| Description = Trolls are horrible dwellers in the outdoors, the uneasy smaller cousins of Giants, who are more tightly tied to the native world than either the Giants or their terrible cousins, the ogres. | |||
:Trolls tend to be tall and lanky, often with a stooped, hunched posture. Their faces tend to be long and narrow of feature, with filthy, rotten, but very sharp teeth, long flexible limbs, and a loose, shambling gait. Trolls almost always have razor sharp claws to go with their teeth, and tend to prefer fighting with their natural weapons. | |||
:Trolls are not comfortable with the trappings of civilization, and tend to live "as nature meant," without benefit of tools, fire, or clothing. Trolls can readily tolerate this lack of comforts due to their incredible powers of regeneration. Trolls are easy to hurt, but exceedingly hard to kill. | |||
:Trolls tend to have skin of shades of green, often with an amazing array of warts, moles, hairs, and other noisome protuberances. Troll eyes tend to be black, although milky white and shades of grey-blue are not unheard of. | |||
:Trolls are uniformly terrible. They delight in tormenting the weak and will eat fellow sentient creatures alive, entertained by their screams and pleas. Trolls will work with other terrible creatures such as orcs and norkers, have an uneasy love/hate relationship with their fatter cousins, the ogres, and tend to like and look up to the giants, especially frost giants, fire giants, death giants, and fomaorians. | |||
:Cave Trolls are bigger, meaner, and much, much faster than regular trolls, but have weak eyes so that they actively avoid being out in daylight. As a consequence, Cave Trolls are almost always found in cave systems, dungeons, dark ruins, and the like. But that said, Cave Trolls pride themselves on their intelligence and sense of adventure, and the murderous fiends can be found roaming the surface at night, even up to a few hours walk from their lairs. | |||
:Given how fast Cave Trolls walk, that's a really long way, too. | |||
:Cave Trolls look exactly like their smaller Troll cousins, except that while most Trolls are almost skinny, Cave Trolls are quite meaty. They are certainly not fat, and nowhere near as rotund as the Ogres, but they are stout, with big hands and feet, thick, strong wrists, and big arms. They are the same height and have the same reach, but a Cave Troll will weigh triple what a regular Troll weighs. | |||
:Despite their bulk, Cave Trolls are ridiculously fast and quick, and their agility has to be seen to be believed. They can shamble on their long bulky legs as fast as a horse can run, and when they put on a burst of speed, its sobering and educational, to put it mildly. | |||

If things are going poorly, Cave Trolls will abandon a battle to go regenerate, think things over, and come back again for another try. Doing this gives players a hard choice: Pursue the fleeing cave trolls, or neutralize the very quickly regenerating one's they've defeated already. | | MoveTypes = [[Walk]] 60 ft., [[Greater Climb]] 20 ft. | ||

:* Its Regeneration ticks, healing it for {{#var:Special2-Hit-Points}} points of damage. If its regeneration was disabled this round because of fire or acid damage, that disability is cleared, and then the regeneration goes off. | |||
:* It gains one additional bite attack in its next attack action. | |||
:* It immediately gains a move action. | |||

| Ability-2-Description = Cave Trolls regenerate {{#var:Special2-Hit-Points}} points of damage at the start of their turns. However, if the troll takes any fire or acid damage, he cannot regenerate on the following turn. Regeneration will allow a troll to reattach severed limbs or regrow them if they aren't available for reattachment. This regeneration continues to operate even past 'death', and a troll can only be killed by dealing half again their maximum hit points past zero, while their regeneration is suppressed by fire or acid damage. Completely destroying the body by burning it in a large fire such as a massive bonfire, a house or building fire, lava, or a forest fire, or submerging it in a vat of acid will also work. | |||

Special Abilities
Burst of Speed (Su) |
Once per encounter, as a swift action, a Cave Troll may generate a tremendous burst of speed. This grants it several benefits.
|
Regeneration (Ex) |
Cave Trolls regenerate points of damage at the start of their turns. However, if the troll takes any fire or acid damage, he cannot regenerate on the following turn. Regeneration will allow a troll to reattach severed limbs or regrow them if they aren't available for reattachment. This regeneration continues to operate even past 'death', and a troll can only be killed by dealing half again their maximum hit points past zero, while their regeneration is suppressed by fire or acid damage. Completely destroying the body by burning it in a large fire such as a massive bonfire, a house or building fire, lava, or a forest fire, or submerging it in a vat of acid will also work. |
Cave Troll
Trolls are horrible dwellers in the outdoors, the uneasy smaller cousins of Giants, who are more tightly tied to the native world than either the Giants or their terrible cousins, the ogres.
- Trolls tend to be tall and lanky, often with a stooped, hunched posture. Their faces tend to be long and narrow of feature, with filthy, rotten, but very sharp teeth, long flexible limbs, and a loose, shambling gait. Trolls almost always have razor sharp claws to go with their teeth, and tend to prefer fighting with their natural weapons.
- Trolls are not comfortable with the trappings of civilization, and tend to live "as nature meant," without benefit of tools, fire, or clothing. Trolls can readily tolerate this lack of comforts due to their incredible powers of regeneration. Trolls are easy to hurt, but exceedingly hard to kill.
- Trolls tend to have skin of shades of green, often with an amazing array of warts, moles, hairs, and other noisome protuberances. Troll eyes tend to be black, although milky white and shades of grey-blue are not unheard of.
- Trolls are uniformly terrible. They delight in tormenting the weak and will eat fellow sentient creatures alive, entertained by their screams and pleas. Trolls will work with other terrible creatures such as orcs and norkers, have an uneasy love/hate relationship with their fatter cousins, the ogres, and tend to like and look up to the giants, especially frost giants, fire giants, death giants, and fomaorians.
- Cave Trolls are bigger, meaner, and much, much faster than regular trolls, but have weak eyes so that they actively avoid being out in daylight. As a consequence, Cave Trolls are almost always found in cave systems, dungeons, dark ruins, and the like. But that said, Cave Trolls pride themselves on their intelligence and sense of adventure, and the murderous fiends can be found roaming the surface at night, even up to a few hours walk from their lairs.
- Given how fast Cave Trolls walk, that's a really long way, too.
- Cave Trolls look exactly like their smaller Troll cousins, except that while most Trolls are almost skinny, Cave Trolls are quite meaty. They are certainly not fat, and nowhere near as rotund as the Ogres, but they are stout, with big hands and feet, thick, strong wrists, and big arms. They are the same height and have the same reach, but a Cave Troll will weigh triple what a regular Troll weighs.
- Despite their bulk, Cave Trolls are ridiculously fast and quick, and their agility has to be seen to be believed. They can shamble on their long bulky legs as fast as a horse can run, and when they put on a burst of speed, its sobering and educational, to put it mildly.
Combat Tactics
Cave Trolls are surprisingly capable combatants. They love to drop onto unsuspecting victims from the ceiling, counting on their large size and heavyset looks to make it unlikely that people will look up for something so large. It's eerie watching a Cave Troll climbing with fluid agility, their massive hands and toes clinging to rock and wood like a gecko's toes.
- They will charge into melee combat otherwise, using their high land speed to get into melee. Note that they cannot use Burst of Speed after a charge! They need a swift action to trigger it.
- In general, some Cave Trolls use Burst of Speed as soon as possible, so they can move and take a full attack with the extra attack. Other Cave Trolls will save it, and use it to flee a battle that's going poorly.
- In combat, Cave Trolls are just horrible to deal with. They use five foot steps to open the range, and they just beat the melee sorts to death with attacks of opportunity due to their reach and Combat Reflexes. They are smart enough to bypass a strong melee combatant and go attack the back of the party, too. They know what healers are, and don't like them. If they can't reach the back line, they carry some handy rocks, too.
- If things are going poorly, Cave Trolls will abandon a battle to go regenerate, think things over, and come back again for another try. Doing this gives players a hard choice: Pursue the fleeing cave trolls, or neutralize the very quickly regenerating one's they've defeated already.
Out of Combat
Cave Trolls are as horrible as all other trolls, and are thus in some demand as 'muscle' for weaker clans of monsters. Orcs, in particular, like Cave Trolls for their sneaky ways and ability to climb well. Most smaller monsters, however, look too much like victims for Cave Trolls to resist their baser urges.
- More powerful creatures rarely bother with Cave Trolls. Their inability to take orders or follow direction consistently, combined with their delight in roaming and weak eyes to make other creatures more suited for service to the mighty.
- On their own, Cave Trolls form up into loose bands, often blood-related. Not exactly family, but definitely with bonds between them, on the principal that its better to know the devil next door than not. Such loose clans of Cave Trolls will stake out a ruin, cave, tunnel, even sewers and less common habitats, and move right in. Cave Trolls are hardy and adaptable.
