Their arms hang lower than a man's, while their legs are shorter than their arms, ending in splayed and horny feet that need no shoes even in the coldest weather. Giants have sloped chests, and their lower torsos are about half again as wide as their upper torsos. Their eyesight is poor and they snuffle constantly, smelling as much as they see. They have squashed-in faces with square teeth and tiny eyes amidst folds of horny flesh. Their heads are thrust forward from their shoulder blades. The fur of older giants becomes grey and streaked with white. They are covered by a shaggy pelt of fur that is thicker below their waists than above. They are capable of great feats of strength such as wrenching the bars of an iron gate apart. Giants generally grow between ten to fourteen feet tall. ![]()
