Ethereal Giants are creatures that loath wizards or supposed 'book' magic. Infact anyone found using it in their domains are a best thrown out (literally) or at worst just killed on site. They look like very tall Doppelgangers, but with more muscular and primitive statures. They have semi-glowing cyan skin that seems to shift very slowly. Ethereal Giants speak Giant and Common.
 
COMBAT
Ethereal Giants are misunderstood. People claim they intentionally kill for pleaure. Untrue, they just use any means necessary to cast out wizards from their domains. 
Ethereal Juant (Sp): An Ethereal Giant can cast ethereal juant as cast by an 11th level sorceror at will.
Detect Magic (Sp): An Ethereal Giant can cast detect magic as cast by an 11th level Sorceror. It has a range of 1,000 ft.
 
ETHEREAL GIANT SOCIETY
Ethereal Giants often traverse the ethereal and material planes to find magic items to smash or wizards to kill. Despite this, they leave sorcerors, druids, clerics and psions alone. They only hate wizards because they supposedly use 'fake' magic. They believe that magic should be cast from the heart, not from a book. 
 
ETHEREAL GIANT CHARACTERS
Most Ethereal Giants favor the Sorceror class. Very rarely do they take the Wizard class, and those who do are often outcasts.
