Homebrew Frost Giant Species Details
Frost giants, called isejotunen in their own tongue, are imposing giants from the northern regions of the world. The bodies of these giants are a spectrum of blue and white shades, thick skin, and pure raw muscle. Mighty warriors, some have sought to travel the world in hopes of facing off against powerful foes. Others, like Harshnag, feel the call to adventure and travel the lands as mighty warriors.
