Against the Giants

d8Adventure Hook
1Adventurers find a village completely deserted, with tracks leading to a hill giant steading. Can they rescue the surviving villagers and livestock before the hill giants eat them all?
2A family of stone giants fell under the sway of Lolth and allied with Lolth-worshiping drow to raid the surface. Adventurers must break the alliance or eliminate the stone giants if necessary.
3An especially harsh winter is accompanied by roving bands of frost giants and winter wolves preying on travelers.
4Fire giants send hell hounds into mine tunnels to chase the miners out, then send their own azer servants to plunder the mineral-rich mines. The miners seek help to reclaim their mines.
5A clever cloud giant plays several other powerful creatures against each other and against nearby Humanoids. Eliminating the giant will return the volatile situation to an uneasy status quo.
6A frost giant leads a mixed band of weaker giants in a campaign of bloodlust to honor Thrym or a demon lord.
7After a villainous group slays a young storm giant, the giant's parent unleashes an undiscriminating campaign of vengeance against any "interfering little gnats" living nearby.
8As characters explore a steading belonging to one kind of giant (you can roll a d6 on this table to decide why the characters are there), they discover an honored guest of a more powerful giant kind who is coordinating the weaker giants' activities.
