Giants grow through their first four decades and continue slowly for the rest of their lives, so the eldest of a line are also the largest of it. Age is counted by hold and lineage.

Features

  • Titan-Descended

    You count as one size larger when determining your carrying capacity and the weight you can push, drag, or lift.

  • Elemental Inheritance

    Choose the Titan-line you descend from: storm, fire, frost, stone, or cloud. You gain resistance to one damage type associated with that line and can read and speak its dialect of Jotun.

  • Reach of the Old World

    Your unarmed strikes and any Large weapon you wield have 10 feet of reach.

  • Made, Not Born

    You have advantage on saving throws against being Frightened, and on Intelligence (History) checks concerning the Second Age and the Titans.

  • Ground Not Given

    Make one melee weapon attack against the creature at your extended reach. On a hit it must succeed on a Strength saving throw against 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier or be pushed 10 feet back the way it came. You can use this a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus per long rest.
