Frost Giants

[Bub_the_zombie]

Looking for referance for a Frost Giant city. Campaign I am running involves the party rescuing a fallen angel from a sacrificial alter the angel is entrapped in. I am looking for a whole city setup; kids, women, elders, etc... Never used them outside of just a monster.

Also any advice, things that work well with them.

Wizards has a free adventure on their website called The Crumbling Halls of the Frost Giant Jarl. You can find it here:

It's not a city, more of a keep but it could be a good jumping off point.

As for helpers, just take a look at the MM entry for Frost Giants. Winter Wolves, Ogres, and White Dragons are listed. Swap for flavor of your world or what you think works better.

And wotc posted recreations of the classic maps for The Glacial Rift of the Frost Giant Jarl back in 2006.

Fire giants & Hill giants had their classic map remakes posted as well.

Also if your making it a frost giant city, a quick look over the plain of fires main city, and substituting some of the rules for cold instead, could create a nice flavour.

Thanks!

Those maps from the Jarl will do nicely! Great starting point.

Where can I find the Plain of Fires main city? Is that DMG I know there is planar setting stuff in there. Sorry at work, no books. That idea will fit great with the whole artic tundra snow setting!
