, godlike entity that transforms their homeland into a wasteland and their culture into one defined by eternal hunger. From the fanatical prophet Groth Onefinger, who founds the grisly Butchers’ Cult at the Maw’s edge, to the westward migration that leads to the genocidal War in the Sky against the Skytitan giants, the episode traces centuries of brutal expansion, monster wars, and apocalyptic battles against Dragon Ogres and Daemons alike. We also explore the rise of the Gnoblars—enslaved yet perversely protected under Ogre rule—and the eventual unification of the tribes under the first Overtyrant, Thug the Fist, whose Great Feast cements the savage traditions that define the Ogre Kingdoms to this day.
