Storm Giant

A colossal giant wreathed in perpetual storm clouds, wielding lightning as both weapon and will.

The Storm Giant stands at the apex of the mountain, a living conduit between earth and sky. Lightning arcs constantly between its fingers, and the air around it crackles with enough static to stand your hair on end from a hundred paces away. Unlike the brute-force hill giants or the cunning frost giants, the storm giant commands the weather itself. Thunder rolls with its every step, and the clouds above twist to obey its gestures. It speaks in a voice like rolling thunder, and those few who have survived an audience say it considers all smaller races as insects beneath its notice. When it fights, the entire mountain becomes its weapon — lightning rods channel destruction across the arena, cyclones hurl warriors like ragdolls, and the very ground crackles with lethal electrical current. Bring your best, bring many, and pray the storm passes.
