Frost Giant

Introduction
Frost giants, called isejotunen in their own language, were large giants that lived in caverns or castles in cold, mountainous environments.

Description
Almost always evil creatures, these giants stood 4.6 m. tall and weighed around 1270 kg. They had pale skin with a blue hue to it and either gray or white dirty hair and wore skins or pelts, along with some form of armor they owned. Their eye color usually matched their hair color, but some have an arcane blue light burning within their iris.

Combat
In combat, frost giants would hurl rocks and then close in with battleaxes. They were immune to cold, but particularly vulnerable to fire, and had low-light vision. Their power visual senses extended into a higher end of the visible spectrum, allowing them to see more easily through snow and blizzards than other creatures. They would take prisoners if possible.

Society
These giants lived up to 250 years in societies led by a "Himbrydr" which was the title used to describe the leader of a frost giant community. They were usually the most powerful in their tribe and usually had the best equipment. They often survived by means of hunts and raids, although they were not below trading if the need arose. In frost giant society, the most important bond except that of the ordning was the family bond. The ordning was determined by a combination of the individual's ability to wrestle and boast.

Relations with Other Races
Frost Giants usualy dominated their frosty homelands, but not without forging long lasting enemies with Dwarves, Arctic Dwarves and Mountain Orcs. Frost Giants find Arctic Dwarves to be useful workers and it's not uncommon that Frost Giants enslave arctic dwarves to use them as builders, carving out mountain homes for the Frost Giants. Mountain orcs and frost giants often fight each other for territory.
