Frost giants are remorseless marauders who pillage and plunder from those who dare to live near them in desolate, frigid lands.

Chill Breath (cold, primal) — The frost giant breathes out a 15-foot cone{15-foot cone} of freezing moisture that quickly condenses into ice, dealing 7d6 cold damage. Each creature in the cone must attempt a DC 36 Reflex save.
A creature that fails its save is also Immobilized and takes 2d6 cold damage at the end of each of its turns until it gets free (Escape).
The giant can't use Chill Breath again for 1d4 rounds.

Ice Stride — A frost giant isn't impeded by difficult terrain caused by snow or ice, nor does it need to attempt Acrobatics checks to keep from falling on slippery ice.
Throw Rock — The monster picks up a rock within reach or retrieves a stowed rock and throws it, making a ranged Strike.
Wide Swing — The frost giant makes a single greataxe Strike and compares the attack roll result to the ACs of up to two foes within its reach. This counts as two attacks for the frost giant's multiple attack penalty.
