Building Frightening Fire Giant Culture

Refresh ideas about the giants that live in furious warfare.

Hey, look, we still love Giants. So join us as we explore the culture of Fire Giants! Go past their angry exterior and discover what really motivates them, how they treat humanoids, what they do when they are not fighting, how they talk to each other, and plenty more fiery fun. By the end, we hope you know exactly what to do when you pull a Fire Giant out of the ol' creature stash. Our favorite part of monsters is what lives beyond the stat block. To get into what makes Fire Giants unique, we went to Kinship Camp, and turned to our Culture Creator. You'll hear great additions that you can use to roleplay fire giants to their fullest in your games. We go from broad strokes, like talking about their cultural values and beliefs, all the way down to suggesting that they yell "Rust!" when frustrated, or give away forge hammers as a thank you.

The next step, then, is creating specific NPC's from the culture. So we head to The Extradimensional Gateway to pull a badass from history into D&D as a Fire Giant. We won't give it all away, but expect an unstoppable warrior/restauranteur. She's awesome and will add a lot to your party's next pit stop. Gotta give credit to badassoftheweek.com for inspiring this one.
