About this item

The Bigby Presents: Glory of the Giants (Alternate Cover) is a premium, limited-edition version of the giant-themed sourcebook. Released alongside the standard edition on August 15, 2023, this version was produced specifically for local hobby shops and features a distinct artistic direction that makes it a centerpiece for any collection. D&D 5E: Bigby Presents: Glory of the Giants is a deep-dive sourcebook released on August 15, 2023 , that serves as a companion piece to Fizban’s Treasury of Dragons . Narrated by the legendary wizard Bigby and the giant demigod Diancastra, this 192-page book explores the complex hierarchy, religion, and magic of giants across the multiverse. While released just before the 2024 Core Rulebooks, it was designed with "forward compatibility" in mind, specifically aligning its new feats and backgrounds with the 2024 design philosophy. For your "Whispering Dark" campaign, this book is an invaluable resource for populating the rugged wilderness of the Sword Coast. More than a third of the book is a dedicated Giant Bestiary , featuring over 70 new monsters , including the horrifying Death Giants and powerful Scions of Giant Gods . It also provides DMs with detailed lair maps and "Enclave" locations, making it easy to build high-stakes encounters where the environment is just as dangerous as the massive foes dwelling within. Player Options & Content: While the book is DM-heavy, it provides several "larger-than-life" options for players looking to tap into ancient power. Path of the Giant Barbarian: The sole new subclass, allowing Bararians to grow to Large or Huge size when they rage and infuse their weapons with elemental energy. Giant-Themed Origins: Two new backgrounds, Giant Foundling and Rune Carver, which grant specialized "Origin Feats" that fit the 2024 character creation style. 8 New Feats: Includes the Strike of the Giants feat tree, allowing martial characters to unleash frost, fire, or cloud-based effects with their attacks. 30+…
