[QUOTE="GameOgre, post: 6624969, member: 57914"] My game world has the Troll as a major race. Trolls were a noble and powerful race that ruled vast portions of the world thousands of years ago. Most of the giant ruined statues that still dot the landscape are of troll champions ect.. The trolls however challenged the Gods(well Goddess really, she would eventually became Loth) and were crippled with a curse that haunts them to this very day. A full 25% of all Trolls births result in a Cursed Troll(The Accursed). These are the degenerated Trolls for the Monster Manual and they mostly breed only other degenerated Trolls. The Trolloc Empire still continues however and though greatly reduced in stature and power(mostly reduced to one major city and the surrounding lands). Player characters can play Trolls but I need to convert it to 5E. I think something like this might work. +2 To Con and a +1 to any other one Stat other than Charisma. Darkvision 60' All Trolls are proficient in History. Trolls have advantage/resistance verse Poison saves. Trolls have disadvantage verse fire saves. Not sure what one to use here. Trollish Regeneration- Trolls may regain hit dice for short rests twice per long rest. or Trollish Regeneration- Trolls may (as a bonus action) heal 1D4+con mod/level once per long rest. I dunno,it seems off to me. [/QUOTE]
