Malefacted Giant

Before a PC would make an action roll that would affect the Giant, they must make a Knowledge Reaction Roll. On a failure, the PC loses a Hope. On a success, the PC is permanently unaffected by this feature.

Spend a Fear to unleash a psychic scream. All targets within Close range must succeed on a Presence Reaction Roll or take 3d10 direct magic damage and mark a Stress .

Make a standard attack. On a success, mark a Stress to add a d8 to the damage roll. If the target marks HP from this attack, they have disadvantage on their next action roll.

Countdown ( Loop 1d4). When the Giant sees a hostile target for the first time, activate the countdown. It ticks down when a PC rolls with Fear. When it triggers, the Giant makes a standard attack against up to three targets within Close range. Targets the Giant succeeds against lose a Hope.

When a creature within Far range of the Giant critically succeeds on an action roll, the Giant clears all Stress.
