Standing more than twice as tall as the tallest giantman, the frost giant trails frost and snow in his wake. Seemingly carved from living ice and snow, icy blue eyes set beneath a heavily furrowed brow and a tangled mop of icy blue hair provide a splash of color against the frost giant's dull white frost-covered skin.

Hunting strategies

The frost giant is vulnerable to fire. When taking fire damage, the frost giant takes an additional damage roll, causing extra damage to the foe:

 ** Your black speckled rapier flares with a burst of flame! **

   ... 15 points of damage!
   Minor burns to back. Looks uncomfortable.

The frost giant screams in agony as the flames barbecue her flesh!
   ... 20 points of damage!
   Burst of flames to right hand burns fingers bright red.

Other information

  • Shakes off stuns. Immune to stun-inducing combat maneuvers like Subdue.
