The Hook

An insane Giantess roams the nearby hills reshaping them to depict statues of local fauna. Sometimes she will find it a fun activity to walk into town and roll in the homes, like a child in flowers.

Inspiration to Draw on

See this content in the original post

In D&D lore Stone Giants tend to live underground inside of mountains. It is said that they can not fathom the world above ground. So much so that they compensate and their minds tell them that the unknown lands are a dream. Nothing is constant so thus is not real. This can make for a solid premise for giants that are exiled or giants looking to gain inspiration for their carvings. The kicker is if they spend too much time out side, they tend to go mad. They fully detach from reality and find no consequence in their actions. But how does one dispatch a crazed Stone Giant and even better how do they heal from their affliction?
