Shrek is the titular main protagonist of the franchise with the same name.

In the first movie, he's introduced as a villainous protagonist.

Personality
In the first film, Shrek was initially overly aggressive and hostile towards strangers who wander into his swamp, an example of this is when several villagers came to kill him but then were left terrified when Shrek described ogres as ten times worse than giants after they fled in fear, the ogre gave a hearty chuckle and warned them to stay out.

However, behind this tough demeanor, Shrek was incredibly insecure and sought recluse from everyone as they judged him as a monster before getting to know him and believed that he was better off alone. When meeting new people Shrek was heavily sarcastic, when meeting Donkey the first time and asked for a place to stay Shrek agrees only to say no the second time he asks. Due to all the people, he met Shrek was used to being treated like a monster and was left surprised when Donkey had no problem with his appearance or his ogre roots.
