Forest giants are the guardians of Cerilia's woodlands, protecting it from incursions of evil, and destructive logging or clearing. They are found in the deepest forests, far from human settlements. Forest giants appear as great, gnarly humanoids, with wood-like skin, dark leafy hair, and long, root-like fingers and feet. They stand roughly 14 feet tall, weighing close to 7,000 pounds.
Combat
Forest giants generally shy away from combat, except when to protect their precious forests. In that situation, they wade into combat with murderous fury, making full use of their many spell-like abilities.
Spell-like abilities: At will - entangle, speak with animals, speak with plants; 1/day - hold monster, summon nature's ally V, wall of thorns. These abilities are as the spells, cast by a 16th-level druid (save DC 10 + spell level).
Fire vulnerability (Ex): On a failed save, forest giants take double damage from fire.
Skills: Forest giants receive a +8 racial bonus on hide checks in forest terrain.
