Background/History:

Shrek is an ogre trying to do what he likes best -- live alone in his swamp where no one can bother him. Unfortunately, he ends up saddled with Donkey, the talking donkey (who won't shut up...), and after Lord Farquadd arrests a large number of fairy-tale creatures, more elves, dwarves, flying pixies, and witches than he can shake a stick at. So he sets off to see Lord Farquadd and set things straight...

 

Personality/Motivation:

Shrek is a reclusive ogre who lies his privacy. He would like the rest of the world to stay out of his swamp, and would be quite happy to never talk to another person (aside from another ogre I presume) as long as he lives. Of course, under that gruff exterior is a somewhat lonely ogre, who has turned his back on the world because the world has turned its back on him. As Shrek says; "The judge me before they know me." which play right into his other line: "There's a lot more to ogres than people think." And in Shrek's case it means he's an accomplished cook, knows quite a bit about other fairy-tale creatures (such as dragons and giants), and is quite knowledgeable about ogre astronomy.

 

Quote: "Ogres are... like onions."

 

Powers/Tactics:

As an ogre, Shrek is tall, strong, and tough. He can roll aside a huge boulder, lift a fully-armored man over his head, and doesn't even notice getting shot in the backside with an arrow. When it comes to a fight, Shrek is devastating in hand-to-hand combat, combining his great strength with an assortment of ogre "wrestling" moves. Of course, he's not fool either, and knows when to give up (being faced by roughly 50 crossbowmen will do the trick) or to run (such as when being chased by a fire-breathing dragon).

 

Appearance:

Shrek stands roughly 7' in height with green skin and thick features. He wears plaid trousers, a white shirt and a dark brown vest of some sort of scaled hide.

 

Designer's Notes:

This character sheet of Shrek is a mix serious and silly. For the most part he's a workable Fantasy Hero character, and could even be turned into a low-powered superhero with a few minor changes. Of course, in a fantasy setting one might one to turn Shrek's "ogre wrestling" (which is just glorified professional wrestling moves) into something more realistic, like Dirty Infighting. Or, leave it as it, and really shake up a party of PCs!

 

Oh, "shrek" translates roughly to "terror" or "fright."

Good job susano, good for a not-so-serious fantasy romp.

 

 

What does he look like after the movie and what does his princess look like too?

 

Doesn't change a bit. New Psych Lims maybe.

Post Movie Shrek

 

ERmmmmm

 

 

 

So he has a full, story worthy adventure and does not change?

 

How about a base,(swamp) Contacts: group :fairy folk, lose the Hunted Faquaad and Contact: Dragon SFX (through Donkey)

 

and instead of "wants to be left alone"have "In love With Princess Fiona"

 

 

speaking of that how Would you writeup Princess Fiona?

 

just rename the character? :)

He does and he doesn't. Most of the changes are in his personality, not his powers and skills.

The swamp isn't really a base -- all he does is live there. I am not sure about the idea of a Contact for the fairy folk, but he certainly has the dragon as a Contact. Faquaad is gone, and yes, he'd swap Psych Lims.

basically. She seems quicker, and has different martial arts, but... yeah.

 

I have no idea if Shrek 2 will add anything new. Probably.

Looks good but you left of AoE noxious fumes, although that may just have been bragging.

 

 

Donkey: Oooh, you should warn someone before you do that, my mouth was open and everything.

 

Shrek: Thats brimstone

 

Donkey: I know what I smell, and that ain't no brimstone, it didn't come off any stone neither.

 

Shrek: If it had been me, You'd be dead.

 

For further support, it did stun or kill fish in a pond during the opening credits.
