Order of the Troll (HB Blood Hunter)

It was said that the first Blood Hunter in the Order of the Troll was merely the result of harsh circumstances and luck. A lone blood hunter lost in the harsh mountain range found refuge in a cave. Inside this cave the hunter was prepared to die at the hands of some creature that called this cave home, or die of starvation. Instead he found an ancient troll moments away from dying of old age. Seeing the opportunity, and blinded by hunger the hunter started to eat the weak and feeble troll, not even giving it the courtesy of killing it first. The hunter ate through the troll's chest cavity faster than its flesh could regenerate until he got to the troll's heart. Not aware of the drastic changes that lie in wait, he consumed the still beating heart. The heart having found a new body to beat on inside latched to his organs, twisting and changing him. Over the course of three agonizing days the hunter endured the painful growths and changes his new heart was forcing on him. His arms nearly doubled in length, his bones broke and shifted to accommodate his new form. By the end of it he was no longer entirely human, though was not a troll either. He founded the Blood Hunter Order of the Troll and vowed to perfect this transformation. Blood hunters in today's world undergo extreme open heart surgery, where their heart is replaced with that of a piece of their founder’s heart. The very heart that mixes both Hunter and monster hearts.
