Homebrew Trollkin Species Details

Trollkin are a race of large, brutish creatures that were created by an ancient magical ritual. They are known for their great strength and resilience, as well as their love of battle and strength of spirit. They are often found in the wilds, living off the land and taking what they need from nature. Trollkin are not naturally social creatures, but they do form small tribal societies in which they look out for one another. They are fiercely loyal to their own, and will fight to the death to protect their kin. They have a deep respect for nature, and often seek out powerful magical artifacts in order to protect their lands from harm. Trollkin are often seen as primitive by other races, but they are actually quite intelligent. They are often excellent strategists, and have a deep understanding of the natural world. They can often be found working as mercenaries, or sometimes as bodyguards or bounty hunters.
