    I was a half-ogre warrior mage the first time around. I picked summoning and temporal, with a few points to get teleportation. The rest went into the things that were needed to achieve that level of magic and fighting ability. It is really to you. There is a natural inclination toward magic for these characters (according to the manual), but not really any bonuses. Good luck!

    Oh Yea! and welcome to the forum! :grin:

    because of there size they are not good pick pockets or prowlers, so i would avoid taking the thief route.

    What Longtooth said.:smile: Take advantage of your Half Ogre's basic characteristics. While you may train him up for magery or technology, this isn't their strong suit. Half Ogres make the finest Melee/Dodge fighters due to their inherit strength and health bonuses. You may still train up technology; but to max it, you will need to use intelligence potions or brain builder since their int cap falls a bit short.

    put a LOT of points into DEX. the more the better at that. he's strong and the more attacks you can do the better. take advantage of his strength!(with a good weapon) =]
