Midgard Lineages and Heritages, pg. 9

Trollkin

Trollkin skin tones range from green to brown, giving them a superficial similarity to orcs. What sets them apart is how their inhuman ancestry manifests. Some bear their ancestry across their entire body, limbs elongated with talon-tipped fingers and toes. Others are more subtle, such as uniquely shaped facial features or a strange texture on the skin.

As a result of their ancestry and appearance, trollkin are often met with skepticism and sometimes fear. This reputation leads trollkin to form close-knit communities, preferring isolation from larger civilization. In the wilds outside of urban life, trollkin live in tribes, hunting and raiding to survive. These trollkin often venerate their ancestors with tattoos. Some even brand their flesh to show their dedication, since only fire or acid can scar their bodies


age: Trollkin reach adulthood by the age of 15, living up to 60 years.
Size: Medium
speed: 30ft

traits:

Natural Weapons

You have large fangs, stout hooves, or sharp claws instead of fingernails and toenails, which serve as a natural weapon. Work with your GM to determine what type of natural weapon you possess and decide whether it does bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage. You can use your natural weapon to make unarmed strikes. When you hit with it, you deal 1d6 + your STR or DEX modifier damage (choose which during character creation) of your chosen type, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed attack.

Trollish Regeneration

The regenerative power in your blood allows you to quickly recover from wounds. As a bonus action, you can expend a number of hit dice equal to your PB to regain hit points as if you finished a short rest. You can use this trait once until you finish a long rest. If you take acid or fire damage, you lose access to this ability until you finish a short or long rest.

Natural Adaptation

You manifest different traits depending on your inhuman ancestor. Select one of the following at character creation.

• Ogre. Your body is powerfully built and imposing. You have advantage on ability checks and saves made to initiate and escape grapples.

• Troll. You are about as large as Medium size gets, but not quite Large. You have advantage on saves against the stunned condition.


Trollkin have a wide range of physicality depending on their inhuman ancestors. Typically, trollkin stand well over 6 feet tall and are sturdier than humans, weighing around 200 pounds.
