I always thought the creature on the cover of the "Legends of the Hero Kings" is "The Ogre".. but i cant find any reference to it.
Any one knows?

I would agree, it fits the description of the Ogre better than any of the others. What makes you unsure?

Can we make a page for the Ogre? Apparently, we need one, right?

It's not a perfect match to the black & white portrait of the Ogre in the text, but it's pretty close. Horns/horns. Flat nose/flat nose. Pointy ears/pointy ears. Grimace/grimace. The hairline is different, and he's wearing different armor, but I think we can put the differences down to different artists. The cover art seems to match up pretty neatly with the "encounter map" on p68.

So, yeah, that's probably the Ogre.

Or his twin.
