"He follows those who wage war for the Dark Gods -- their killing fields are his feeding grounds."
- —Description of a Norscan Giant in Total War: Warhammer.[1]
Norscan Giants are a type of Chaos Giant native to the frozen wastes of Norsca.
Role[]
Giants are monstrous humanoids with a prodigious appetite for violence. They are single-minded engines of destruction most often encountered in the far north of the Known World, being fond of the cold, rocky climes. Many find themselves lumbering alongside the warring Northmen tribes, either for their fill of fresh meat and strong alcohol, or simply for the promise of slaughter and battle.
Many Giants of the north are instinctively drawn to the raiding Men who seek to bear the favour of the Dark Gods -- perhaps because the corpses are always thick on the ground in the company of such individuals. Smashing into enemy ranks to kill and feed, they have no real concept of obeying orders but, rather importantly, do have the intelligence to recognise friend from foe.[1]
