Complications:
Betrayal - The Giant scouts are servants of the Faerie Court and are sworn to protect them, laying down their lives if necessary. Having abandoned his post to run off with Buttercup to Earth, he has broken that oath.
Names Have Power In Magic - Using a person's full name is evidence of a level of personal knowledge, and knowledge is power. If a mage uses a person's given name in conjunction with a spell, it will have a stronger effect, depending on how intimate that knowledge is. This is why most magic-users keep their identities a closely-guarded secret. If the mage has read the full name somewhere (personal records, internet, etc.), the attack gains a +2 effect. If they have heard the full name spoken, they get a +5. And if they have heard the person speak the name from their own mouth, +10 effect is applied.
Truly Secret Identity - Because of their close ties to magic, fairies are given two names at birth: one that is shared with others (often representing something in nature), and one that is their true name, given at birth and only shared with the closest of loved ones.
Relationships - Granite loves his wife deeply and is willing to do anything to keep her safe. Likewise, he adores his daughter and regrets some of the decisions they felt they had to make in the past. His hope is that, now that the truth is out, their relationship can be rebuilt.
Secret - Granite has spent the past 30 years pretending to be a normal human male. He desperately fears what will happen if the world learned that he was really a giant from an alternate dimension.
Vulnerability - Giants have the reputed faerie weakness to iron and take +2 to the effect. This entails pure iron only, not objects that have been refined, like steel.

The Pixie Giants were created and designed by Neil Lindgren. Granite was designed by Jim Caswell. They are all NPCs.
