Hill Giant:
- Smashing Strike: Strike with incredible smashing power. When you make an attack roll with a Bludgeoning weapon, you can choose to deal an additional number of d6s of damage equal to your Strength or Constitution modifier. The target also must make a Strength Saving Throw against your Spell Save DC or be knocked prone.

All creatures within 10ft of the point must make a Dexterity Saving Throw against your Spell Save DC, taking a number of d8s of Lightning damage equal to your Charisma modifier on a fail or half as much on a success.

You may make these attacks a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus per day.

Giant’s Size

Starting at 14th level, you can grow to be larger, mimicking the giants. As an action, you can increase your size to Large, along with anything you are wearing or carrying for 1 hour. If there isn’t enough room for you to increase your size, your size doesn’t change. While large, you gain advantage on Strength Checks and Saving Throws and Intimidation checks, your reach increases by 5 feet.

You can reduce your size back to medium at any time during the duration, ending the effect.

You can do this once per short rest.
