The Giant whose real name is known only to Robert and the Little Man is a Mexican woman standing fully 6'8" in height and packing a powerful frame.

She is known for the massive revolvers she carries and the interesting way in which she helps the Little Man get into combat...

The Little Man is an Irish Midget. He is 3'6" tall and very, very loud. He adores wrestling and boxing and relishes any opportunity to brush up on his knife skills.
