Popiel the Half-Ogre

Prince Popiel was a legendary ruler of the West Slavic tribe of Goplan and Polans. He was an evil and bad ruler, so mice ate him alive in a Kruszwica Tower.

And my fantasy is weird and... I've created a theory that he was a half-ogre. Slavic tribes were battling with ogres!

And so, Popiel was so evil and corrupted that he had to be a half-ogre. Because only ogres were such evil rulers.
His 12 uncles wanted to kill him, but his wife told Popiel about this plot to overthrow him and... Popiel and his german wife poisoned them. And they saw mice, run, run, swim across the lake, run to the tower on an island and there they were eaten alive by mice.

Ogres are scared of mice. So he HAD TO BE an ogre.....

See?
