Trunk Cleaver: In her coming of age ceremony Urvi was given an enchanted axe, Trunk Cleaver. Trunk Cleaver feels like it weights almost 10 tons for everyone else but for Urvi it's of normal weight and the axe changes its size with Urvi. Trunk Cleaver has an enhanced effect on wood and it cuts wood half as quickly as it normally would. Trunk Cleaver won't cut anyone Urvi doesn't want to cut.
Nature Sense: Urvi has the ability to sense changes within nature, such as the general well-being of the nature that surrounds her, when the vegetation near her need more water or more sun, what time of the year is the best one to start farming or when the crops are ready to be harvested, what area of a forest animals are more likely to gather around or when it is going to rain or shine. Urvi can access this power by meditating in nature for 15 or so minutes and concentrating, and the information she receives is like a gut feeling. It isn't always right or specific. To get specific information Urvi has to stay within nature for at least an hour, and when she does so Urvi can enter a trance in which she can transfer her consciousness to the plants and animals within 10 mile radius of her and see through them. The first plant or animal Urvi transfers her soul to has to be within one meter of her upon the transfer, and after this first transfer Urvi can move her consciousness to any plant or animal she can see from the position she is at that moment. Urvi can keep this up for 15 minutes at most, and after that her consciousness will be drawn back to her body. When Urvi is transferring her consciousness her body is completely exposed and vulnerable to external attacks.
Custom Size Charm: Urvi has a size charm that was gifted to her by a wizard. When Urvi has the charm on she can modify her height however she wants between 9ft to 28ft. All she has to do is touch her hand to the charm and think about the size she wants to be. This charm, however, doesn't change Urvi's weight, and no matter what size she is always as heavy as she is in her original size.
Companion: Urvi has a pet snow leopard named Spots, whose lifespan is tied to hers. Spots will live for as long as Urvi lives, and if she dies Spots will die too. Spots also has a size charm of his own, that makes him about the size of a lioness instead of his true size(around three to four times the size of a normal snow leopard).

Simple Language Charm(Hektuc)
Centuries ago, In the giant woods of Hektuc, a young half-giantess baby was once abandoned near a tribe of giants, and she was found there, gnawing on some plants and roots in order to stay alive. The giants took her to their shaman, who sensed a strange, unknown force in the child. But he also sensed the spirit of a giant, and thus the tribe took this young infant in. No one asked of her origins, for it did not matter. Their shaman said the forest and the sky bestowed her upon them, and they merely raised her as their own, as a proud giantess.
Urvi's early years went along as well as they could for a half-giant in a fairly primitive and competitive giant community. She didn't have the strength or size of the rest of the giant children, but Urvi has the same tenacity and determination and pride, and she proved her worth to the tribe via her quick wit, craftiness and compassion. The latter was a trait not often seen among the tribe, and the shaman who was mainly raising Urvi saw its importance. He was training Urvi to be the next shaman, for he thought the young girl had the means of leading their tribe into a new age of prosperity. Perhaps she could even unite the tribes scattered all across the great wilderness. The possibilities were endless with this small but powerful anomaly called Urvi.
When Urvi turned 15 she had her become of age rite, in which she had to spend a month alone in the wilderness, surviving off the land. Urvi was taken to the base of the mountain with just clothes on her back, and that was where she stayed during the following weeks. During her rite Urvi met her lifetime companion, snow leopard Spots, who she fought and defeated over a moose Urvi hunted. Afterwards Urvi befriended and trained Spots and taught him how to hunt for her. So when Urvi a month later returned to her tribe she was better fed than she was when she left.
This rite earned Urvi her enchanted weapon, the Trunk Cleaver, and the shaman of the tribe blessed Spots as Urvi's spirit animal and made it that their lives were connected. As long as Urvi lived so did Spots.
Urvi grew up to be a good and exemplary giant, she had odd grace about her that none of the other females in the tribe had. And despite her small size she was pursued by many of the men in the tribe. Unfortunately Urvi had no intention of entering a courtship of any kind, and thus she spent her days fighting. For it was tradition for their tribe that whoever beat the woman they desired in a fight of any kind would earn the right to try and win her affections. But though many of the men were stronger than Urvi none were clever enough, and she kept picking forms of combat that required more wits than brawn.
When Urvi turned 30 she was finally ready to become the new shaman of her tribe. At first Urvi did well, she read the signs of nature right and well and made sure the hunting grounds were prosperous and that the tribe's borders were respected. But just as the previous shaman had hoped Urvi soon got the thought of uniting all giant tribes. She could see all of their downfall in this state, separated and in conflict. They were a strong, proud people, and they would be even stronger together. And so Urvi set out to negotiate with the shamans of the other tribes, trying to find peace.
It took numerous years of talking, yelling, headshaking and even violence before Urvi got the other shamans on her side. But at last, just before Urvi was to turn 50, they all were united in opinion. The giants should all be of one tribe. And so it happened that the shamans and best hunters of each tribe searched for the best area to set up this new, very large camp. They found an excellent place in the heart of the forest, near the tallest mountain, and the united giants moved there and set up their new home. Things were bumpy at first, but after few years people got accustomed and life fell into place.
In her free time Urvi enjoyed exploring the forest and trying to find the best spots to connect with nature or just relax and play with Spots. And then came a time when Urvi encountered something she had never seen in the giant region. A human.
The giants knew of other species outside their home, but humans never dared to wander to their region where trees, animals and people were all huge. So seeing this strange creature made Urvi more curious than vary, like a giant usually would be. Humans usually weren't kind to giants and giants were dead set on returning the favour. All except Urvi.
Urvi approached the human, and after the initial scare the two got to know each other. The human man was Yker, and he had come to the giant region to investigate why everything there was so large. He was a wizard with interest in biology and geography. This greatly fascinated Urvi, and she said she would help Yker by bringing him samples and telling him about her home. But Urvi wasn't completely trusting, she never exposed any details of her people and made Yker promise that as long as he was doing his research he wouldn't leave the region. Urvi wanted to make sure there wasn't going to be an attack of any kind. Yker agreed, and so began the strangest friendship ever seen among the giants.
For almost a year Urvi and Yker worked together, studying the land and plants and magic of the giant region. They found out fascinating things, including the reason why everything there was massive. But unfortunately this friendship was also the downfall of them both. For Yker grew curious to see Urvi's home, and despite her warnings he wandered too far into the hunting area of the giants. A lone hunter, out to catch a hare or two, saw Yker and immediately captured him. Yker was taken to the village and Urvi was shocked to see her friend in a cage, looking all beaten up. She was furious, and immediately interfered. It was time for the other giants to be shocked, as Urvi freed Yker and spoke for him. This enraged them, how could their wise shaman protect a feeble intruder like this? And unfortunately, during the uproar one giant reached for Yker and grabbed him too violently, killing him. Urvi was greatly saddened and angered and in her rage she attacked said giant and beat them almost half to death. Urvi was imprisoned, and it was decided that she would be banished to the lands of the humans she so adored.
Urvi, after being cursed by the shamans, left the giant lands along with Spots and entered the human world outside of them. Everything was small, and soon Urvi came to notice that people were very afraid of her and Spots and were even hostile. So for many decades Urvi and Spots kept to themselves, living in forests and mountains and avoiding human society. But in the end she couldn't help but be drawn to people, and after finding a traveling merchant wizard who didn't run away from her Urvi had them craft a size altering charm for both her and Spots. She used the little money she had on that charm, so even though the charm couldn't make Urvi smaller than 9ft she was happy with what she had.
Urvi used all her skills to live, working as a merchant, a hunter and sword for hire, rain caller and various other things. Urvi slept under the sky, never stayed in one place too long and never set down roots, Spots as her only permanent companion. She couldn't afford to stop. Urvi was hesitant to call any one place home after she had violently lost one already, and at the end of the day Urvi considered herself a wanderer.
This lifestyle went on for decades, almost a century, before a peculiar incident happened. Urvi had been hired to look for a missing person, a young girl, near some old ruins. She headed there during dusk, venturing deep into the ruins of unknown origin, following Spots who in turn was following the girl's scent trail. And when the sun had nearly fallen below the horizon Urvi arrived at the very center of the ruins, and disappeared after setting her foot within the circle of stones in the middle of the room.
Urvi woke up in our dimension, in a mountain valley in Switzerland, with Spots by her side. She was disoriented and confused and stayed put for the first few hours, still thinking she was in her home dimension. But as Urvi began to move around she noticed small but clear differences in the nature around her, and Spots was clearly acting jumpy and on the edge. And when Urvi, in her full size no less, ran into some mountain climbers she became sure. These people looked very different with their strange clothes and technology. The mountain climbers run away on a snow mobile as fast as they could before Urvi could even ask them anything, and she didn't see a point in pursuing them and frightening them even more.
Urvi stayed in that valley for a week or so, meditating and investigating the place she landed in, but found nothing that would help her get back home. But before Urvi could leave the mountain valley on her own the scouts came to her. It turned out the mountain climbers had been able to get some video of her and had uploaded it into the internet, and although most people who saw the video thought it was fake the academy thought otherwise and came looking for Urvi and Spots. And they found her, and with the help of a language charm were able to explain to her about the dimension she was in and the Veil and Manta Carlos. Urvi agreed to go with these people, now intrigued to see what this world had to offer.
Once Urvi arrived on the island at the beginning of summer she took the job she could most easily get and earn money at, an arena fighter.
