a.k.a. Uvarjotens
Storm Giant Overview [1] [2]
[1] 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.
[1] 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.
[1] Storm giants recall the glory of ancient giant empires forged by the god Annam. They seek to restore what was lost when those empires fell.
[1] Storm giants communicate infrequently with others of their kind. They do so usually to compare signs and omens or engage in a rare courtship.
[2] 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.
