Snow-trolls

Snow-trolls may have been a pale subspecies of trolls in Middle-earth that stalked their prey and were adapted to cold frozen environments. 
==History==
Snow-trolls are mentioned only once in Tolkien's works, in reference to Helm Hammerhand clad in white and stalking his enemies "like a snow-troll" during his sorties against the Dunlendings in the Long Winter.The Lord of the Rings, Appendix A, Annals of the Kings and Rulers, II. "The House of Eorl"
== In adaptations==
=== The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power===
In the first episode of The Rings of Power's first season, Galadriel and her companions are attacked by a snow-troll while exploring Dúrnost, the abandoned fortress of Sauron in the wastes of Forodwaith. The creature injures several of the Elves before Galadriel slays it with Thondir's aid.The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Season One, Ep. 1. "A Shadow Of The Past"
===Video games===
*Snow-trolls are depicted in The Rise of the Witch-king, the expansion pack to The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth II, as shorter trolls from Angmar who maneuver quickly and wield large pickaxes. They can also trample enemies, due to their function as cavalry units.
*In The Lord of the Rings: War in the North, snow-trolls are enemies.
*LEGO The Hobbit: The Video Game features a playable snow-troll character in the Big Little Character Pack DLC.
