Frost Giants
Frost Giants are the largest and most intelligent of all the Gigantae species known. They are Noble Giants, so named for their intelligence and compatability with other races. Living in the far northern climes and on the highest peaks of tall mountains, these giants are truly the rulers of the Giant world. Frost Giants have been seen standing a staggering 30' tall, and have been estimated to weight as much as 8,000 lbs.

Highly skilled in metal working, weaponsmithing, and seamanship. Capable of hunting huge aquatic monsters routinely and successfully from specialized ships.
Common Customs, Traditions and Rituals
The Kings of Frost Giant society wear massive crowns displaying huge horns. Some of these crowns are made of wood, others ivory tusks, and others of bone. All represent a tradition of horns as representative of great power, and thus these crowns are universally known as "Horns of Power".
Interspecies Relations and Assumptions
Often found living and working with Storm Giants, sometimes in the same communities. Not openly hostile to any particular humanoid species, but do not like or ever associate with Lesser Giants (Mountain, Hill, ogres or Trolls). Frequently hunt and kill White Dragon, Giant Kraken and Leviathan for food and resources.
