The giff are a large, powerfully muscled humanoid species with a vaguely hippopotamus-like head and thick hide.  They are very lawful, very organized, and very militaristic. Every giff has a military rank within giff society, and it is always included in introductions or formal discourse.  If a giff is given another rank by a non-giff organization, he will only use that rank within that group, but will retain his giff-rank when meeting other giff.    When together, the giff always organize themselves into squads, platoons, companies or even larger groups. The giff pride themselves on their combat skills, but their true love is guns.  The explosions, power, and sound of a bombard are what really excite them.  They love personal firearms, and will have at least one arquebus or flintlock pistol if they can get their hands on them.  They don't even fear misfires, given their thick hides.  They make excellent mercenaries, particularly if they are led by one of the brighter races, since theyare generally a little simple-minded and very unsubtle.  Most giff in the Known Spheres actually work as some form of mercenary, whether an actual soldier, a bodyguard, a shipboard marine, a siege engineer, etc.
