Female Giants?

Maybe the hagravens are the female giants.... since there's no male hagravens.

Definitely not. :P

Giants are afraid of water. I'm sure that plays into this somehow...

Well, I think I should bring up some Norse Mythology.

At the Dawn of the world, there were two lands. A land of Fire, and a land of Ice. Between these lands there was a great hole, Ginnunagap.
In this hole, the world was created. There lived a cow there, called Audhumla.
The cow was licking on the salty stone on the bottom and revealed the body of a man buried in stone.
This man was a Giant, named Yme.
Yme lived down in this hole, living of the milk of Audhumla.

One day, Yme fell asleep. And guess what? His feet decided to mate. From his legs there was born a woman (I think, long since I read up on this) who was a Jotun. (A kind of troll)
His arms mated, and got a son, this one a man.
The man and the Jotun got three sons. Odin, and his two brother I don't remember the name of.
Meanwhile Yme's body had gotten more children and there was many Jotuns now.

Odin and his brothers wanted to see the world adn fought against Yme, killing him and creating the world out of his body. (blood became water, his bones the mountains, his brains the clouds and so on)

Basically, according to Norse mythology Giants can reproduce with themselves.
I know this isn't Vikings, but the Nords are inspired.

Everything in this game is A-sixual, no one has genitals, that is bethesdas view. That is why when you kill a bandit male and he dies with is crotch in the air, there is nothing there, skin, but nothing there.

You know it just occurred to me maybe they aren't the advlts we are killing, maybe they are the sons out doing their choirs and one day the parents are going to come out of their holes to see where they are and then all heck is going to break loose

If they introduce females, will they be topless too? :biggrin:

Oh no, nudity is a big no no in these games isn`t it? :touched:

Guess it`s off to Mod land then... And not steam mod land either.

Not sure about how giants reproduce, but I have a feeling mammoths come from giants and trolls...

Imagine they're a bit like the female dwarves in the discworld books. Indistinguishable from the males. Even down to the beards.

Okay then explain this... I'm starting to work on archery. I shoot the Falmer in the eye and do diddly damage. Then next shoot the Falmer in the crotch and he's dead.

Giants are annoying enough at the best of times...I'd hate to have to deal with ones that either harp at me or are having a 'change of life'.

Maybe it is like dwarves from lord of the rings. The dwarves all look like males but like gimli said there is no way to tell the difference. They all have beards guts and helmets.

Daedra do not reproduce sixually so gender is unecessary, in Dremora, Golden Saints or Dark Seducers. By that same token Spriggans are nature spirits they don't need males. There is nothing to indicate the gender of Trolls either.
Quite right, The point I was trying to make was not seen aparently. I was suggesting that Bethesda and TES games have a history of either a suggested one type six for a creature for the most part, or that it is indistiguishable in general. Come to think of it I can't think of any case where there is a creature of both sixes present in any TES game. In regards to Daedra reproduction I did not suggest they did, however in the CS you can see Bethesda incorperated female dremora. I agree that there is nothing indicating six of a troll. They however seem to me masculin and would not suprise me to find that out.
