Edit Page Content
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.

Troll
Towering brutes with slavering jaws and razor-sharp claws, trolls are voracious predators. They are nigh invulnerable and single-minded in their pursuit, so they throw themselves against prey with reckless abandon. Wounds that would cripple or kill most other creatures regenerate into healthy troll flesh within seconds.
Trolls don’t mark their hunting grounds with claw marks or urine as beasts do. After gorging upon their kill, they suspend any meat, bones, or other bodily detritus that remain from tree branches to mark their domains. Unfortunately, trolls tend to treat these borders as approximations. Before a hapless traveler even spots such a grisly marker and realizes that they have wandered into troll territory, the trolls are already preparing to attack.
These pages present lesser-known varieties beyond the common troll.
Mother of Trolls
Trolls and ettins do not normally seek one another as mates, but this pairing is the source of the original two-headed trolls—such couplings were engineered and arranged by the cult of Lamashtu in ages past. Oblivious to their origin, two-headed trolls tend to give no deference to the Mother of Monsters.
