Seems little blunt unless you are planning on having several types of PC trolls?Workable. The extra +2 on abilites is probably driving some of the ECL. I always try to work my way back down to ECL +/- 0, so my comments will be aimed at keeping the flavor, but toning down the power <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />. I would kick around a base speed of 20 ft. if you want to offset some of the later bonuses.Eeek! Too much. Would dump the tumbleand swim, and restrict the bonus on the other skills to "while in forested terrain". Though with that restriction you might consider increasing the bonuses to +4 if you want to keep the +1 ECL. Otherwise I would create a racial feat for them that increases their bonus in the five remaining skills to +4 (with a prerequisite of level 6+).Similarly, if you do reduce their base speed, give them a dwarf-like bonus to overlands travel through forests. Their very at home in that terrain <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />.Fine. A common enough bonus. What range? Would suggest 30 ft. if aiming for ECL +0, 60 ft. for +1 package.Bonus to Dex, or this, but not both. Inclined to agree with earlier poster- give them a free proficiency with all the stuff they like to throw, and you give flavor, without a lot of extra power.The real heart of their advantages. I like this one. Would also add a racial feat (prerequisite: level 9+) that would increase this to Regeneration 3.Another stylish choice. I like.Straight forward and reasonable.I think you can get it down to ECL +0 while retaining all the flavor (or even enhancing it) by focusing the abilites and transfering some of the advantages into access to racial feats. Such a creature could make for a very entertaining PC, and wouldn't get outstripped by his non ECL companions <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />.9th level human fighter: "Dude, I just added Cleave to my arsenal Sweet."9th level woods troll ranger: "I'm high enough level to start regenerating faster!"9th level human fighter: "Wow! That's cool!"Looking forward to seeing your revisions.</blockquote>
