Forge giants are gargantuan giants with a dwarf-like appearance. With hair made of flames and blacksmithing skills unlike any other, these massive creatures guard the deepest and most important forges of the worlds they live in, while also using them. With four arms by their side, their smithing skills are not only fast, but efficient, and due to their primordial age, it is often said that many heroic dwarves searched these giants down like treasures, to learn only part of their forging skills. Souls of Fire, Bodies of Steel. Forge giants are near mythological creatures, as strong as they are wise, but perhaps not the most intelligent due to their isolated nature. When a forge giant dies, their souls, made from the very flames of the cores in the planets they live on, will survive, and eventually, with the help of other, living giants, they can reconstruct the body of the soul, no matter how damaged it may be, but this takes time, and it is during the last few hours of cooling down, that the forge giants are most vulnerable. |
