Trolls were a ravenous, predatory species of giant humanoid found throughout almost all the regions and types of climates, from arctic wastes to tropical jungles and came in several sub-species. They were uncivilized, monstrous creatures with voracious appetites that roamed from one area to the next feeding upon whatever they could. While some classified them as giants, trolls had no confirmed relation to either
ANNAM ALL-FATHER or
OTHEA and did not qualify as either true giants or giant-kin.
A typical adult troll stood around 9-feet tall on long, ungainly legs. Their deceptively thin bodies had thick, rubbery hides colored in shades of mossy green or putrid greys, and possessed long hanging arms that ended in massive claws. The skull of a troll had a messy, hair-like growth colored black or steel grey. Females were typically larger, and more powerful, than males. Although they walked upright, trolls possessed a severe hunch, which caused the backs of their hands to drag on the ground. When they ran, their arms dangled still. Despite their awkward physical appearance, trolls were surprisingly agile and were well adapted to be masterful climbers.
