# [[The Merged]]
![[The Merged.svg]]
An ogre creature *on loan* to [[Volluk Azrinae]] and used as one of his minions in the [[The Gauntlight|Gauntlight]] battle (Sessions 049–050). Dumb and smelly but powerful — described in combat as having to *prove its usefulness* to Volluk.
## Profile
- **Ogre** with unusually large jaws that can **detach** to eat targets whole
- **Temp HP from consumption**: Gains temporary HP from successful attacks/devourings
- **Resistant** to certain damage types
- **Loaned, not owned**: Volluk's master plan didn't *include* this creature — it's borrowed
## In the Volluk Battle (Sessions 049–050)
- Worked alongside Volluk's ice sculptures and shadows
- Demonstrated its temp-HP-on-damage trick mid-fight, becoming notably harder to grind down
- Eventually forced to retreat by the party's tactical coordination — a meaningful blow to Volluk's defensive bench during the extended confrontation
