=== Act One ===
Lump is found in the Blighted Village. He and his two other Ogre companions {{CharLink|Chock}} and {{CharLink|Fank}} have found work checking other creatures for the mark of the [[Absolute]]. If the party approaches Lump, he will check them as well. If the party have not received the brand of the absolute from Priestess {{CharLink|Gut}}, Lump will attack unless he can be convinced not to check for the mark with a [[Deception]] [[Skill Check]] at [[Difficulty Class|DC]] 10.

Whatever choice used to convince him, he will give {{SmRarityItem|Lump's War Horn}} to call him with. It's possible to summon Lump and two Ogre companions a total of three times. If for whatever reason you [[Sleight of Hand|pickpocketed]] the horn off of him, blowing it will lead to a fight as he deduces the party stole the horn.

==Tactics==
'''Lump''' has the potent combination of high intelligence and ogre which he uses effectively. If the party is far enough, he'll cast Blur which will make him more difficult to hit. Breaking his [[Concentration]] can also be tricky considering his high [[Constitution]]. He will also throw around Acid Arrow to create {{Area|Acid (surface)}} surfaces to soften up. In melee like the other ogres, his strength allows him to hit often and for a high amount of damage. He will also exploit an enemy's use of {{SAI|Grease}} with a {{SAI|Fire Bolt}} if anyone is unfortunate enough to get caught in the crossfire

While an oddity for his kind, '''Lump''' still has quite the low [[Wisdom]] which makes him vulnerable to many spells. His AC is also quite low, even if its a bit higher than the other ogres. Bursting him down with powerful spells and strong melee attacks like [[Divine Smite]] will stop him from unleashing too much damage. {{Area|Smokepowder (surface)|inline=true}} is also quite effective against him.
