Crunch
Crunch is a male ogre from Xanth. He was first introduced in The Source of Magic.
Crunch is the husband of Sleeping Beauty and father of Smash.
Crunch became a vegetarian who does not eat humans after he was cursed when he "rescued" a curse fiend actress dressed as an ogress from danger that was actually staged. However, the two became smitten.

Character notes
Notes
Human men and women will not have a species in their entries. Also, if the surname of the character is the character's species, it was dropped.
If the character is a child, it will be in the description. The child will more than likely be an adult by this time in the Xanth series.
Many species are single gender, so their entries will not mention it. The species are Fury, Muse, basilisk, cenmaid, cenmare, cockatrice, dryad, maenad, sand witch, sandman, and woodwife. Harpies and nymphs are usually female, and fauns are usually male; but there have been a few exceptions that are noted.
In some instances, I have made educated guesses on gender, species, and some birth years.
