Bakkijotunn
- The Coastal Giants
Located along the Western half of Haafingar's northern coast, the Bakkijotunn are the most reclusive of Western Skyrim's Giants. Having no mammoths, nor any good terrain for grazing mammals, these Giants survive by feasting on the surprisingly dense population of horkers that thrive along the shores.
This Giant clan is also very closely related to the Fellstrondjotunn who dwell at the Eastern end of the coastline, and may have once been part of the same tribe. One piece of evidence supporting this theory is the fact that both of these Giant clans make sacrifices to the sea by putting the corpse of a horker on a raft and setting it ablaze. The Giants do these to appease Marrune, a fearsome deity who's held responsible for the devastating winter storms and frigid winds that wrack Haafingar's coasts.
The Bakkijotunn are currently torn into two parties, ever since their old chieftain was slain during the Sea Giant invasion a couple years ago. Oztar is the current chief, but his influence is turning out to be too weak to solidly hold the clan together. Oztar's younger brother, Thelzun, has been trying to convince the clan to leave these lands and rejoin with the Fellstrond, but himself remains reluctant to leave his brother behind. (Fanon)
