Summary

0011274: Main menu: Ogre's magic abilities are not as good as the description in the menu seems to imply.

Description

The description currently looks like this:

"Large and strong, Ogres are mostly seen as brutes. They are extremely
robust, and have an excellent grasp of magic."

I think "excellent grasp of magic" is not really accurate. Ogres are competent spellcasters, but they are certainly not outstanding or even above average.

The old description that said that they were "comfortable with the basics of spellcasting" seems more accurate.

I think something along those lines would be better. Make them "comfortable with spellcasting" instead of just basic spellcasting or say they have "an moderate grasp of magic" instead of an excellent one.
