Oh wow this is hilarious! Awesome idea lol. If you want to I'd gladly offer Gashad up as an old acquaintance. He's got this rumor (true, of course) of being bat shit crazy and evil and a bit of a nightmare legend, and he loves messing about with people to ease his boredom. He's undead too, and a giant. 8D
Anyway, it'd be amusing if these tiny little things were swarming around him, because even if he tried to squish you he'd likely be too slow. Kinda like Smaug to your Bilbo x3
I wouldn't call them friends, exactly, but acquaintances that love ticking the other off?
