Some are dim predators; others are old, proud, and socially alien. ===== Myth and Folklore ===== In older Norse and later Scandinavian folklore, trolls are not one simple species. They can overlap with giants, magic-workers, mountain beings, and dangerous outsiders. ===== Campaign Use ===== Use trolls as regenerating monsters, ancient local powers, cursed mountain flesh, or the visible servants of deeper threats like [[campaigns:latitude_history:lore:thullgrim|Thullgrim]]. ===== Latitude Lore ===== * [[campaigns:latitude_history:lore:thullgrim|Thullgrim]] * [[campaigns:latitude_history:lore:lesser-stone-troll|Lesser Stone Troll]] * [[campaigns:latitude_history:lore:bruarlagi|Brúarlagi]] * [[campaigns:latitude_history:lore:necklace-of-troll-detection|Necklace of Troll Detection]] ===== See Also ===== * [[:creatures|Norse Creatures]] ===== Sources ===== * Troll: https://grokipedia.com/page/Troll ===== Game Master Notes ===== DM-only encounter details, stat blocks, and running notes are kept at [[dm:creatures:trolls|Trolls (DM)]]. creatures/trolls.txt Last modified: 2026/07/04 00:38by Seraphina
