The '''trolls''' are a faction consisting of three primary members: {{favilink|Jotun, Who Parts Limbs}}, {{favilink|Fjorn-Kosef, Who Knits The Icy Lattice}}, and {{favilink|Haggabah, Who Plies The Umbral Path}}. The {{favilink|troll foal|plural}} produced by them are also considered a part of the trolls faction.
'''Trolls''' are the three unique [[legendary creature|legendary creatures]] residing in the healing pool strata of {{f|Bethesda Susa}}, as well as any {{f|troll foal|plural}} who may [[budding|bud]] from their bodies.


This faction is unique in that its members are interested in trading secrets about "storied items". Performing the [[water ritual]] with any one of it's three primary members allows the player to learn the location of such storied items, including {{favilink|Stopsvalinn}}, {{favilink|Ruin of House Isner}}, and {{favilink|Kindrish}}. The player must have the appropriate [[reputation]] to exchange. The player can also inform the trolls of these secrets if they have already learned them, in order to gain reputation with the faction. Notably, this is the only way to learn the whereabouts of Kindrish under normal circumstances.
Performing the [[water ritual]] with a troll allows the player to learn the locations of ''storied items,'' namely {{f|Stopsvalinn}}, the {{f|Ruin of House Isner}}, {{f|Kindrish}}, and the one part from the Great Machine chosen during world generation. Learning secrets from trolls is the only consistent way to learn the locations of Kindrish and of the part from the Great Machine.


Players start the game with a very low reputation with trolls, causing them to begin hostile to the player. A significant investment in raising this reputation value is required to pacify the trolls, and even more to be able to trade secrets with them.
The unique trolls each pose a different challenge in combat, described on their respective pages.

* References to unimplemented "troll heroes" remain in the game's code. These non-unique legendary trolls would have generated in a similar manner to legendary {{f|snapjaw warlord|plural}} and {{f|goatfolk shaman|plural}}.{{Code Reference|namespace=XRL.World.ObjectBuilders|class=TrollHero1}} While these trolls do not exist as creatures and cannot be spawned,<ref name="Creatures"><code>Creatures.xml</code></ref> a legendary troll created using [[wishes]] will use the same naming scheme.
If you have the [[Tactful]] skill, using two {{f|love injector|plural}} will allow you to water ritual the first two trolls to become neutral with them, and then water ritual the third without the use of an injector. This will leave just enough reputation to purchase one secret. Note that you will need to water ritual Haggabah, which can be tricky, please view his page for details on how to do so.


If you wish to acquire all three relics they hint to, you will need to find one of the relics first so you can trade its secret for reputation (and that reputation for a secret). It will usually be easiest to locate the Ruin of House Isner, as Stopsvalinn can only be reliably located by befriending the [[Snapjaws]], and Kindrish is only hinted by the trolls themselves.

Alternatively, if you do not wish to hunt a relic down first, you can use a {{f|Schrodinger page from the Annals of Qud}} or two, if you can acquire them.
