Mountain Giant

traveling with him. As long as the beings travel with the keeper of the grove, they leave no tracks or trail, unless the keeper wishes them to. The keeper may exclude specific individuals from the effects this ability. This ability can affect a number of creatures equal to 6 + the keeper's Spirit modifier. Mountain Giant Like the other creatures presented here, mountain giants are ancient allies of the night elves. In ages past, they assisted the titans with the creation of the world: They craft

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Mountain giants are proficient in the use of their natural weapons and with all simple weapons. They are not proficient with armor.

Spell Resistance (Ex): Mountain giants have spell resistance equal to 10 + their racial Hit Dice (not level).

Growth (Ex): A mountain giant achieves Large size at 8th level and Huge size at 16th level. These changes have the following effects: Large: The mountain giant's space and reach each increase to 10 feet. It takes a -1 size penalty to AC and a -1 size penalty on attack rolls. The mountain giant's base slam damage increases to 2d6 points of damage and it may make two slam attacks (as a full attack) with no penalty on the attack rolls. If it uses manufactured weapons, it must wield weapons of Large size or take penalties. Similarly, it must wear armor appropriately sized for it, which costs double. Its lifting and carrying capacities double. It takes a -4 penalty on Stealth checks to hide, but gains a +4 bonus on grapple checks and on checks to avoid being tripped. Huge: The mountain giant's space and reach each increase to 15 feet. It takes a further -1 size penalty to AC and a -1 size penalty on attack rolls (-2 total). The mountain giant's base slam damage increases to 3d6 points of damage. It must wield manufactured weapons of Huge size or take penalties. Similarly, it must wear armor appropriately sized for it, which costs four times as much as normal. Its lifting and carrying capacities double (its lifting and carrying capacities are now four times those of a Medium creature). It takes an additional -4 penalty on Stealth checks to hide (total -8), but gains an additional +4 bonus on grapple checks and on checks to avoid being tripped (total +8). Note that the mountain giant's gear does not grow along with it.

Rock Throwing (Ex): At 10th level, the mountain giant is skilled at throwing boulders and receives a +1 racial bonus on attack rolls when throwing rocks. Rocks that a mountain giant throws have a range increment of 120 feet. A mountain giant of Large size can hurl rocks weighing 40 to 50 pounds each (Small objects) up to five range increments. These rocks deal 2d6 points of bludgeoning damage. A Huge mountain giant can hurl rocks of 60 to 80 pounds (Medium objects) that deal 2d8 points of damage.

Rock Catching (Ex): At 17th level, the mountain giant can catch Small, Medium, or Large rocks (or projectiles of similar shape). Once per round, if the mountain giant would normally be hit by a rock, it can make a Reflex save to catch it as a free action. The DC is 15 for a Small rock, 20 for a Medium one, and 25 for a Large one. (If the projectile provides a magic bonus on attack rolls, the DC increases by that amount.) The mountain giant must be ready for and aware of the attack in order to make a rock catching attempt. Vital Statistics Ancient protectors, dryads, keepers of the grove, and mountain giants are all immortal, so they never take aging penalties or die of old age. Use the following table to generate random heights and weights for 1st-level characters of these races. Remember that ancient protectors and mountain giants grow larger and heavier as they gain levels.
