Giants

Giants are one of the Great Races of Nexus, connected to the plane of Ostoria. All Giants trace their lineage back to the rulers of this plane, the Giant Gods, and in particular Annam, the All-Father. Due to this ancient lineage, the Giants are infused with an incredible amount of Magic, and the Fates- Many of whom live in Ostoria- take very, very kindly to them.

Giants have the appearance of being tall humanoid thingies, but this is not the exclusive feature of the Giants, and there are many "Giant"-sized Humanoids which are not, in fact, Giants. Giants proper are defined through their connection to Annam... Or, more typically, Annam's children, and each Giant is taught their true and full ancestry from a young age, by the Fates in their dreams, their parents, or even scholars. But they must know it through some method, a mandate of the All-Father. If asked, most giants will proudly recall their full ancestry, sometimes taking several hours, or even days, to do so. Few shorten it, despite the impracticality, and in fact, many find ways to lengthen their own ancestry; Ajax, a powerful and famous Ikreadoseon Storm Giant, does this quite simply by also listing his and his ancestors' many titles. "I am the Storm Lord Ajax, Breaker of Serpents, Father of Thunder, the Great Hammer, Lover to the Skies... Son of the Former Storm Lord Aldrix, the Dragon's Bane..." Rumour has it, he will eventually mention Annam.
