| Description |
All giants speak Giant. Those with Intelligence scores of at least 10 also speak Common. Spell-Like Abilities: Cloud giants who dwell on cloud islands (see below) can use the following as the spells cast by a 15th-level sorcerer: 3/day-levitate (self plus 2,000 pounds) and obscuring mist; 1/day-fog cloud. Rock Throwing (Ex): Adult giants are accomplished rock throwers and receive a +1 racial bonus to attack rolls when throwing rocks. A giant of at least Large size can hurl rocks weighing 40 to 50 pounds each (Small objects) up to 5 range increments. The size of the range increment varies with the giant's variety. A Huge giant can hurl rocks of 60 to 80 pounds (Medium-size objects). Rock Catching (Ex): A giant of at least Large size can catch Small, Medium-size, or Large rocks (or projectiles of similar shape). Once per round, a giant that would normally be hit by a rock can make a Reflex save to catch it as a free action. The DC is 15 for a Small rock, 20 for a Medium-size one, and 25 for a Large one. (If the projectile has a magical bonus to attack, the DC increases by that amount.) The giant must be ready for and aware of the attack. Skills: Cloud giants have EHD as though they were large creatures. Feats: Cloud giants have EHD as though they were large creatures.
