Giant

^{Home > Rulebook > Races > Giant}
These hulking, large humanoids are known for their towering presence, effortless strength, and their larger-then-life personalities. Giants wander around and explore the small world around them, testing their strength almost constantly with the smaller creatures, even believing that they are more superior and above the rules of others. Giants are considered fairly troublesome due to their nature, but are known to show amazing hospitality, companionship and be a very beloved ally in any battle.

Characteristics

Giants are known characteristically for their giant, hulking bodies that are exceptionally larger then others, with a bulkier chest and wider shoulders then most other creatures of their size, with large heads, and usually a very muscular body due to their own size.

Giants are very extreme in their personalities, never being afraid to express their innate, true selves, and having quite simplistic hobbies, such as cheesemaking or farming. Giants are willing to do anything for these hobbies. These simplistic livestyles are a beloved trait with the Giants, being the most relatable. Due to these lifestyles, Giants are known to have relatively good insight on various events, especially in a complex world.

Native Environments

Giants are known to reside in a specific location, their form changing based on their biome that they are from. Giants tend to stay within these areas due to their bodies having natural advantages towards the areas. Giants are associated with their biome first and foremost, their body truly forming while they reside in an area for the first few years when they are born.

History

Giant history used to be much more diverse, being a whole society a long, long time ago. They communicated with one another amongst a small planet, before infighting and pestilence occurred, causing them to fracture and travel to new locations, separating permanently from other Giants, out of fear of the infighting to occur again.

Society & Culture

Giants had a rich society in the past, working with each other in their own areas to create a harmonious society in their circle, constantly raiding and pillaging various other races, they were initially very aggressive. Over time, they showed more trust and kindness to those around them, before the society of Giants eventually got horribly sick as plagues started spreading, those who were uninfected left the society, living in solitude and isolation from others.
