Warning
This Half-Giant is a member of the Half-Giant race on Arelith and although they fall under the Giant racial categorization in game, they MUST not be roleplayed as a Giant.
Irongron - Sun 24 Jul, 2022: And a reminder - don't RP as a full giant. I was cautious about adding these races not for power, but frequency and RP, I don't want to be required gate or remove the reward so soon.
