The Ogri are a species of silicon-based creatures native to Ogros. They look like large rocks, usually taller than a human but irregular in shape. They are large, slow and heavy, sometimes weighing as much as 3.5 tons, but they can take a lot of damage, both energy-based and physical. When they are awake, they glow and make a loud rumbling noise. Like other silicon-based lifeforms, they break down into grit when killed and also leave silicon behind when they move. They feed on various types of proteins which are common on Ogros. When on Earth, the Ogri had to rely on the globulin in blood, which they could absorb by touch. Ogri were not shown to communicate and did not show any signs of intelligence. Ogri have long lifespans, living for thousands of years.
Cessair of Diplos took three Ogri from Ogros, which she used for protection and to impress the humans of Earth. These Ogri waited with the Nine Travellers until they were awoken by Cessair or her followers. (DW: The Stones of Blood)
