Ettin

Ettins are two-headed giants with a particularly nasty disposition toward other races.  They have greenish-brown hides, tusks, and never bathe, leaving them grimy and gray.  They typically stand the height of two men and weigh well over a ton.  They have no language of their own, but usually speak the local language.

Despite their lack of brainpower, ettins are clever and cunning foes in battle.  They prefer to ambush their victims rather than charge into a fight, but once engaged, they fight furiously to the death.

Like most giants, ettins are solitary creatures who primarily meet in groups to mate, although they have been known to band together against a common threat.  They live in fortified caves where they typically employ trained pets – and occasionally slaves and minions – to maintain and protect it.
