Ice Troll

"Stalks the icy wastes in search of food, and things to punch."

Ice Trolls are horrid carnivores found in all climes, from arctic wastelands to tropical jungles. This variety stalks the frozen waste lands of many icy planets. Most creatures avoid these beasts, since trolls know no fear and attack unceasingly when hungry. Their frame appears bulky and muscular, but trolls possess surprising dexterity. Their arms and legs are long and capable. The legs end in great three-toed feet, the arms in wide, powerful hands with sharpened claws. The Frost Trolls’ rubbery hide is colored a mottled ashy white, or putrid gray. A writhing hairlike mass grows out of their skulls and is usually a matching color to the creatures skin. Their dull, sunken black eyes possess powerful vision, able to pierce the darkness of night.  are capable of incredible strength, able to rip and tear through most of the frost-lands most brutal predators. Incredibly territorial, once an Ice Troll has claimed an area, it will attack any creatures that dare wander into it's domain. Ice Trolls most commonly claim desolate caves located in high peaks and wintry mountaintops. From these caves, the Ice Trolls venture out at night, seeking prey and monsters to hunt. An Ice Troll will searching far into the tundra's plains when descend on a hunt, covering many miles before the rays of dawn push the Trolls back toward their sheltered lairs. All trolls eat anything they can catch and devour, chasing without fear for their natural regenerative abilities make them all but impervious to most threats.

Ice Trolls possess a melee attack which can freeze players in place for several seconds, allowing other monsters, such as Agrobats and Frostops (also found in Ice Caves) to do extra damage. Also capable of hurling large boulders at foes at a distance, these rocks are often seen moments too late by prey - moments before being crushed. Additionally, the Ice Troll carries with it many Frost Pincers, which it throws or drops at the sight of prey to support in it's hunting - the creatures natural abilities to freeze targets assists in the Trolls hunting. Lastly, the Frost Troll can use it's frozen environment to it's advantage, hurling several snowballs in rapid, deadly succession. These projectiles not only slow a targets movements, but are thrown with enough force to

**Ice Trolls** are found around and inside of ice cave dungeons, which can be found on any planet tier IV or higher.

## Luna's Lab Notes

~ This creature's assets are pulled from the game Tales of Eternia - which the rabbit like creature appears as a monster called the "Geo Monster". The original sprite-sheet used can be found here: https://www.spriters-resource.com/playstation/toe/sheet/4743/

~ Capable of smashing the ground with enough force to break blocks - enough force to break blocks I had thought protected by a generator in my lab. Insightful -

~ This dungeon has a large pool of water which contains several Frostops, some aggressive fish and 2 or 3 Ice Trolls. A Rocket Launcher with homing ability helps a lot here.
