Ever notice how some npc's specifically War, the Black Knight Titan or Bossy Mc. Bossface are the only few known intelligent Titans that inhabit Gielinor? Do you suppose they came from the same home-world the humans resided in, in the distant past in lore?

I would imagine they were a higher caste of human sub-species with demi-god like powers, similar to the demon's caste system of Infernus.

Edit: Can this be moved to Lore Discussion? I made a mistake.

War is a hill giant, and supposedly the Black Knight Titan is also some kind of giant. A

Pretty sure War's species was never revealed. He's in the giant section of the official wiki, so it's certainly indicated, but hill giant specifically seems unconfirmed.

The black knight titan also is categorized with the giants, though him dropping regular bones is kinda weird in regards to that (not to mention that with so little lore connected to it, the giant tag on it could just be a relic in the old code with no real meaning outside of of the character being big).

And while bossy mcbossface uses a modified version of the black knight titan's graphics, they are categorized as a zombie and drop no bones to indicate size.

Altogether, there's little to indicate that these npc's share a plane of origin. Though if they do, it's unlikely to be the human home-plane of Teragard since it is still inhabited by humans nowadays.

Hill giant was definitely confirmed. People have mentioned in multiple times in Discord. I think it was around the time of War's Retreat being released, maybe a stream? A

I mean, it's not anywhere in his dialogue, examine, or wiki page (which lists his race as '?'). Not saying this is definitely an example of the Mandela effect, but I'm not seeing anything to confirm War's race.

According to this thread--quick-find code 341-342-990-66051607--as of 2018, War was only ever theorized to be a hill giant. Although someone fairly pointed out that Death calls War a B.F.G. (Big Friendly Giant).

Thematically it makes sense. Death is a human, a race associated with Saradomin. Famine is an aviansie, a race associated with Armadyl. Pestilence is a werewolf, a race associated with Zamorak. It would make sense if War was a giant, which is a race associated with Bandos.

It's possible he is a giant yeah, however War, Black Knight Titan, and Bossy all share the same large-human build that most summoning titans also have.

Most giants are also much larger than they are too. Hill giants are giant half-naked bumbling monkeys, Moss giants are the same, except they're made of trees, or shrubs, and fire giants share the same build, but don't nearly fumble around as much.

I theorize that there is a Titan race, that are related somewhat to humans/giants, as they are not only big and powerful, but more intelligent compared to other giant species.

Keep in mind that summoning familiars come from the spiritual realm, whose denizens manifest from the thoughts and beliefs of those on the material planes. As a result, they cannot be related to any races that arose on the material planes which humans certainly did and giants likely did.

In fact, given that the only the Ugthanatos, the camel warriors, are known to originate from the spiritual plane and also permanently reside in the material planes, I find it unlikely that War, the Black Knight Titan, and Bossy Mcbossface are related to summoning titans outside of the vague possibility that they or others like them inspired the beliefs that created the summoning titans.
