Firbolg
Shepherds of the forest, hidden guardians of the woodland. I was lucky to be able to encounter one during my travels, though I feel that this was because he decided to reveal himself.
He was very secretive and shy, and didn't answer many of my questions. What he did reveal is documented here.

Basic Information
Genetics and Reproduction
NOBODY JUST POPS INTO EXISTENCE! SERIOUSLY!... Presumably they breed like everyone else.
Additional Information
Symbiotic and Parasitic organisms
Firbolg have a symbiotic relationship with nature. They protect each other in a way that I haven't seen before, even among wood elves.
Civilization and Culture
Naming Traditions
Apparently Firbolg, like goliaths have more than one name. They usually only give one easy to say name to people other than firbolgs.
