[QUOTE="Weiley31, post: 8646245, member: 7017196"] Really wasn't expecting another UA so soon. And it being Giant focused. But in DND, Giants and Dragons have waged war against each other. As for the classes, bit neutral on them. The Druid Primeval subclass seems to invoke the idea of how Druids used to have a main feature where they got an Animal Companion. Now instead of the Tasha's "free find animal familiar option," or giving a house rule where you give the Druid the use of the Tasha's [I]Beasts of...[/I] upgrade, your actually getting a Druid with a [I]ACTUAL[/I] animal companion. [I](still prefer the Tasha's house rule route in that regard, but hey, Huge pets now.)[/I] Which is actually interesting as now, outside of the Rune Knight, we're kinda getting player options where sizes [I]PAST[/I] Small/Medium are happening. No clarification on rules on how your sizes are treated in regard to various things though. (since, ya know, WoTC is still trying to "avoid" technical headaches.) But the Feats? [B][I]HOOOOO BOY [/I][/B]I'm liking em. Especially in the way that I allow racial feats. Like, you could totally allow these feats as Racial Feat options for Dwarves (bloodline link to Giants/Runes), Genasi (we got all the Elements covered), [I]ANY[/I] Giant/Giant-Kin related races (Firbolg, Oni/Ogre Mages, etc, etc, *note: that's a refluffing thing but whatever), Aarakocra (aside from being flying/wing related, remember in older editions four or more could summon an Air Elemental) or even Tiefling (Fire with fire feat.)
