Howdah. The fire giant carries a compact fort on its back. Up to four Medium creatures can ride in the fort without squeezing. Creatures in the fort are 15 feet from the ground, out of range of melee weapons. Creatures in the fort have three-quarters cover against attacks and effects from outside it. If the fire giant dies, creatures in the fort are placed in unoccupied spaces within 5 feet of the fire giant.
