[QUOTE="seasong, post: 655478, member: 5137"] [color=orange][b]Giants[/b][/color] Giants are not well known in the Theralis region, but have occasionally been seen. For the most part, giants are big, lumbering children of the wild, content to eat what they can catch, sleep curled against cliffs or mountain sides, amuse themselves by tossing things at other things... mostly harmless, occasionally dangerous, and almost always far away from civilized regions where they tend to be attacked and hurt. However, making any kind of sweeping statement about giants is dangerous, for they are creatures of primal clay, and more prone to change than most. Giants may be born with one eye, or three, two heads, or four arms... they range in size from a pathetic ten feet in height to an awe-inspiring thirty feet, and some are particularly foolish.. or frighteningly intelligent. In ancient mythology, of civilizations prior to Theralis' birth, there was said to be a giant of incredible size and cunning (Aphoros) who became a world-reknown smith, forging weapons and armor of great power before aging gracefully and dying in his sleep, millenia ago. Still, certain commonalities do occur. A number of giants, slightly smaller and smarter than their brethren, are said to live in the north, while giants of colossal proportion are said to walk the forests far to the south. And while the specifics of all giants can not be nailed down, most are, essentially, very large children and can be reasoned with as such. [/QUOTE]
