The troll race has been almost the same from start to finish. Not even the great spiritual revolution changed much. (they simply started seeing some of the gods as their "ancestors" and all seemed well). They started out as hunters, and they are so still. Hunting is the only thing they really need and they make sure they are good at it, this often makes the troll a sneaky sort. Trolls where always in tribes, as long as anyone can remember.
