Focus On Hill Giants, Frost Giants and Fire Giants
Posted: Thu Aug 07, 2008 3:30 pmAll giants have a humanoid shape, large size and great strength. Regardless of the category, giants have little patience. They disregard all other races and will gladly take by force what they want from others. Tribes of Fire and Frost giants are well organised with a strong hierarchy. Ambitious and expansionnist, they often attempt to conquer humanoid lands.
