MM III question-death giants

[Shade]

Here, have a handkerchief...

I was just lamenting WOTC's lack of truly gigantic giants. So buck up, little soldier.

I've always thought that it's daft having Giants as a Type. Although they are 'usually Large size or larger' (from SRD) you could technically have a Fine Giant.

And have you ever seen a Huge (or larger) (Monstrous) Humanoid?

 

[BOZ]

nope. Giant probably should just be a subtype of humanoid - that way we can retain things like giant slaying and such.

Huge Humanoid:
Red Psicean, CC 2

Huge + Monstrous Humanoid
Shinomen Naga, Constrictor (Oriental Adventures version)
Ormyrr
Kuo-Toa Leviathan




But yes, a three-tier distinction like that isn't helpful without some help when to apply humanoid, giant or monstrous humanoid.

Also, it drives me nuts that humanoid = no special vision, monstrous humanoid = darkvision, and giant = low-light vision. :\
