Changes: Giants (King's Quest)

Revision as of 22:55, 23 December 2019

Giants are a race of very large humans or humanoids and a species in the King's Quest video game series.

Giants are very strong humans, although there are reports of giants that are merely humanoid, resembling humans. Giants are massive beings, the smallest of whom are over ten feet tall, and the largest big enough to have their heads touch the clouds.

An angry Giant lived on Harlin's Island north of Serenia. He liked harp music. He blocked the Wanderer's way to Harlin's castle. The Wander had to play a Harp for him (the game cannot progress until the Wanderer makes the stubborn giant happy). The giant thanked the wanderer and left with the harp.

Another Giant lived in the land of the clouds. Dahlia gave the Chest of Gold to the giant for safekeeping. When Graham encountered the giant, he had been holding the chest for longer than he could remember. Wanderer's task is to take Chest of Gold from this less-than-willing giant to progress.

The Ogre and the Ogress are from a race of ogre giants. While Ogress is a decent giantess, Ogre is quite a nasty character. Those traveling through Tamir must avoid him at all costs. He does nothing to help others, and his dog is dangerous to those who might try to enter their house. It is suggested that people be "beware of the dog".

Avoid or give them what they want, they will be content. Upsetting them is extremely unwise.

 '''Giants''' are a race of very large humans or humanoids and a species in the ''King's Quest'' video game series.
-Giants are very large and very strong humans, although there are reports of giants that are merely humanoid, resembling humans. Jack the Giant Killer, for instance fought giants with two and three heads, for instance — hardly what would think normal for humans. In London, effigies have been constructed to the giants Gog and Magog. The Bible speaks of giants walking the earth in the distant past. In fact, the most famous giant in western culture is Goliath, who fought for the Phillistines against King Saul of Israel. No warrior dared fight the giant in single combat except for the boy David. David killed Goliath by striking him on the head with a stone shot from his sling. David kept Goliath's sword and used it later when he fought Saul. Giants are massive beings, the smallest of whom are over ten feet tall, and the largest big enough to have their heads touch the clouds.
