ing as much as 10 feet tall, and filling it out with lean muscle.<br />

Their skin tone ranges the spectrum with earthy greenish tones<br />

being the most common. Of course, their most notable feature<br />

is their hideousness.<br />

Combat<br />

Trolls are universally furious in combat. At times they can<br />

be difficult to rouse, but once they commit to a battle, they<br />

see it through. Despite their rage, they are somewhat clever,<br />

employing strategy that most underestimate them of. Most<br />

trolls use weapons, and many wear piecemeal or leather armor,<br />

although seldom of crafted metal.<br />

Feats: Standard trolls (and pitch and winter trolls) receive<br />

Great Fortitude as a bonus feat.<br />

Regeneration (Ex): Fire and acid deal normal damage to a<br />

troll. If it loses a limb or body part, the lost portion regrows<br />

in 6d6 minutes. The troll can reattach the severed limb instantly<br />

by holding it to the stump; however, if the troll does not do<br />

so within 1 minute of the limb being severed it can no longer<br />

be reattached and spawns a whelp.<br />

Spawn Whelps (Ex): Standard trolls have a 20% chance<br />

of being accompanied by 1d4 whelps, half of which will be<br />

mature. These whelps grow from severed body parts into<br />

immature whelps in 1d4 days and into mature whelps in<br />

1d4 weeks. They typically die within 4d6 months. When<br />

times are lean, trolls often eat<br />

their whelps.<br />

Skills: *Standard, pitch,<br />

and winter trolls use their<br />

Strength modifier instead of their<br />

Charisma modifier <strong>for</strong> Intimidate checks.<br />

Subraces<br />

Winter Trolls<br />

Winter trolls are a breed of white-skinned<br />

troll adapted to extremely cold climes. They are<br />

far more sluggish than typical trolls and are generally<br />

the least hungry of all breeds, including<br />

trollkin. Winter trolls love freezing their food,<br />

often while it’s still alive, in blocks of ice to<br />

dine on later. They are identical to standard<br />

trolls, except as noted here.<br />

In combat winter trolls usually command their<br />

whelps to attack first, and once they begin a melee<br />

they tend to open with their ice breath followed<br />

by melee combat.<br />

Ice breath (Su): Winter trolls<br />

can breathe a 20-foot-long line<br />

of frigid cold (5 ft. high<br />

and 5 ft. wide) once every<br />

1d6 rounds. Damage 3d4<br />

cold, Reflex half DC 19. As a<br />

Dire troll<br />

189 <br />

Trolls<br />

full-round action, the troll can sweep the line through a 180°<br />

arc. Damage 3d4 cold, Reflex half DC 15. The save DC is<br />

Constitution-based.<br />

Regeneration (Ex): Fire and acid deal normal damage to winter<br />

trolls. If it loses a limb or body part, the lost portion regrows<br />

in 1d4 hours. The winter troll can reattach the severed limb<br />

instantly by holding it to the stump, however if the winter troll<br />

does not do so within 5 minutes of the limb being severed it can<br />

no longer be reattached and will spawn a whelp.<br />

Spawn Whelps (Ex): Winter troll whelps have the cold<br />

subtype; they are otherwise identical to standard troll whelps.<br />

Pitch Trolls<br />

Pitch trolls, also known as fire trolls, are a breed of troll<br />

typically deep burgundy in color that are found in extremely hot<br />

areas. They are considered hyperactive compared to other trolls,<br />

and subsist on a larger diet, though they are less picky in what<br />

they eat (which is to say that they’ll eat absolutely anything).<br />

They are identical to standard trolls, except as noted here.<br />

Pitch trolls tend to shun combat more than most breeds,<br />

preferring to hound opponents from afar by throwing rocks<br />

or sending whelps after them<br />

rather than attacking outright.<br />

When in melee<br />

they tend to rely on<br />

their bite more<br />
