Okay, so you had them as firbolgs and half-firbolgs in your original ideas. In 3E we went with a general, ceremonial race of giants. Those of H-T were referred to as the Fira.
I think we can make a subrace of giant-kin for the half-breeds. That would be cool.
But I have a few Q's.
1. Should we have full giants and half-giants in H-T? (I am happy to).
2. Who ARE the giants? Do we go back to firbolgs? Do we use something similar to firbolgs and continue to call them fira?
3. What sort of stats/powers are we looking at. If firbolg-like (as above), then this is answered. :)
4. What is their model culture? Firbolgs are Irish, but I take it this is not the case here. I actually thought that making the Giants Russian in influence would help with your blending of Russian and Asian/Japanese/Korean/Nepalese cultures.
5. Just to be clear. Giants rule the provinces. They have half-kin from mating with humans. Are any of the half-giants allowed to rule? DO they? (I take it there are still noble human houses in the provinces, they are just not the RULING house)?
(Also, when I ask all this, it does not have to be what you had initially, what we bashed together for Kage, I want to know what we do from here. Even how you really pictured these giants in your mind Blair. We can get back to how you really pictured this/them).
