Shrek
Shrek is a towering, green ogre with a fearsome appearance who lives as a recluse in a remote swamp, seeking solitude and peace away from the world. Despite his intimidating look, he possesses a kind heart and a grumpy demeanor, enjoying simple pleasures like mud showers and snacking on bugs and slugs. His peaceful existence is disrupted when Lord Farquaad banishes a host of fairy-tale creatures to his swamp, forcing Shrek to embark on a quest to rescue Princess Fiona from a dragon-guarded castle in exchange for reclaiming his land.
