Potato hails from a tribe of Ogres in the Barren Northen Planes of Ederon North-West of the ruins of Lorederon. His father was the chief of the Ogre barbarian village, Ogktar, his mother a Human who left him on his father’s doorstep in a leather backpack. The young Half-Ogre never heard rumours of her great beauty and power from the Ogre villagers. Despite being allowed by the elders to remain with his father, Potato was shunned and ridiculed due to his half human heritage.
When Potato was 12, he was out hunting with his tribe, when he suddenly found himself alone. His tiny half-human legs could not keep up with the Ogres strides, and although her could hear his father calling for him for the first 2 days, he could never find him, and spent a year alone in the woods, living off the land. One afternoon, whilst chasing a frog to eat, Potato stumbled across Hayden Glick, who was out hunting. Startled by how emaciated the young Half-Ogre was, Hayden took Potato back South to his tavern, "The Wenches Legs" to feed him, and named me after the one food that he would eat; the only Human word he knew until he started receiving proper lessons in the language. Spending time in the swaps and woods surrounding Newhaven, Potato hones his ranger abilities, returning to the tavern when food was scarce, until Hayden offered a job in the kitchen just before Potato turned 14. Hayden treated the Half-Ogre as his son who, in turn, worked hard to develop Hayden's allotment and gardens on the property. Potato has lived in Newhaven at "The Wenches Legs" ever since.
