[QUOTE="Autumnal, post: 9483163, member: 6671663"] Include natural sources of noise. In particular, falling water. Have there been many, or at least several, streams that take plunges from time to time. If it’s a very magical area, include some streams that fall upward. To get a general feeling for the resulting acoustics, stand in your bathroom and run the tub and/or shower taps, the sink tap(s), and flush the toilet. While they run, recite poetry. Include occasionally noisy wildlife and plants. Climbing and scurrying creatures, plants with metal-rich stalks and petals that sometimes clatter while opening and closing, amphibians that surface every half hour to breathe with airholes that sound like leather rubbing leather, and so on. Give PCs a bit of magical or extraordinary help with quietness. Creatures that eat sound and can be raised as pets, maybe? Just, in general, make the giants’ homes and workplaces as noisy as they’d be in a busy city’s residential and commercial quarters. [/QUOTE]
