Most wear hides and furs, though some wear clothing reminscent to human commoners.Adults are about 30 feet tall and weigh about 30,000 pounds. Brobdingnagians can live to be 400 years old.A brobdingnagian’s bag usually contains 2d6 throwing rocks, 1d4+3 mundane items, and the giant's personal wealth. These possessions tend to be broken or in disrepair.CombatBrobdingnagians prefer to smash opponents and objects with massive clubs and beefy fists. A brobdingnagian generally employs 10-point Power Attack. If it can't hit its foes, it will generally drop down to 5 points the next round; if it hits easily, it will use full Power Attack in following rounds. A brobdingnagian also enjoys sundering weapons and defensive structures.Fling (Ex): A brobdingnagian who sucessfully grapples a foe two or more size categories smaller than itself can hurl the creature as a standard action. A flung creature travels up to 120 feet and takes 12d6 points of damage. A creature that is flung off a mountain or other great height takes this amount of damage or the appropriate falling damage, whichever is greater. The brobdingnagian also can throw the flung creature as though it were a boulder. In this case, the flung creature takes 12d6+14 points of damage, and any opponent it strikes takes 4d6+14 points of damage.Rock Throwing (Ex): The range increment is 140 feet for a Gargantuan brobdingnagian’s thrown rocks. Adult brobdingnagians are accomplished rock throwers and receive a +1 racial bonus on attack rolls when throwing rocks. A brobdingnagian can hurl rocks weighing 80 to 160 pounds each (Large objects) up to five range increments.Rock Catching (Ex): A Gargantuan brobdingnagian can catch rocks (or projectiles of similar shape) of up to Gargantuan size. Once per round, a brobdingnagian that would normally be hit by a rock can make a Reflex save to catch it as a free action. The DC is 15 for a Small rock, 20 for Medium, 25 for Large, 30 for Huge, and 35 for a Gargantuan one (If the projectile provides a magical bonus on attack rolls, the DC increases by that amount.) The brobdingnagian must be ready for and aware of the attack in order to make a rock catching attempt.Brobdingnagians as CharactersBrobdingnagian characters possess the following racial traits.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> +28 Strength, –2 Dexterity, +20 Constitution, –4 Intelligence, –4 Charisma.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> Gargantuan size. –4 penalty to Armor Class, –4 penalty on attack rolls, –12 penalty on Hide checks, +12 bonus on grapple checks, lifting and carrying limits eight times those of Medium characters.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> Space/Reach: 20 feet/20 feet.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> A brobdingnagian's base land speed is 60 feet.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> Low-light vision.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> Racial Hit Dice: A brobdingnagian begins with 24 levels of giant, which provide 24d8 Hit Dice, a base attack bonus of +18, and base saving throw bonuses of Fort +14, Ref +8, and Will +8.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> Racial Skills: A brobdingnagian's giant levels give it skill points equal to 27 x (2 + Int modifier).
