[QUOTE="Big Mac, post: 4420006, member: 61182"] [b]Swamp Giant NPC[/b] I don't know if you want to convert this guy (as a swamp giant NPC) or just use his stats and fluff as a guide, but I think he is useful: [B]Sully Gatherer-Clan[/B] [B]Name:[/B] Sully Gatherer-Clan [B]Occupation:[/B] Swamp Giant King Str: 24 Int: 10 Dex: 12 Cha: 18 Wis: 10 Con: 22 Sully of the Harvest Clan has served as king of the swamp giants for the past three decades. Well into middle-age for a swamp giant, he works to retain his great strength and health, knowing that if he begins to weaken he will be challenged for the kingship. Sully is the only swamp giant who has been off of Chislev, and he is the only giant on his world to truly have mastered hand-to-hand fighting techniques. As a child, he was captured by spelljamming pirates and sold into slavery to an unscupulous land baron in Shou Lung. Escaping after four years of hard labor, the young giant was befriended by a band of Shou Lung adventurers who took to the stars aboard a spelljammer. Sully accompanied them, and eventually their travels took them back to Sully's home. It was because of Sully that the Shou Lung group decided to explor the planet. Sully became king at age 60, after killing an adult green dragon with his bare hands. He has ruled the swamp giants well, appointing leaders over the communities and meeting with these leaders to discuss various common problems. A prime concern is the aggressive green dragons. Sully has passed down combat techniques he learned in Shou Lung, which have proved fairly effective in fighting the great lizards. Still, he has not been able to obliterate the threat. It is because of Sully that spelljamming adventurers are welcomed by the swamp giants. Prior to Sully's return, these giants - like the humans and demihumans of Chislev - feared and sometimes attacked visitors. Tribes of giants not beholden to Sully are rumored to exist deep in the jungles. Sully is cordial and cooperative with all neutral and good-aligned spelljamming visitors. He is quick to strike up trade agreements and to allow humans and demihumans to hire his people as guides. The swamp giants have learned which plants are most prized by humans and demihumans and have no qualms about allowing the small people to take as many plants as they can carry. The giants know there is no shortage of vegitation on Chislev. Originally appeared in SJR7 - Krynnspace (1993). [/QUOTE]
