Undo revision 89457 by DuskTheUmbreon (talk) - Turns out I had forgotten I had raised reputation with the trolls beforehand when I experienced this, this renders most of this information inaccurate.

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}}.

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.

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.

    Trolls

    Trolls are the three unique legendary creatures residing in the healing pool strata of Bethesda Susa, as well as any troll foals who may bud from their bodies.

    Performing the water ritual with a troll allows the player to learn the locations of storied items, namely Stopsvalinn, the Ruin of House Isner, 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.

    The unique trolls each pose a different challenge in combat, described on their respective pages.

    Trivia

    • 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 snapjaw warlords and goatfolk shamans.[1] While these trolls do not exist as creatures and cannot be spawned,[2] a legendary troll created using wishes will use the same naming scheme.
