Combat
Rock Catching (Ex): A giant of at least Large size can catch Small, Medium-size, or Large rocks (or projectiles of similar shape). Once per round, a giant that would normally be hit by a rock can make a Reflex save to catch it as a free action. The DC is 15 for a Small rock, 20 for a Medium-size one, and 25 for a Large one. (If the projectile has a magical bonus to attack, the DC increases by that amount.) The giant must be ready for and aware of the attack.
Spell-Like Abilities: Once per day a storm giant can call lightning as a 15th-level druid and use chain lighting as a 15th-level sorcerer. Twice per day a storm giant can control weather as a 20th-level druid and levitate as a 20th-level sorcerer. Save DC is 12 + spell level.
Freedom of Movement (Su): Storm giants continuously have freedom of movement as the spell.
Water Breathing (Ex): Storm giants can breathe underwater indefinitely and can freely use their spell-like abilities while submerged.
Skills and Feats: Storm giants have EHD as though they were large creatures. Storm giants ignore all weight penalties for gear carried when swimming.
