The titans are giant, powerful creatures that were worshiped as gods by Khemet and the Aquarian Empire.
A race that was old when the world was young, titans are very near to the divine. This nearness inspired bitterness in the hearts of the mightiest titans, and when they grew jealous of the adulation the gods received from mortals,
Titans are primordial creatures of near-godlike power who predate the mortal races. They created the gigas, who in turn spawned the first giants. Few titans exist these days. Some believe that humans were not the creation of the gods, but instead are direct descendants of the giants of old, making the titans their ultimate progenitors

History
The verse Titans were personifications of The Pillars of Creation. Older than the formation of the Plains themselves.
They were worshiped by the aquariums. Though Tremaine swore to be their enemy
They tried to prevent the moonfall which they knew would awaken the Gods.
The Civil War was caused by half of the Titans wishing to destroy the Pillars of Creation in order to recreate the world as qlippoth, While others sought to merely rule the world that already was. Freedom vs destruction.
When the gods emerged, the Titans had a civil war. Those who won became the Elysian Titans and those who lost became the thanatotic Titans.

Types
Danava titans
Danavas are the eldest and first of the great outsiders collectively known as titans. Conceived originally at the foundation of reality to govern and regulate the mercurial forces that shaped the cosmos, danavas ultimately proved too harsh, too rigid, and too unflinching for their mission.
Danavas resemble thick—even rotund—but extremely muscular humans of incredible size. Reaching heights of 75 to 100 feet, danavas can weigh up to 200 tons. Their ancient ornamentations cover most of their red-brown skin, and their helmets always reveal their wagon-wheelsized, pupilless eyes.
Danavas see the absolutes of the universe and rarely appreciate complexity or nuance. While danavas are usually lawful neutral, some lawful good and lawful evil danavas do exist. Lawful good danavas endeavor to cause the minimum necessary destruction to achieve their goals.
Elysian titans
Lone Elysian titans often wander the planes, seeking enlightenment or exploring ancient places of power. Others still have the crusading impulse of the ancient war and can be found manipulating events from behind the scenes, training aspiring heroes, counseling kings, marshaling armies to overthrow tyranny, and inspiring mortals to become legends. A titan does not age—unless slain by violence, a titan is immortal.
Hekatonkheire titans
Horrifying abominations shunned by the gods immediately upon their creation, the hekatonkheires are perhaps the most powerful and devastating race of titans in existence. When the titans rebelled against the deities, the hekatonkheires joined them against their creators, weary of the scorn the gods felt for them.
The gods initially created only three hekatonkheires, seeking to make the ultimate warriors in order to guard the gates to the Abyss.
They are warped engines of mayhem, their existence based wholly on the devastation of life and anything that might remind them of their age-old war against the gods, having inherited only the haunting ghosts of such memories.
The hekatonkheires were created to destroy, and so that is all they desire to do; the crushing blows of their fists and the goring slashes of their weapons speak for themselves. They serve no master, and halt their otherwise endless rampage only if called by their true names, which few—if any—mortals know. Those that do know these names speak them only in whispers, for their mere utterance seems to carry with it immeasurable power.
Each hekatonkheires has 50 heads and 100 arms so that one is never caught off guard. The stones that it hurls with its 100 hands are as big as boulders, and those who have seen a hekatonkheires hurl such rocks and lived to tell the tale have said that it is as though an entire mountain is falling from the sky. In addition to their unworldly strength, hekatonkheires are known for their awesome control over the powers of lightning and thunder, and an individual hekatonkheires’s arrival is often prefaced by an abrupt and tumultuous storm in the area. Like all titans, hekatonkheires are immortal, and do not die unless they are slain.
Thanatotic titans
After they were betrayed to the gods by their own kin, the Thanatotic titans were banished into the Malihedron. Today, they seethe with jealousy that their Elysian kin are allowed to wander the planes at will, while they can only reach out with their will under extreme effort. Now, these powerful outsiders spend much of their time brooding, fighting among themselves and planning their escape.
Thanatotic titans see themselves as the true icons worthy of worship. Some work to found personal cults among mortals, while others simply wage unending crusades against the minions of the gods.
