One-headed cyclops-ogres in World Of Warcraft seem to always be bosses or at least quest mobs. And just about every earth invasion in Rift will have you fighting cyclopes.

* Cyclopes in ''{{Rift}}'' seem to be denizens of the Plane of Earth. They're built along the same large and solid lines as [[ProudWarriorRace bahmi]] (although they tend to be even taller), but have ivory-yellow skin, vaguely bestial features, and the definitive single, centrally-positioned eye.

* OIn Warhammer40000 the [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking Primarch]] of the [[CosmicPlaything Thousand Sons]] was [[AntiVillain Magnus the Red]], whose defining features were [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin coppery red skin]], [[MeaningfulName being a giant]] and having just one eye. However, it is no longer known for certain wether he was a Cyclops, [[EyelessFace had only one orbit]] or [[BoringButPracticalsimply lacked one eye]]. However, now that he is a [[OneWingedAngel Demon Prince]] of [[LovecraftianSuperpower Tzeentch]], it is probably quite hard to say if this still applies or if it is something special.

It should be noted that Cyclops basically means circle-eye or wheel-eye, referring to its size. Therefore Cyclopean means huge, and not one-eyed (not to mention Cyclops themselves were giants).

to:

It should be noted that Cyclops basically means circle-eye more accurately translates to "circle-eye" or wheel-eye, "wheel-eye", referring to its size. Therefore Cyclopean ''technically'' means huge, and not one-eyed (not to mention Cyclops themselves were giants).
