The first frost giants were created by the primordial Piranoth. They came to Bal-Kriav and possibly other realms as soldiers carrying out the whims of their primordial masters. After the Creation War, most primordials were driven back to Chaos. Many of their minions and soldiers, like the frost giants, were left behind on worlds far from where they originated. In the God Era, the angels and gods tracked down and imprisoned most of the firebrands of these former minions and imprisoned them in places like Denerra.
Many frost giants worship Thyrm. Most of the frost giants of Bal-Kriav have bloodlines to the Thurfing Olvading. This army of frost giants was headed by Thyrm at the Second Battle of Regadnîn. In this battle, Thyrm was captured and convinced to serve the enemy. The frost giant army was scattered at the battle at Regadnîn. After learning of their leader's capture they broke-up into tribal factions and holed up in remote areas of the Elephant Backbone.
In the God Era, frost giant elementalists used shaping magic to turn water into ice. After a century, they were so skilled with ice magic that they fabricated galley-like ships almost entirely out of ice. The only non-ice parts of these galleys were the oars and sails. In this way, tribes left Straiden and re-settled in distant lands like Brucrumus.
The area of the realm with the greatest concentration of frost giants is Igas. Many of them are from a farway world, drawn through a rift, they become pieces of the Thrones War (751 - present).
