Backstory:
On a random world largely untouched by the Elder Things a group of humans let by some priests had attempted to create a settlement up in the northern part of the continent, away from the larger cities and factions to the South. A group of Ogres misplaced their baby while trying to eat sheep the priests kept because Ogres are dumb. Instead of just letting the shepherds kill him the priests decided to raise him instead. His first word and the only word he would say for the first year or two was "Mug", a word he learned front the priests always shouting at him at meal time when he would take their ale as a (gigantic) toddler, "That's my mug! Give me back my mug!" And the name he had been given (he had been named after some saint whose name he could never remember or pronounce) was quickly forgotten and everyone just called him Mug.

He was actually not as stupid as the average Ogre, though the priests quietly credited their constant teaching (and canings) with good progress. He was useful for all kinds of hard labor from the time he was a child, building walls and houses, pulling a plow when the ox got sick, and fending off the occasional thief or wild animal that would attack the villagers, the shrine, or their flock.

When Elementals poured forth from another dimension to destroy and enslave the human settlement the light of Aldur shone down and chose big, stupid, kind-hearted Mug the Ogre to protect the people who had raised him. When a great void elemental blasted in the door of the shrine where everyone was huddled inside Mug picked it up, used it as a shield and beat back the interdimensional raiders using the crossbar as a club.

While he was successful in killing the Elemental and saving the people, the fires destroyed everything they had. Representatives from Nexus offered them a new safer place to settle if Mug would join the Nexus Knights. The small herding community was happy to trade Mug for a new place to live and he was happy to help the people who raised him, having been solemnly charged to spread the light of Aldur wherever he went. Nexus issued him with much better equipment to replace the club and door he had broken defending the now destroyed village and told him to go find other people who needed protecting and continue to smite evil in Aldur's name, as they directed him of course.
