Darius checked and was left speechless. As it turned out, Gunner benefited from 500 points from his Royal Half-Giant blood. Giants were a physical/melee race only, with no magic capability whatsoever.
It should stand to reason that they would be extremely resilient against physical attacks and weak to magic and soul attacks, but that was also untrue!
Since Gaia had handcrafted the Giants, why should she have designed them with such a obvious weakness in the first place?
No, the thing Gaia had done, had been to completely crush all magical capabilities in Giants and spread it over their skin, giving them insane magical defense in exchange for never being able to cast.
A fair trade.
Another 500 points of magical defense stemmed from the awakening of Earth's Guardian. Not every Giant had awoken this bloodline skill, and those who did were so powerful that even the Gods could not eliminate their race.
