This book is an overview of the history of Troll society. Outsiders expect that what Trolls call society is nothing more than an extended version of king of the hill, where the strongest and most brutal lead. This is, of course, true. However, it isn't as simple as that. There are rules in Troll society just as there are in any other, but those rules have not prevented them from being a generally chaotic and undisciplined group of savage and powerful creatures. It becomes clear that this hectic way of life has left Trolls little time for more creative aspects of life. The author specifically focuses on armor. Throughout history Trolls have used armor made by other races; gathering their cast-offs, claiming them off their corpses or, rarely, paying to have pieces made. Despite this, the author discovers trends in the kind of armor that Trolls prefer, those that they find to be the most useful and useable. These trends lead to some interesting conclusions about what kind of armor a Troll would make if a Troll had the time to do so.

The patterns in this book can be copied many times, but eventually they will wear out and you can tell that if you use the patterns enough you will need to replace the book.

To create pattern for tailoring armor templates based on these patterns you will need this book, a large bottle of ink, a roll of plain parchment, a quill and a compacted backpack to hold the patterns you will make. You'll also need a book binding to do the work.

If you wish to use the patterns to make molds you'll need a kiln to work in as well as a high quality firing sheet, sculpting tools, a huge block of clay and a compacted backpack to hold the molds when you're done.
