* Forest Trolls: One of the more common interpretations of the troll, Forest Trolls are about the size of humans, but more muscular, green-skinned, and with a pair of tusks extending from their jaws. Forest Trolls are fleet of foot, and enjoy hunting as a favourite pastime, with human prey as no exception. Aside from these hunting tirades, Forest Trolls are docile enough, just be sure not to trespass into their homes. They live, true to their names, in forests, mostly temperate or boreal, but not near taiga forests.

* Island Trolls: The tropical trolls have blue skin and an eye for a kill. Island Trolls are very proficient in ranged combat; throwing weapons and bows. Island Trolls are known for their practice of voodoo related religion, and live in villages surrounded by "wards" which they believe fend off evil spirits and demons. They are not foreign to eating other creatures they come across or even cannibalism. They are very deadly and, true to their name, dwell on offshore islands in the tropics.

Cave Trolls: Cave Trolls are nocturnal or else. They are usually quite large, but slow because of their girth, and very stupid, with pale skin and dark hair. If exposed to sunlight, they turn to some sort of stone (and die). Cave Trolls are drawn to riches, even though they never use them, and usually attack traveling camps by night and steal what they can and eat who they can. Because of the decrease in traditional travel in this fashion (walk by day, camp out by night), many Cave Troll tribes have dwindled (but no one's really crying about it), as well as poaching them for the sometimes valuable stone they turn into. To escape the wrath of daybreak, they hide out in their caves, with their hoard of loot.

River Trolls: These River Trolls look exactly like humans, except with purple skin and pointed ears. However, this does not make them any less dangerous than their kindred. River Trolls hate all other creatures, even their own, and live alone on the shores of rivers. These are most infamed for living beneath bridges and when travelers would wander across, they would be snatched away and eaten, after being drowned in the river. Little else is known of River Trolls, as they have become extremely rare and secretive.

Knoll Trolls: Dwelling in hollow hills, Knoll Trolls are a more docile race of troll, who are noble and aren't usually known for going around eating people. Knoll Trolls have a dark yellow complexion, are quite tall and muscular, and have tusks and horns. Knoll Trolls have a highly disciplined martial art, which they use for stillness of soul and mind. They are willing to defend their territory, however, and will do so against instigators. However, there has never been a documented case in which a Knoll Troll attacked unprovoked.

** Gray Trolls: These very dangerous trolls are the Gray Trolls. Trained from birth in the art of sorcery, Gray Trolls are accustomed to raising armies of the Undead to do their will. Most younger Gray Trolls are forever in training, and usually, only Elders are seen outside their encampments. Elders carry flags of their clans, and every time they make a kill, they adorn the flagpole with the collarbone of their victim. Elders are usually flanked by a band of Undead soldiers, and they usually return as Necrarchs or, by their own bidding, Wights, after death. Gray Trolls are, as implied, gray-skinned and small; not much taller than dwarves.

Goblins: The common Goblin is small, green, with a pointed nose, soft build, and evil glare. Goblins are known to be ingenious but with a sadistic streak, creating potions and then capturing humans to test them on. Goblins keep away from outsiders, dwelling inside large alchemist labs they build inside secluded forests. They are also corrupted by an insatiable thirst for money and wealth, and so some have been known to be merchants who sell rare merchandise for outrageous prices. They aren't well known for eating humans, but instead capture mostly birds for food.

Brownies: Often thought to be a race of fairies, Brownies are small, kind-hearted creatures who would stand up to the average human's knee. Reports are sketchy, but most insist on human-like appearance, with pointed ears and nose, and are usually hunched over. Brownies infest homes and do household chores when the residents are asleep. However, when they are repaid for their services in any way, they will leave the house. Precisely why they leave or do the chores to begin with are unknown.

* Mountain Goblins: Larger than the average Goblin (but still relatively small), and usually stronger and more muscular, Mountain Goblins also have horns and pale grey-green skin. They live in mountain caves, mining minerals from it and crafting them into weapons and armour. They are in long alliance with many packs of the cryptic Wargs, and have been known to ride them into battle on occasion. Mountain Goblins are, on the most part, not to be trusted.

Kobolds: Commonly called Dog-men or Mole-men in folklore, Kobolds aren't usually unkind towards outsiders. They resemble dog-like creatures with hands for front paws who stand upright, however, for better speed, they can get down on all fours and run for it. Labyrs of Kobolds existed primarily in Germany and would build massive underground tunnels, and were rarely seen without a shovel. They were so engrossed in their work, they would attack any who interrupted it with their shovels. They have nowadays become scarce.

Pygmies: These are the joke of the Goblin world. Pygmies are a race of tiny human-like creatures, each standing the height of a man's finger. What is really funny, though, is the animosity of the pygmies. They are on a never-ending quest to slaughter all who stand before them, and attack anything they see. Pygmies are really dumb, and stories abound about them using ladders to climb up on sleeping victims and then attack them with needle-sized sword. Then, of course, the "victim" would awake and step on the misguided pygmies. Never has it been documented that the pygmies ever killed anything, save for maybe the odd mosquito.

* Night Goblins: Night Goblins are something in the way of eccentric, called by some insane, and yet by others stupid, but they are ingenious in the ways of twisted magic. Night Goblins are very meticulous in the study of sorcery, and very excited by its fiendish results. Slightly smaller than the common Goblin, Night Goblins are distinct by slightly darker skin, but mostly by the dark robes and hats they wear almost constantly. Night Goblins are so named because of their instinctual nocturnal habits. This brand of Goblin bears no allegiance to any, and seek the undoing of all living they hold before them.

Swamp Goblins: The Swamp Goblins are a warrior race of Goblins, but who still seek riches as a reward for their services. Swamp Goblins look exactly like common Goblins only slightly larger and with one more finger than their common kindred, so it can be very hard to tell them apart. Swamp Goblins not only live in swamps, but forested areas as well. They never live on open ground. Swamp Goblins like to hire themselves out as mercenaries, as well as craft for themselves armour and weapons, although nowadays they buy heavier artillery. They are most famed for breeding giant spiders and then riding them into battle.
