Dragon Magazine #345 : Demonomicon of Iggwilv: Kostchtchie by James Jacobs Discover a rage powerful enough to bow even the heads of giants: Kostchtchie, Prince of Wrath. Learn about the cults, minions, and terrible creatures that serve his anger.
Kostchtchie's Cult Kostchtchie's cult consists primarily of tribes of frost giants, although it's not unusual to see tribes of humanoid or ogre barbarians venerating him as well. Worship of Kostchtchie consumes an entire tribe, leaving no room for alternative beliefs—such heretics are rooted out and slaughtered as quickly as they can be discovered. Kostchtchie himself (and by extension his frost giant cultists) tend's to view his humanoid and ogre followers as little more than tools or slaves. There's little room for diplomacy or subtlety in the teachings of the Prince of Wrath. His cultists lay claim to vast territories, dominating all neighboring tribes and putting those who don't pledge their souls to Kostchtchie to the axe.
The Giants of Xen'drik by Jason Bulmahn and Amber Scott Savage drow and stone-hearted giants war in the depths of Eberron's dark continent. A glimpse of the upcoming release, Secrets of Xen'drik.

Giant-Tooth Arrow The drow take teeth from their fallen enemies to craft these blunt-tipped arrows. Sszaral, the drow chieftain, made his arrows from teeth of the sacred skulls.

Excursion by Martin Ralya Leave your horse behind and travel the world by ship, caravan, submersible, or even airship. Four transports, fully detailed including a map, adventure hooks, and information about the captain and crew. The following sample is from the Kraken's Bane, a mysterious submersible.
Kraken's Bane The crew of the Kraken's Bane is a grim lot, cowed by the formidable shadow of Captain Zagiir. Two new crewmen and two veterans man the ship with tireless precision, as the captain has no patience for incompetence. The crew willingly tolerates Zagiir's turbulent temper, though, as each is exceptionally well paid. Questions such as where this gold comes from and what happened to the ship's former crewmembers remain unanswered—or at least, anyone in the know proves unwilling to speak of such things.
Sea Serpents by Morgan Peer and Tracey Peer Three new dragons of the briny depths, including the crested, lantern, and spiked sea serpent.
