Here are the races and main characters found in Giants. Click on the pictures to enlarge them.
Meccaryns
Baz "Basil"
Baz (short for "Basil") is the leader of the group, the most intelligent of the lot and consequently always frustrated with the stupidity and ineptitude of his mates. However, he loves his mates like brothers and will do anything to protect them. The one thing he has in common with them is his love for a pint of good beer and the love of a nice beautiful woman. Unlike them however, he insists on tackling the job at hand before thinking of all the fun he's missing out on.
Tel
In his grating cockney voice, Tel often complains that he's unjustly branded as the complainer of the group. Of course, the irony of this situation always escapes him. That said, Tel is loyal to his fellow mates and will do whatever he can to protect them.
Reg
Reg is the technical maestro of the group. He can sometimes be shy, even to the point of being timid. However, this won't show up when he is really pissed off. You'll know when he is. Reg is also the womanizer of the bunch - more than anything, he's desperate to get to planet Majorca to sample a few of the beautiful Majorcan ladies delights ASAP.
Gordon And Bennett
These two Meccs share four things in common: They love their beer, they love their women, they love their holiday destination - Planet Majorca, and they are extremely dense in the head, but in a lovable way (even when they are engaged in some pseudo-intellectual conversations and argue the night away). Gordon and Bennett always seem to be together, inevitably causing trouble for their other mates.
Sea Reapers
Delphie

By far the youngest and most innocent of Sea Reapers, Delphie is also Queen Sappho's daughter. She doesn't approve of the other Sea Reaper's severe methods, but she doesn't know any other alternatives. One thing she is certain of however, is that she must help put an end to her mother's evil reign of terror. To do this, she must learn about her powers, refining and increasing her powers with her famed tutor's help - Yan, the Samurai Smartie. |
Queen Sappho

When Kabuto turned on the Sea Reapers, many were killed; the survivors of the onslaught who fled to the oceans were demoralized. They became increasingly embittered and angry. Sappho was easily the most powerful and cruel of the Reapers, so it was only right that she be proclaimed Reaper Queen. Her primary goal is to return the Sea Reapers to their former glory. She had intended for her daughter, Delphie, to become a powerful ally in her cause. However, since Delphie has allied herself with the Meccs, Sappho finds herself forced to show them exactly how powerful and cruel she can be. |
Smarties
Timmy

|
Timmy is Borjoyzee's grandson, and will act as your guide and helper throughout the earlier parts of the game. He can be pretty annoying, but he will be the one who'll supply you with your jetpack and your RPG gun which he took from the "other spaceman", which will be revealed to be Tel later. |
Borjoyzee

|
Borjoyzee is Timmy's grandfather, and will pick up where Timmy left off as the Meccs' guide. Most of the time however, he is found resting his laurels under a tree while the Meccs do all the manual labor. Like Yan, if he is captured during base building, the Meccs would have loss. |
Yan - The Samurai Smartie

|
Yan is Delphie's famed tutor in the early parts of the game, giving her the ability to "Turbo" as well as casting various powerful spells. Later on, he'll act as her guide to Queen Sappho's Secret Palace, ultimately helping her to defeat Queen Sappho. In a way at least. Like Borjoyzee, if Yan is captured during base building, Delphie would have loss. |
