In first and second editions of RuneQuest, when the game was tied to Glorantha, giants were described as a surly and untrustworthy Chaostic race.

However in the famous Cradle scenario the PCs are expected to save a babe of this Chaos race - and there's no mention of the taint, iirc*.

So what happened? Are giants Chaotic or not? Or just some of them?

• Yes, I'm about to run the Cradle scenario. Yesterday we played Balastor's Barracks :)
