Two-Headed Troll

Ready to play? Build unlimited Pathfinder 2e characters Create Now

Two-headed trolls are savage, dual-minded monsters with an unquenchable thirst for bloodshed, and dread tales of their ravenous appetites are whispered of in homesteads throughout the lands of the Inner Sea. Indeed, it is a custom for parents to invoke the Two-Headed Troll as a warning to misbehaving children. “Finish your chores,” a parent might say to a stubborn child, “or a Two-Headed Troll will snatch you away at night and swallow you whole!” It’s unclear why such a morbid tradition gained traction with parents, but it’s an undeniable fact that two-headed trolls have an appetite for “nibbles”—creatures small enough to devour with one bite.

Mature two-headed trolls stand 13 feet in height, weighing roughly 1,700 pounds. Unlike Common trolls, two-headed trolls share the upright gait of their ettin Ancestry and do not walk hunched over.

  • Head Regrowth A two-headed troll’s regeneration can regrow a severed head. After regaining Hit Points from regeneration, the two-headed troll attempts a DC 10 flat check. On a success, the missing head is fully restored. If a two-headed troll loses their last remaining head, they die immediately.
  • Independent Brains Each of a two-headed troll’s heads rolls their own initiative and has their own turn. Neither head can Delay. At the start of a head’s turn, that head gets 2 actions and 1 reaction. Each brain controls one of the troll’s arms, but both can move the legs. Any ability that would sever a two-headed troll’s head (such as the vorpal weapon property) doesn’t cause the two-headed troll to die if they still have their other head, but does cause them to lose the turns, actions, and reactions of the severed head. Mental effects that target a single creature affect only one of the troll’s heads.
  • Attack of Opportunity TriggerA creature within the monster’s reach uses a manipulate action or a move action, makes a ranged attack, or leaves a square during a move action it’s using. Effect: The monster attempts a melee Strike against the triggering creature. If the attack is a critical hit and the trigger was a manipulate action, the monster disrupts that action. This Strike doesn’t count toward the monster’s multiple attack penalty, and its multiple attack penalty doesn’t apply to this Strike.
