Homebrew Frost Goliaths Species Details

The frost goliaths live on the highest mountain peaks—far above the tree line, where the air is thin and frigid winds howl. Distantly related to frost giants and infused with the supernatural essence of their ancestors’ mountainous home, frost goliaths stand between 10 and 14 feet tall and have a wide array of skin tones resembling different types of frozen stone.
