Troll
Lucky. Lighthearted. Peaceful. Trolls are an eccentric and happy species who have the uncanniest luck of any people.
History
Trolls carved their lives at the edges of the Elven woods during the Age of Growth. Through unobtrusive lifestyles and profound luckiness, they avoided slaughter at the hands of the Dragons. Since the early days of their existence, Pixies and Trolls have had a strong friendship that has lasted to this day.
Culture
Trolls are a peaceful people who avoid violence and live in small clusters. They maintain a strong alliance with their ancient friends, the Pixies, and interact with them frequently. In the rare event that Pixies or Troll become involved in large conflict, the other will inevitably join them.
Trolls live within small villages at the edges of the woodland that houses Pixies and Elves. They live in large family units, expanding their cottages as needed to accommodate all within the family. Bonds to family and close neighbors is highly valued in Troll culture.
Physicality
Trolls share visual similarities with Orcs, though they despise being mistaken for one. The similarities have spawned the saying in Human cultures that Elves are the Fae Humans, and Trolls are the Fae Orcs.
Their green skin has lighter shades than Orcs. The sharp teeth of a Troll is slenderer than those of Orcs and hide within their closed mouths. Their features are sharper, in contrast to the squarish features of most Orcs. The most striking difference between Trolls and Orcs is their hair color. Troll hair can have any color imaginable.
Common Names
Trolls have names similar to Elves or Humans, though often refer to themselves by their family name when outside their towns. Genni of Velilaro, Thomar of Wendlemoor
Physical Heritage
Troll blood most notably causes uncommon hair color.
