Trolls
From Sixth World Wiki
Trolls (lat.: Homo sapiens ingentis) appeared for the first time in 2021. On 30 April 2021 about one tenth of mankind goblinized into orks or trolls. In years to follow, many humans in the course of their puberty also goblinized into orks or trolls.
[edit] Troll Variants
Metavariants of Homo sapiens ingentis (trolls) include:
- Cyclops: one-eyed Mediterranean troll
- Fomori: Irish Celtic troll
- Giants: Nordic troll
- Minotaurs: rare Mediterranean troll
[edit] Characteristics
Trolls are larger than humans with an average height of about 280 cm (9'2") and an average weight of 225kg (496 lb). In addition to this enormous body size, trolls tend to have tusks and horns (which may or may not have symmetry). Ingentis body proportions differ from sapiens, with the ratio of arm-to-leg length significantly higher in ingentis. Trolls have calcified dermal deposits throughout their skin, which can resemble large warts, spines or an armor-plated effect. These dermal deposits make trolls more resistant to physical trauma. It is assumed that trolls have an average life expectancy of approximately fifty years, but this number varies depending on social conditions and environment. Trolls can see in a broader spectrum than humans, with their vision extending into infrared.
