Troll

^{Home > Rulebook > Races > Troll}
Trolls are bulky, tall creatures that are widely feared for their regenerative capabilities. Living in small tribes amongst others, they are incredibly capable hunters that can survive fighting even the strongest of creatures. Highly sought after for their strengths and powers, these unstoppable killing machines are actually more passive and humble, focusing on living on the land, despite their more grotesque appearance.

Characteristics

Trolls have characteristically pointed ears that droop downwards, with a more furrier face, similar to that of an ape, and a pointed nose, with big, bushy eyebrows, and a relatively chiselled jaw. They have large hands, with elongated fingers and strong arms. Their skin can be a multitude of colours, but usually have a lot of body hair, with vibrant colours of any kind for their hair to be possible.

Trolls are generally survival focused, they are grounded and love the land with their utmost, having deep traditions and rituals to make sure their surroundings are safe and in good condition. They are generally quite savvy when it comes to understanding their environments and their residents inside of it, and generally making more friends with others

Native Environments

Trolls live in a lot of wilderness environments, most choosing to live alone, or living in very small groups with one another. They live in deep forests, bogs, caves and other locations where they can live off of the land. They’re known to keep and tend to amazing and large gardens, and tend to be extremely territorial and wary of them.

History

Trolls don’t have much of a written history, relying more on oral traditions created by themselves, such as song and storytelling. They have had multiple famines, wars and plagues, usually involving crows or scavenger birds circling them.

Society & Culture

Trolls live all by themselves, but they do hear the sounds from other trolls in nearby locations, with various songs and sounds heard from them, they communicate amongst the trees like birds with one another, singing out loud for others to hear them when they would like to be exposed.
