This idea actually sprang from a thread that got started recently. But its more of a ripoff of the game 'arcanum'.
Mad wizard (arent they all) plots world domination via his enforced breeding project of giants and humans, making a halfgiant that is more obediant and brighter than a giant, and less morally encumbered than a human. Also, obviously I guess, much stronger than the average human.
I didnt really flesh the idea out any further than that, but it might be good for a single, one day quest, to find the lair, stop the halfgiant horde and the wizard.

Or just... Giants. Y'know.

Stop them? Why not go take over!?!
GUNTHER!! ROAR! I miss you man, hope to see you in game.

I cant envision too many giants being all that comfortable with a human/elvish/gnomish/whatever wizard for their leader. They dont seem that sociable. Or bright enough to be sociable and amenable to such leadership. I think they'd constantly plot aganst someone of such a puny stature. Even if constantly cowed and suppressed, they'd probably plot.
I tend to think halfgiants would be more susceptible to a reasoned approach, especially if there was material gain involved.
But then giants could work too, just not quite as twisted and mysterious. I like the concept of..."hey! Where are all these halfgiant raiders coming from." Especially if they are a disciplined, cohesive fighting unit, rather than run of the mill bandits.
