Barbarian - Path of the Titan
Some Barbarians draw their Rage from their ancestry. Those who walk the Path of the Titan fuel their Rage with the giant blood that flows in their veins. While some Titanic warriors are direct descendants of giants, some are unaware of their heritage until it manifests with their Rage. Unusually tall or strong for their race, mortals with giant blood in their veins are fairly obvious once you know the signs to look for.

- Your melee and thrown weapon attacks deal bonus damage depending on your current size: Medium (1d4), Large (1d6), Huge (1d12), and Gargantuan (2d12).

Awakened Bloodline
6th-level Path of the Titan feature
The power of your blood is apparent at all times. You gain the features below that correspond to your Giant Bloodline:
Hill Giant
Your body has grown strangely resilient. You have advantage on Constitution saving throws, and when you take damage while Raging, you can use a reaction to reduce the damage you take by your Constitution modifier (minimum of 1).
Stone Giant
You have become thoughtful. You gain proficiency in Insight, and whenever you make a Wisdom (Insight) check you treat a roll of 7 or lower on the d20 as an 8. Moreover, whenever you make a Wisdom saving throw while Raging, you gain a bonus to your roll equal to your Constitution modifier.
Frost Giant
You become especially savage in battle. When you hit a target with a weapon attack, you deal a bonus 1d6 cold damage on hit. If you deal cold damage to a creature while Raging, its speed is reduced by 10 feet until the start of your next turn.
Fire Giant
You have become vindictive and cruel. While you are wearing armor you can use your Constitution, in place of Dexterity, to calculate your Armor Class. Also, when you are hit by a melee attack while Raging, you can use a reaction to deal fire damage to the attacker equal to your Constitution modifier.
Cloud Giant
You have become more whimsical and lighthearted. You gain resistance to falling damage, and while you are Raging, you can take the Dash or Disengage action as a bonus action.
Storm Giant
You have grown in pride and presence. You gain a swimming speed equal to your walking speed, and you can breathe both air and water. Moreover, while you are Raging, you can cause any thrown weapon attacks you make to deal lighting damage in place of the normal damage for that weapon.
Titanic Vitality
10th-level Path of the Titan feature
Truly embracing the titanic blood within you, you permanently grow one size larger. Your Rage draws out an ever-increasing amount of resilience from the power that flows in your blood. When you Rage, you gain temporary hit points equal to your Barbarian level.
Titanic Wrath
14th-level Path of the Titan feature
You gain features resembling your type of giant and join among their ranks in the Ordning, the social structure of hierarchy among giants. You can speak, read and write Giant. Giants of your type consider you one of their own and are friendly towards you unless provoked.
Additionally, you can strike with the power of a true giant. When you take the Attack action while Raging, you can focus all your power into one strike. You make one attack for this action, even if you have a feature that lets you make more. On hit, it becomes a critical hit, regardless of your attack roll.
You can use this ability a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of once) and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Lastly, your hit point maximum grows with an amount equal to your Barbarian level.
