Troll-kin

VGM

Troll (Goliath)

Troll-kin are a grotesque, humanoid species that typically inhabit the Freljord and Shurima. While smaller than their more primal cousins, they are still larger than most humans. The Frost-Trolls are mostly blue-skinned and live in tribes in the frozen wastelands of the Freljord. The Sand-Trolls are fairly similar, but have a greyish-purple skin. They originated from Icathia but have spent several centuries roaming since the desolation of their homeland by the void.

Trolls of the Freljord
Among the Frost-Trolls of the Freljord, any adult who can't contribute to the tribe is expelled. A lone troll has little chance of survival in the unforgiving frozen wastes, especially an older or weaker one. Frost-trolls have little pity for adults who can't take care of themselves, though a sick or injured individual is treated. A permanently injured troll is still expected to pull his or her weight in the tribe. Typically, such a troll dies attempting to keep up, or the troll slips away in the night to seek the cold will of fate.   Frost-trolls typically reach an adult height between 7 and 8 feet tall, weighing between 280 and 340 pounds. Their bodies are covered in short fur, usually a light blue, though they also grow hair similar to other humanoids on their head that ranges in colors from deep reds to white. They have a variety of physical characteristics such as size and hair skin colors with wart-like protrusions all across their bodies, with some trolls even having sharp blade-like protrusions. They have large noses, which are a different shade compared to their skin color; they also have large tusk-like front teeth that give them a perpetual underbite, with some older troll individuals growing their teeth to the size of actual tusks.  
Trolls of Shurima
The homeland of the Sand-Trolls is the once-great lands of Icathia. Before the Void destroyed it, it was a powerful nation that was able to resist the pull of the Shuriman Empire in its prime. The incursion of the Void into their lands, however, destroyed the lands and forced survivors out into the world. Nowadays, they tend to roam in nomadic groups in the deserts of Shurima. Those that leave the desert behind usually find work as brutes, though there are certainly those that have made their way into magical communities.
