<ref name="mm5.153">{{Cite Pub|Monster Manual (5e)|pages=153}} Licensed: &copy; Wizards of the Coast.</ref> Storm giants are contemplative seers that live… far removed from… civilization. Most have pale purple-gray skin and hair, and glittering emerald eyes. [Others have] violet skin [and hair] or blue-black hair, silvery gray or purple eyes.
<ref name="mm5.153" /> Storm giants live… isolated… far above the surface of the world or below the sea… Some make… cloud-top castles…. Some occupy palaces… at the bottom of the ocean, or… in undersea rifts.
<ref name="mm5.153" /> Storm giants recall the glory of ancient giant empires forged by the god {{5ed5ep|Annam}}. They seek to restore what was lost when those empires fell.
<ref name="mm5.153" /> Storm giants communicate infrequently with others of their kind. They do so
usually to compare signs and omens or engage in a rare courtship.
<ref name="volo.31-33">{{Cite Pub|Volo's Guide to Monsters|pages=31-33}} Licensed: &copy; Wizards of the Coast.</ref> Storm giants, the most powerful and majestic of giant-kind, are also the most aloof and the least understood. ''Uvarjotens'' aren't just forces of nature; they are bound to nature, and are extensions of it, in mystical ways that humans find hard to comprehend. {{otherlore|Very rarely, storm giants have violet skin. Violet-skinned storm giants have deep violet or blue-black hair with silvery gray or purple eyes. Adults are about 21 feet tall and weigh about 12,000 pounds. Storm giants can live to be 600 years old. Storm giants’ garb is usually a short, loose tunic belted at the waist, sandals or bare feet, and a headband. They wear a few pieces of simple but finely crafted jewelry, anklets (favored by barefoot giants), rings, or circlets being most common. They live quiet, reflective lives and spend their time musing about the world, composing and playing music, and tilling their land or gathering food.|{{SRD3ref}}|3.5e lore}}
