Troll (Arbint)

creature MÖRK BORG Bare Bones Edition, p.60

cowards who never forget

HP 32, Morale special, Thick hide −d2, Fist 2d6 Special: Easy to hit; attacks are dr10.

Cowards despite their size. Usually retreat if badly wounded. Never forget who hurt them. They grow larger during the healing process and will definitely come back, stronger than before. Any hp healed is added to their maximum hp. Every time they return, add another d6 to their damage.

Loot: Captured 200s — Corpse 70s — Horn 25s

The Basilisks Demand occasionally calls for "a troll's heart valves." Adventure seed 81–82: "Alchemist needs a living goblin" (the equivalent troll-hunt is implied as a Merchant offer — see Jar of Troll Piss).

Gaps / Expansion Notes

Individual trolls, troll-clans, troll territory, and troll-language are all unwritten. The size/damage escalation mechanic means a "named troll" returning over a campaign is a built-in feature.
