Homebrew Firbolg (totally not the 5e version) Species Details

Firbolgs resembled humans, and the males would sport great, thick beards. Their thick, tough skin was fleshy pink, and their hair, though it came in many colors, was usually either red or blonde and worn long. A firbolg's voice was deep and smooth, and they tended to roll their consonants when speaking.

Firbolgs were typically over 10 feet (3 meters) tall, averaging a height of about 10.5 feet (3.2 meters). While firbolgs from other worlds weighed more than 800 pounds (360 kilograms), those of Faerûn were lighter, with males being about 650 pounds (290 kilograms) and females about 500 pounds (230 kilograms).

The firbolgs of the Moonshae Isles were said to be considerably ugly.
