| Giants These enormous humanoids are stereotyped as violent and evil, and most of them do live up to their reputation. In fact, the majority of giants counted themselves among Voldemort's supporters. Only very few seek out humans. |
| Half Giants These creatures are extremely rare. They count as humans in all respects, except for their enormous size. Rubeus Hagrid of Hogwarts is such a 1/2-giant, though, like others of his kind, keeps his heritage a secret, since most wizards strongly distrust and discriminate agaisnt them. |
