Frost Giant

**(from - Baldur's Gate_ Dark Alliance - )** (Info: There isn’t much information about the “giant.”) (mythology: In Germanic and Norse mythology, the **jötnar** (singular *jötunn* or **jǫtunn** in Old Norse) were a race of beings—often referred to as "giants"—possessing superhuman strength. They are described as the adversaries of their kin, the gods (the Æsir and the Vanir), even though they frequently intermingled or even intermarried with them. They are also compared to other non-human races, such as dwarves or elves, though such categorizations are not always mutually exclusive. The beings classified as *jötnar* are known by various other names; for instance, males may be called **risi**, **þurs** (or **thurs**), or **troll**, while females may be referred to as **gýgr** or **tröllkona**. The **jötnar** typically dwell on the fringes of the realms of gods and humans, in lands such as Jötunheim.)
