Monster Ecology: Goliath

Goliath are an ancient race of humanoids native to the high alpine terrain of the D&D worlds. Stoic, competitive, honourable, valorous and curious, the Goliath, while few in number, are nomadic explorers who can be found nearly anywhere. Few people truly know intimate details of the Goliath culture, or even how many there are, and fewer still have ever ventured into the brutal altitude of their homelands, because it is deadly to most lowland races.

I read in “Races of Stone” (If memories serves me), Goliaths are the product of Stone Giants and Earth Genasi. It doesn’t explain what they mean by “product of”, probably to allow DMs to come up with it. I enjoyed the lore behind their “Dawn Callers” Bard subclass.

One idea that I had is that male Goliaths are naturally hairless, while females have hair only on the top of the head, but female Goliaths are VERY proud of their hair (caring for it for hours, letting it grow long, making elaborate knots, etc), and male Goliaths find "weird" males growing long hair and having beards.

In my campaigns, I have High Ogres as a playable race. When my new players describe a Goliath, they prefer my High Ogres. High Ogres are, in a nutshell, tough-skinned martial-minded organized humans that are 2x human height, 10x human mass who use 2x giant-sized weapons (they are 8x mass and really slow for smaller folk) easily. Imagine if Ogres were a little taller (same mass, just a better build), organized, fascist-socialist, human-level smart and skilled. Ironically, this race tends to end wars with Dwarves in alliances, especially against giants and the Underdark. They are LN(g).

[@TheHornedKing]

I'm playing a goliath barbarian, but only saw this video just now. Didn't really know much about goliaths other than what the manuals tells me, but I didn't really look at that when I created my character. The reason I decided to play a goliath is not "I want to play a golaith", but because I wanted to create a character based on one from a series of novels that I liked, who happens to be a mighty warrior (and an evil warlord) who is described as "a giant of a man", and with a lot of emphasis on how big and muscular he is. And rather than having him be a really big human, I decided to make him a goliath, as the racial features seemed fitting. Now that I have watched this video though, I can see several aspects about my character that actually are quite fitting for a goliath, and I had no idea about it. I did have my character grow up amongst humans though, so his backstory could have him be this warrior that towered above everyone else, just like the character I based him on. That character, is The Horned King from The Chronicles of Prydain by Alexander Lloyd (my avatar is the Disney version, very different).

Not understanding the gender roles of lowlanders, or the roles just being different for the Goliath, outside of how it directly relates to the family. Goliath will hunt and eat what lowlanders would consider to be vermin (food is scarce in alpine environments, they are not fussy about what they eat), once a Goliath considers someone a friend, they are very open and frank when they talk to them, and will discuss very close and personal matters with little sense of reserve, those who they do not consider friends, they will be the exact opposite, and will be easily offended by any personal questions.
