Ice troll

Ice trolls were a type of troll that inhabited the cold north.

Description
Ice trolls stood about 8 feet tall and weighed around 400 pounds. They had sickly translucent white skin and if someone got close enough without being eaten they could see pale blood coursing underneath an ice troll's skin.

Biology
Much like the scrag, the regenerative abilities of ice trolls would only function when their bodies were immersed in water. Because of this, their lairs were typically found near lakes or rivers.

Ice trolls typically mated in the springtime and gave birth around the fall.

Society
Like all trolls, they were meat eaters and would gladly consume anything, even humanoids. What set them apart however was their ability to craft (and use) weapons and armor skillfully. They prefer armor made from the scales of remorhazes or white dragons.

Compared to other troll species, the ice trolls were known to be highly cooperative in order to ensure each other's survival.

Uses
The blood of ice trolls was frequently utilized in the manufacturing of frostbrands and rings of cold resistance.
