George

George was an ogre healer Luthien and Lorandin Palador met while following the dark elves that had taken Grundi. He was never amazing as a healer, but unlike other ogres he was rarely hauted by the great hunger.

He was an old friend of Eleanor and Thorwald Notker.

Appearance
Standing more than two men high, George was quite large. For an ogre he was slightly below average sized, his hands nimbler and gentler than any other ogres. Unlike his kinsmen he never wore a gutplate, but had it substituted for a large healing kit bound around him like a belt. George was clean shaved, with no beard and no hair on his head. He sometimes wore a small pair of glasses, not because of bad eyesight, but because it made him look more doctorly.

Personality
George was a gentle soul when trying to help, but like all other ogres, he could swing his arms in terrifying arcs, scaring of those who would hurt his friends or smash them to pulp. He liked food like other ogres, but disliked the fat shape of the ogre race. He always longed for the company of elves and tall humans, for their shape was closer to what he meant was perfection. Alas, few humans and almost no elves come near him and his career as a healer never went very well. Only Eleanor and Thorwald showed him kindness and for that he became their eternal friend and guardian. When Thorwald died, George wished he could have taken the manling's place, for he would rather have died then lose one of his few friends.
