Homebrew Giant Species Details

Giants are tall, large human variants that excel in feats involving their natural strength or intimidation.

Giants can be born from any human, the cause being a genetic condition known as Giantism. Their lifespans are often ~10 years shorter than the average human because of the inability to gain the energy required to fuel their larger bodies.

Giants have no biological relation to other giant species. (hill, cloud, fire, etc.)
