World Note 16
Added 2024-07-07 08:54:17 +0000 UTCGiants and their place in Midiora
Status: Human Sub-Race
Orgin: Very early mixing of humans with the titan race of giants. Orginal human giants were much larger but smaller giants had a much higher survival rate due to life span.
Average height: 9' to 12'
Average life span: 50 - 65 years
Cosmetic Characteristics: Giants are often defined by their much larger height but also are known for their barrel like torsos. Males often have well-defined pectoral muscles, and females have larger breasts, and both genders are known to have more volume in their hips and thighs. Giants, in general, burn fat more slowly and so are often rounder than humans in proportions.
Practical Characteristics: Human giants have several inproportional benefits, which makes them inherently dangerous. The first is compact and dense muscle fibers. Despite being a fraction of the orgin races size, they have nearly half the original strength of their Ansestors. A full-grown human giant can lift nearly 5 tons on average. As well as intense strength, they also have incredibly durable skins, which is a dense bond of magical elements. This makes damaging internal organs or even the surface elements difficult, and historical evidence has suggested that giants can survive even dragon fire. Giants have very few physical weaknesses, but are often Known to be reckless and arrogant which makes most socially unpredictable.
Notable Giants: Garthen V. Vitheral, Ganden V. Punk, Gellen V. Ratsent
