Giants

Giants are a race from the island of Elbaf.

Appearance
Being giants, they are literally Giant humans in appearance. They are based on Vikings in both design and beliefs.

They are not to be confused with humans affected by Giantism such as the Franky Family's Mighty Destroyers. To a giant, those humans with Giantism are no more then "oversized ants."
