The [[gigantes]]' less popular dark blue cousin, the cyclops can't quite match up to its contemporary but is still strong in its own right. Originally depicted as a weaponless dolt, this juggernaut brings more brawn than brains to the battlefield.
The [[gigantes]]' less popular dark blue cousin, the cyclops can't quite match up to its contemporary but is still strong in its own right. The cyclops's singular eye has a red iris, setting it apart from its lighter blue cousin, as well. Originally depicted as a weaponless dolt, this juggernaut brings more brawn than brains to the battlefield. The giants wear simple tunics made from roughspun brown cloth that only cover their right shoulders and a brown leather belt around their waists.
