Troll
Trolls are huge, lumbering humanoids that are greatly feared. There are two distinct breeds of troll, hill and river.
Hill trolls have long arms and legs, and their hands and feet are broad, with thick toes and fingers. They tend to be fat, and are rather lazy in appearance. Hill trolls have wide, dark eyes, small ears, and large tusks jutting from the lower jaw of their wide mouth. They wear clothes occasionally, usually ragged pants and heavy wool shirts. They reach heights of 12 feet tall on average, though some grow much larger. Trolls are not particularly intelligent creatures, lusting more after food and drink than anything else. They love the taste of goats and sheep most of all. They are wicked creatures that enjoy torturing prey before killing it. Hill trolls are aggressive hunters, and fear verylittle. Hill trolls are usually found alone, though occasionally they wander in hunting groups.
A smaller breed, the river troll, is a warty creature with mottled flesh, elongated facial features, and nasty claws. They are large, standing as tall as 8 feet. They usually forgo clothing, but occasionally wear a loin cloth. Despite their name, river trolls can dwell anywhere, but they prefer the wet, moist environment of river banks. They will take up residence under bridges, deep in swamps, and in other wet places. River trolls form families of up to 12 that hunt together as a pack. River trolls are very aggressive, and merciless in battle.
