      I think the difference would be Tactician and Generals. While in our societyy both are merged, the first is good a organising a campaign, prepare new strategy for the army and dispatch ressources accordingly while the other is good at comanding the troops on the batlefield, reading ennemy movements and strategies, keeping men in control and seize opportunity.

    Fun additional scary facts about giants.
    Storm giants: whenever they are nearing the end of their life and don't wanna die, they go full druid and become an immortal living storm, surround whatever place they do this shit in for the rest of time until they are slain. How do you kill a literal living storm? No idea.
    Hill giants: oh yea if one of them gets so sick that they keep throwing up, they actually lock the giant away and starve them until he gets better. This leads to most the time rampage as remember food is a hill giants religion literally.
    Frost giants: Ever wonder what some storm giants do to bulk up and become chieftain? Well one forbidden and taboo way is to go abandon Thyrm as your lord and savior, worship troll god, go out and slay a troll, then consume its carcass to gain its regenerative powers. The fucked thing here is that they may develop vestigial body parts such as extra heads, a tail, arms, legs, nipples, etc etc due to frost giants biology not suppose to be like a troll. When they are finally figure out they are thrown out the clan because weakness reasons and they just wander around fucking up everything in pure rage.
    Stone giants: my favorite fucking thing about stone giants is canonically they are overpowered as fuck. You know how they call the world outside their cave "Land of dreams" and shit? Well stone giants are lucid dreamers. Translation: they literally start to bend reality, the laws of nature, gravity, etc etc if they spend long enough outside their underground cave home. To them the world is literally a dream, meaning to them that they can do whatever they want so normally its common to see a chaotic fuck off stone giant turning a boat into a war ship and chucking that bitch at an adventuring group for the lolz.
