from the 4th edition [[Monster Manual (4th edition)|Monster Manual]] height = 9' weight = 700 lbs. ^Domicileland = [[Argonnessen]]; [[Droaam]]; [[Les Bastions de la Nation]]; [[Sarlona]]; [[Xen'drik]] language = [[geant_langue|Géant]] 3e_type = {{tagpage>"Géants"|Géant}} The huge, monstrous **trolls** have been around for ages, natives to all of the continents of Eberron. The trolls of [[Khorvaire]] have been forced from most areas by the civilized races. Most of them have fled to [[Droaam]], where they serve as elite guards for the [[Filles De Sora Kell]]. ====== Histoire ====== Trolls are one of the few races of [[Eberron]] that have been found on all four major continents. Their origins are unknown. Most trolls live in tribes in the wilderness. In the year 986 AR, towards the end of the [[Dernière Guerre]], three Sorcières known as the [[Filles De Sora Kell]] organized the monstrous races of Droaam into a unified nation. The trolls joined the forces of the Daughters, where they act as an elite guard for the trio. When [[Maison Tharashk]] began recruiting the monstrous races for their services, trolls (especially war trolls) were among the races to be hired by the [[maisons_marquees_du_dragon|Maison Marquée du Dragon]]. ======Species====== =====ice Trolls===== ^Race name = ice Troll height = 8' weight = 400 lbs. ice trolls are trolls that have been bred to live in the coldest of environments. They are very similar to regular trolls, except that they relish the crafting of armor and weapons. These trolls are immune to cold attacks, and can spew freezing spittle at their prey. ice trolls have been spotted in the snow-covered mountains of [[Xen'drik]]. =====War Trolls===== War trolls are very similar to normal trolls; however, their increased intelligence makes them better fighters. Unlike their slower brethren, war trolls use manufactured weapons and armor. In Droaam, most war trolls serve as elite squads under the direct command of the [[npc:sora_maenya]], while some have left Droaam to work as mercenaries for Maison Tharashk. Some war trolls have also ended up working indirectly for the Daughters as members of [[Daask]]. War trolls have also been seen as parts of the forces of [[Brelande]], [[Cyre]], and [[Darguun]] during La Dernière Guerre, where they played the role of support to the infantry units of those countries. ======Homelands====== Most of the trolls that once roamed the continent of Khorvaire now call Droaam home, where they serve the Filles De Sora Kell. They can be found in most of the cities of Droaam, including the [[Grand Rocher]], [[Muraille-Grise]], and [[Tzaryan Keep]]. However, not all trolls call Droaam home. Some trolls also call the mountains of the [[Bastions de la Nation]] home, where they plague the [[nain|Nains]] and [[Orc]]s that live there. Trolls are also natives of the other three continents: [[Argonnessen]], [[Sarlona]], and [[Xen'drik]], where they roam free in the wildernesses of those continents. On Xen'drik, some trolls (including some scrags) have come under the rule of the green dragon [[Zartarxis]]. ======Notable Names====== {{:112278.jpg|//Mulraargo, the Tar-Skinned Troll//}} * **[[Korgel Blackblade]]**, the war troll, is the leader of the [[Garde du Flagelleur]], an elite squad of monsters under the command of the mayor of [[Muraille-Grise]]: [[Xor'chylic]]. * **[[Lhugol]]** is a troll [[lycanthrope|were-wolverine]] and a member of the [[Beast Brigade]]: an elite tactical unit for Droaam that fought during La Dernière Guerre. * **[[Maarg'jarth]]**, also called the "God's Huntmaster", is the food hunter for the great green dragon Zartarxis in the wilderness of Xen'drik. * **[[npc:mulraargo|Mulraargo, the Tar-Skinned Troll]]** is a menace that lurks within the soggy fens of [[Xen'drik]]. * The **[[Prince of Bones|"Prince of Bones"]]** is an elderly war troll that rules the lands around [[Suthar Draal]] under the aegis of the Filles De Sora Kell. ====== Apparence et Personnalité ====== Trolls are extremely large Humanoïdes with long, ungainly arms and legs. The average troll stands 9 feet tall, and weighs 500 pounds. Their arms end in wide, powerful hands with sharpened claws. Their hide is thick and rubbery, and is usually found in colors of green and gray. They have an abundance of thick, ropy hair. They have a tendency to walk hunched over, with an uneven gait. Trolls are not very intelligent, and hunger drives most of their motivation. Because of their regeneration, they have no fear of death, and will attack with wild abandon. ====== Capacités ====== Trolls are brutes with superHumain strength. They prefer to fight using this strength to their advantage. They will often fight with weapons, such as greatclubs, though they are also known to rend their opponents in half with their massive clawed hands. The trolls' greatest asset is their ability to regenerate damage. Trolls are known to regenerate at an astounding rate, and are capable of growing back whole limbs during a fight. Each species of troll has at least one damage type by which it does not regenerate: for most trolls, this is fire and acid. Trolls also have an enhanced sense of smell, and possess both low-light vision and darkvision. {{tag>["Géants"]}} {{tag>["Humanoïdes Monstrueux"]}} {{tag>["xen_drik"}}
