-

A creature with the giant subtype is oversized for its type. Giant creatures possess all traits and features of their base type, and are generally several times larger than their base creature counterparts, though not always. Some creatures use the Giant subtype to annotate their ancestry (such as the [[d20r:Half-Giant|Half-Giant race]]).

Some creatures use the Giant subtype to annotate their ancestry (such as the [[d20r:Half-Giant|Half-Giant race]]). Giants of Huge size or greater have access to the Crush special ability, described below:

+

'''Crush (Ex):''' This special attack allows a flying or jumping giant creature of at least Huge size to land on opponents as a standard action, using its whole body to crush them. Crush attacks are effective only against opponents three or more size categories smaller than the giant creature (though it can attempt normal overrun or grapple attacks against larger opponents).

+

A crush attack affects as many creatures as can fit under the giant creature's body. Creatures in the affected area must succeed on a Reflex save (DC 10 + 1/2 the giant creature's Hit Dice + its Constitution modifier) or be pinned, automatically taking bludgeoning damage during the next round unless the giant creature moves off them. If the giant creature chooses to maintain the pin, treat it as a normal grapple attack. Pinned opponents take damage from the crush each round if they don't escape.

+

A crush attack deals unarmed strike, slam, or grapple damage (whichever does the most damage) plus 1 and 1/2 times the giant creature's Strength bonus (round down).
