IMO, yes. Aside from anything else, if they were all (say) wareran,
they'd be pretty easy to distinguish from 'normal humans' in most parts
of Pamaltela. Or the orient, for that matter. Which would rather spoil
the point of them :-)

Equally determined by both, I'd suspect. And remember, humans who engage
in cannibalism can transform into ogres (Anaxial's Roster p.181), and
they'd obviously keep their original 'race'.
>Are ogres fertile with other races such as mermen, elves, or trollkin?

No. Indeed, the correct term for cannibalistic trollkin is 'perfectly
normal' :-)
