In order of scale...

Gnat Fairy:
Size: Average around 0.1 in./ 2.5 mm
Habitat: Various, Parasitic
Info: A Gnat Fairy is essentially a gnat-sized fairy which serves a similar purpose as a gnat, being a pest. As the tiniest sentient creature in this world, they're very much helpless on their own and depend on the other races for survival, buzzing around them and mooching off the food they collect. They can technically be scene as parasites as they can live on the larger races completely undetected and steal bites of their food. Since they're very tiny, most races don't even notice their presence, and the really large races are completely unaware such small creatures even exist since they cannot see, feel or hear them. Luckily since they're so tiny they hardly have any predators to watch out for! Not much nutrition in these guys.
Features/Powers: Dark skin, small insect-like antennas and also insect wings. Pupiless eyes that glow slightly.

Floral Fairy:
Size: Average around 1 inch. 10 times the height of a Gnat fairy.
Habitat: Forests, Gardens, anywhere thats green and has flowers.
Info: A Floral Fairy is a common fairy with a very maternalistic lifestyle and attitude. They obsess over taking care of flowers, making sure they grow up healthily by watering them, pollenating them, making clothes out of them, and even living/sleeping in them. They also have a tendancy to take in Gnat Fairies and take care of them as well... even if they're not remotely interested. But hey! Free food and water and stuff!
Features/Powers: They resemble tiny humans except they possess butterfly-like wings. They possess weak magical abilities that are only useful for taking care of plant life, like conjuring water.

Garden Naga:
Size: While standing up, they average around a 10 inches in height. 10 times the height of a Floral Fairy.
Habitat: Forests, Gardens, Deserts
Info: A tiny carnivorous Naga around the size of a normal snake. They prey on the tiny fairy races for food. Although they have a monster-like appearance, they're a bit too small to take seriously from a human's perspective.
Features/Powers: They have various tail patterns, other than the one in the picture and in turn various skin colors. All of their teeth are sharp since they're carnivores so mind their bite! Their saliva contains a toxin that causes smaller creatures to become sleepy... so they stop struggling and submit to their inevitable fate as a snack.

Naga:
Size: While standing up they average around 6 feet. 10 times the height of a Garden Naga. Same height as humans.
Habitat: Civilized settlements.
Info: A half-human half-snake creature that lives side by side with humans. They're very similar to humans except for the fact that they're carnivorous like their cousin Naga races. Normally they'll just eat normal meat that humans eat, but a Floral Fairy or Garden Naga may look apetizing if they see one.
Features/Powers: Sharp teeth like their cousins, so watch their bite. The human-sized variation of Nagas have rattles on their tails, which they can use in conjunction with a hypnotizing belly dance to distract tiny prey or weak-minded enemies. Or they can just use their rattles if they just feel like playing a catchy tune. All of them are naturally clever and have snake-like reflexes. They have a similar toxin as their smaller cousins but, just like before, it only works on smaller races.

Humans:
Size: Human Sized (5-7 feet) 10 times the height of a Garden naga. Same height as a common Naga.
Habitat: Civilized settlements.
Info: Humans. You should all know what these guys are like! =P
Features/Powers: Humans are one of the few races capable of magic. They lack the strength and size of larger races, so its made up for with magic prowess. They have to learn magic though. They aren't all born with the innate ability to do it without practice unlike another race that I shall mention later.

Giant:
Size: Average around 25 feet. 4 to 5 times the height of humans.
Habitat: Civilized settlements.
Info: The common giant, and also the smallest species of giant. They live side by side with humans and nagas. In a world where they're all outclassed by larger cousins, they depend on working together to have a place in the world. Giants are the brawn of the civilized races. When working together, the naga tend to be the ones who make up the plans, and use their dancing/rattles to distract their enemies, while the humans use their magic to dish out the hurt, while being protected by a giant.
Features/Powers: Brute strength and size is all they have and all they need. However they're a little outclasses in this department compared to their cousins which is why they cooperate with humans and naga, giving them access to magic (and other stuff) which is something the giant races cannot use giving them an upperhand in that respect.

Sea Giant:
Size: Average around 60 feet. 10 times the height of humans.
Habitat: Oceans, Seas, Seashores
Info: An aquatic species of giant that are mischief-makers. They have a tendancy to scare sailors by popping out of the ocean suddenly, or knocking on the bottom of boats to rock them around, or steering them in the wrong direction and then giggling at their misfortune from beneath the ocean waves. The internet trolls of the sea honestly. They're neutral towards the smaller races they don't hate them and they don't love them, they just like to toy around with them.
Features/Powers: Underwater breathing. They do rely on the ocean so they cannot leave it for long which is why you won't find them going any further away from the ocean than a beach shore.

Forest Naga:
Size: While standing up they average around 100 feet.
Habitat: Forests, Jungles
Info: A giant naga that lives in forests and jungles. They prey on travelers and jungle/forest wildlife. The one race that has humans/nagas on the menu. They don't seek out civilized settlements as the forest/jungle has plenty of food, but when traveling through the plentiful wooded areas, the human sized races have to keep their eyes towards the trees just in case they're being watched.
Features/Powers: They have green skin. Just like their cousins they have toxic saliva used to stop smaller prey from struggling and a mouth full of sharp teeth. They use their tails to hang down from trees and scoop up prey. They're cunning and manipulative and typically convince larger races to bring them humans/nagas to "play" with, aka eat.

Glacial Giant:
Size: Average around 200 feet, 2 times the height of Forest Nagas
Habitat: Snowy mountains peaks in palace-like homes constructed from ice.
Info: The only species of giants that are capable of magic. This gives them the idea that they are superior to their cousins making them innately stuck-up. They live in secluded areas away from the "inferior" races high in the snowy mountains. If they end up having to interact with another race they try to make it very clear that they think they're inferior to them and give them the cold shoulder.
Features/Powers: They have icy silver skin and have delicate builds generally. Since they can use magic, they don't use their physical strength much, leading to them to have very low pain tolerance. Ice/Frost Magic is used to freeze mountain wild life for food or freeze people they don't like.

Golden Giant:
Size: Average around 750 Feet, over twice the height of Glacial Giants
Habitat: Secluded Caves, Treasure Troves, Ruins, Desert Ruins
Info: A strange and rare species of giant that are obsessed with riches and treasure to match their golden physique. They spend most of their time in their caves admiring their treasure pile. No one knows where they got their treasure troves though. Did they collect the treasure themselves? Or perhaps they're artificial guardians put there to watch over the treasure? No one can say since they're so rare. They rarely leave their caves, but when they do have a tendancy capture humans/nagas/giants and ask them to polish their golden bodies. They often wear cages as necklaces, earings or jewelry in general to transport their captives back to their caves. While the idea of being kidnapped to polish a giant golden being may seem unnapealing, they fully intend to let you go after you finish their request. And they always give away a little treasure reward if you do a good job. A win win situation.
Features/Powers: Simply their size and golden phisique, which is hard much like real metal.

Obsidian Giant:
Size: Average around 1500 feet. 2 times the height of Golden Giant. (From a Gnat Fairy's eyes, they're over 100 miles tall.)
Habitat: Mountains, Caves, Canyons, anywhere that has plenty of rocks/stones and is far away from civilization.
Info: Obsidian giants are the largest species of giants and the largest creatures in this world. Despite being titanic in size they're extremely docile and shy and try to avoid civilization as much as possible for fear of hurting anyone. They aren't carnivorous and only diet off of rocks. In general really don't pose a threat to anyone. On the flipside no one's a threat to them either. They're fairly rare, but they live for ages. Since they're so docile and don't feel the need to worry about their safety, they don't care if anyone approaches them, touches them or climbs on them. You can do pretty much anything to them and they'll ignore you, BUT never insult an Obsidian Giant. Their shyness results in them being very sensitive. When you push these gentle giants too far they won't hesitiate the remind you who the biggest creature in the world is. In general though they want to be neutral and will only help a close friend and only hurt a very malicious enemy. They're down to earth and don't want to have to deal with the drama of civilization and predator VS prey. They'd rather chill on their mountain tops, snack on some rocks, and enjoy the view.
Features/Powers: They have tough grey skin and are highly resilient to pain. They all are naturally strong, even for their size. They're creative and have a knack for sculpting jewelry.
