Notable Individuals

A bulky, slug-like creature with addictive secretions with effects that vary by individual.

Physiology

Oggori (often shortened to “oggs”) are massive serpentine monsters.Their hide is moist and slick, and some have hardened nodules jut up in patterns along their blubbery bodies. Some individuals have bioluminescent markings.

Their fluids contain a psychoactive toxin that causes sedation, feelings of euphoria, hallucinations, and other effects. However, this only seems to affect non-ogg species. Each individual’s potency and effects are a bit different, as is the color, scent and taste. This substance is often highly addictive. It also tends to glow, further mesmerizing the enthralled.

While oggori appear to have breasts and nipples, these are actually poison glands. They habitually knead these glands and rub the secretions over their hide to give it an oily and toxic coat. More productive individuals may appear to have breasts, regardless of sex. Particularly full venom glands may faintly glow through the creature’s skin.

The oggorus has a large, retractable stinger at the end of its tail to deliver its toxins as a venom. In this form, it's much more potent and the onset is immediate.

Oggori have a superficially mammalian anatomy despite their amphibious appearance.

Males have a stout sheath and a streamlined sac that resembles a scrotum; this is actually another pair of poison glands which secrete through the sheath and urethra. The testes are instead internal. Females are nearly indistinguishable - they have a sheath-like vulva along with a similar pair of glands, the product from which they secrete alongside lubricating fluids, and secrete in large volumes upon orgasm.

​An ogg’s shaft is slimy and prehensile, and the tip is crowned with flexible nodules that swell prior to climax. The female's labia are lined with these nodules as well, which swell and interlock post-coitus, retaining fluids. Their genitalia is lubricated in the same toxic secretions that coat the rest of their body, and some is secreted along with semen.

Oggori lay around thirty round, transparent eggs roughly the size of a baseball. Most of these will be eaten by the parents, but one or two may survive.

Stereotypes

Ogg stereotypes tend to portray them as lazy, hedonistic, demanding, or slovenly. Their booming voices, round guts, and constantly-drooling body may be to blame for most of these presumptions.

In spite of their intimidating or revolting appearance, these creatures are rarely lonely. It’s not uncommon for an individual to find themselves with a small, enraptured harem of non-oggs addicted to their particular brand of venom. This attention is welcomed by many, but less hedonistic oggs may face difficulty in finding meaningful connections or even solitude.

An oggorus that enters a bar is often sized up by a room curious to know their unique effects. While one might assume it would be a taboo to simply lick a stranger, it’s not uncommon for this to happen. Some non-oggs assume that all oggs welcome the attention; many simply don’t care. This can be a nightmare for any with a desire for personal space and basic courtesy, and particularly those who see their toxin's effects as a personal, private, sexual, or spiritual part of themselves.

For others, this assumption yields an unending source of bliss, as they tend to feel lavished with attention wherever they go - given the effects of their secretions have sufficient appeal. These vary wildly in nature and potency, and some oggs are regarded as celebrities for their effects alone.
