Any Underground Giants?

[Gnome]

Has anyone seen a type of giant in any published product that lives primarily underground? I was about to roll my own, but I thought I'd check to be sure I'm not duplicating something that's already out there.

I was thinking a supernatural ability to reduce size at will would get round the obvious problem of these guys fitting through smaller tunnels and the like.

Hmmm the SRDs don't seem to be working...
I can't think of anything giant-type that lives underground. I keep thinking of other things, like the Athach. Also, there's kinda the opposite of what you are asking LOL one of the underground dwarf-type races can enlarge themselves. I can't remember if it's so many times a day or at will though. Duergar?

I know, probably no help at all LOL

Actually, I think there is an Underdark giant somewhere.... Maur? I think that's the name... or something close.

The Duergar can use enlarge and invisibility 1/day

There's a Phaerlin Giant from Monsters of Faerun that only lives underground. CR3 only, with 8 HD so quite a weak giant, particularly since it's Huge. You can advance it to 16 HD Huge Giant, but that doesn't gain you all that much.

Stone giants, Ogres and Trolls, IIRC live underground.
Also, in "Crystalmancy: the Powers of the Gems" theres an Onyx Giant that is skinny and guant and has innate animate dead and also can animate gem bones (skeletons with gem-encrusted bones).

Don't forget the formorian giants.
