Description
Ancient trolls are far larger and bulkier than their common kin, towering nearly twice a man’s height and thick with corded muscle. Their hide is a mottled gray-green, like stone left to rot, and their claws are as long as daggers. Unlike younger trolls, these creatures slumber for centuries at a time, buried in caves or beneath hills, their bodies half-fused with the earth. When disturbed, they rise in a blind frenzy of hunger and destruction, rampaging until they are grievously harmed. Only then will they crawl back into the dark to heal, their wounds knitting with unnatural speed. Fire and acid remain their only true banes.
