Why are there no female Giants?

If I remember well, in Nordic mythology the giants reproduce with normal humans... what is kinda odd... and surely not something nice to see :sadvaultboy:

I remember an old quote in one of the books... I think...
"Once you go giant, you never go back!"

So the quests to kill the giants... Is that an ego-thing?

Are castles like sports-cars of that year... The Jarl has a big... castle...

I love the idea of the giants but they are terribly untapped. Looking forward to some mods fleshing them out hopefully :celebration:

One day, one of us will stumble across a Giant's kitchen, and then we will have the answer.

There used to be ent-wives, but they disappeared. Sad story.

Oh we are talking about giants? Same faith I suppose? :whistling:


So someone is abducting all the females from the giant races?

Sounds like this case could be... *puts on glasses*...huge. *YEEEEAAAAAAAAHH*

Anyone remember Jurassic Park.

How some frogs would rapidly change sixual orientation if the population was overcrowded with one gender.

This is excellent material for a DLC or Expansion!!!!

Yes, yes, yes!

Content for giants is right near the top of my wish list. Ah, to be a friend of the giants would be grand. Just some quest and stuff for them would be enough (they are sentient, sapient, they must have things they want done, protection etc).

Although my wild, wild, wild wish (I might try and Mod it myself) would be for some option of helping them forge a place in Skyrim. Maybe in connection with the Forsworn - imagine the Forsworn and giants, united fighting to take back Skyrim, the Dragonborn leading from the front...

There's no bathroom in Skyrim as well... hmm, odd.


There are latrines in some of the Bandit Hideouts, one of them even has stalls and books and whatnot. So apparently only bandits poop.

Seriously though, everything was obviously rushed to make the 11.11.11 thing, was a bad idea.

Thank goodness they are the slow producing type of fungus then, otherwise Nirn would have been overrun by now. Though it might be fun to have a giant growing in the garden.

This is why the giants are so grumpy. If their women folk would come back, they would settle down.

Create two different meshes...? Bethesda...? I lean more on the theory of the mammoths.

I just think that bethseda just didn't had time to include female giants in the game.

There is only one six and they deposit their young in those big hide bags of 'cheese'. It gives the embryos something nutritious to feed on until they are big enough to become ambulatory. O.O, yikes! I hope no one was actually taking those and eating 'em......ewww.

Bethesda added children to make the game more realistic.
The only problem is they're all the same color (if there are any black children in-game, I haven't seen them) and sound completely different from the advlts. Oh, and they're all human.

Seems as though they're a little shortsighted.. so yeah, I wouldn't expect multiple genders when it comes to animals, especially with Bethesda streamlining they're games.
