Ecology

Lantern Giant is descended from the ancient ordning, occupying mountain holds, deep glaciers, or sky-realms above the clouds. It is most often found in underwater regions. It is huge-sized, which shapes how it hunts, hides, or fights.

Behaviour

Lantern Giant is proud, rank-conscious, and slow to anger — but devastating when roused. Its Neutral alignment shapes how it engages with the world — predictable in tendency, even when unpredictable in detail. It is intelligent enough to plan, scheme, or remember.

Origin

Lantern Giant is introduced in Kobold Press's Tome of Beasts 3 (2022). Giant lineages trace to the ordning, the ancient hierarchy that placed each giant kind in cosmic rank below the gods. Within a campaign, its existence anchors a region with the kind of weight only an old, named species carries.
