Bestiary entry
Many things fall from the sky other than rain and snow. Frogs, for example… And the Cloud Giant.– Sibald “Fang” Faalde, shepherd from Fox Hollow.
The Cloud Giant is most likely a degenerated illusory being. He is an inhabitant of the castle in the sky in the Land of a Thousand Fables. This land was abandoned and left untended for years, during which time it began to rot, fester and degrade.
The Cloud Giant was most likely meant to be a pleasant-natured strongman who would carry the duke’s young daughters on his shoulders and never grow tired. When he became degenerated and overgrown, however, he turned into a dangerous monster.
After Jack stole his goose that laid golden eggs, the Cloud Giant decided in the future anyone who climbed onto his cloud would be tossed off, without a word of warning.
The Cloud Giant resembles a clumsy, overgrown human and appears to be capable of reason, though he says nothing and does not seem too interested in any other form of communication.
One gets the impression he has a musical bent. He displays a fascination with gold, which he does not, however, seem to spend or exchange for anything useful.
The Giant is slow and rather sluggish, though he does have decent reflexes and is quite observant. He attacks without warning, using whatever happens to be at hand.
He has learned to use his natural surroundings, meaning the cloud on which he lives, to aid him while fighting: he will jump inside the cloud and pop out in an entirely different place, surprising his opponent.
The Cloud Giant is immune to most of the Signs. He can be hurt by burning, but the Axii Sign will in no way hinder him. He’s vulnerable to blows from a sword and thunderbolts.
