45 Goliath Names For Your Dungeons And Dragons Characters
Gallery
Goliath was a giant from the legendary story of David and Goliath.
In the online game Dungeons and Dragons, Goliaths belong to a nomadic tribe called humanoids. They live in the mountains of Toril.
Every Goliath is huge. They are taller than half-orcs and dragon-born.
They have extreme physical strength and their bodies look as if carved out from mountain stones. Their soul-spirit is the wind, and therefore they wander about in the mountains. Their life is a challenge as they live in the high mountains.
They aim to make a place for themselves in the tribe or else die. The lifespan of a Goliath is less than a hundred years.
Goliaths love to indulge in competition and always try as far as they can to outgrow their present skills. As a result, most of them die trying to take a position in the clan.
The Goliaths have a dark side, and that is their continuous struggle to improve their powers. Goliaths live in tribes of five or six families. Some major members of the tribe are the Chieftain, the Captain, the Dawncaller, and the Tent-mother.
Goliaths have three names, birth names given by parents, a nickname given to the tribal chief, and a clan name. We have provided a detailed list of Goliath names which are divided into subheadings for your help.
