Skyrim: 5 Things They Never Told You About Trolls

Skyrim is a game with an abundance of various creatures and inhabitants. Perhaps one of the most ferocious foes the Dragonborn will ever have to encounter are Skyrim's trolls. Massive, brutish beasts, trolls lurk in nearly every type of environment on Tamriel. Be it caves, forests or mountain tops, Skyrim's a land FULL of trolls. But what secrets are these characters hiding and what does the game not tell us? Well, that's what we're off to learn today. Sit back and relax as we explore five things they never told you about the trolls of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim.

"wood elves can only eat meat"
me as a wood elf: *eats 48 cabbages in a middle of a fight

[grantparker]

I feel like there’s a missed opportunity to say “Elder Trolls” somewhere in here

[naufaltaufiqurrahman]

I like when he says
"Starting off"
"Next on the list"
"Coming at number three"
"For four spot"
"And finally"

[Lin-rhhn]

Dragonborn: *exists*
High hrothgar troll: so you have chosen death

[GlennSkywalker]

When ever I see and fight a troll I say “they have a cave troll”

[rosarantala]

"Wood elves can not cut down trees" Faendal: get a load of this guy

[fatpenguin]

imagine using the wild hunt just to become a slaughterfish.

[karenscapy]

We all know the hardest enemy at the beginning of Skyrim was the troll near High Hrothgar.

[loadings]

6: The troll on the steps to the greybeards scared the hell out of me. God i hate that troll

[darkprophit]

One thing they never told you about trolls is that they're all descendants of my mother in law

[falinestixiaolong]

6 : They always manage to find their way in the youtube comments section.

[martijn]

Dragonborn at maybe level 10: started: the way of the voice

*also the bloody frost troll that will mess you up real quick*

[valshades]

A level 4 dragonborn headed to High Hrothgar
Snow troll: You know the rules and so do I

[thehowlinggamer]

"Or heck, maybe trolls just spring out of the ground like plants!"
Yeah, I caught that 2 towers reference...

[PersonOfRandomnesss]

Why do people think trolls are dumb?
They have opened their third eye

[REIDAE]

If trolls existed before the merethic era, then the theory of trolls being descended from wood elves doesnt make a whole lot of senses

[simonmercuri]

Welp might as well share this with everyone else here. I'm currently playing as an Orc that is an usual stealth archer and alchemist, but thanks to the Ordinator Perks mod I have invested perks in the Speech tree and now I'm a bard that can distract his enemies with a lute or a flute, making them dance. My follower is a Dawnguard Armored Troll and it takes care of all the enemies I have entranced (since when I stop playing the music enemies regain control) since they get their armor rating reduced. This is what I call a Troll Charmer, and this build is awesome!

[joyfuldude]

I have dubbed the troll which protects the path on Greybeard mountain “Hank”
I freaking hate Hank.

[stevefilms]

“Horrifying, with muscular bodies, multiple eyes, and fur everywhere” most mammals are now offended

[charleyedwards]

The difference between the big troll and the little one you displayed beside eachother, is a totally reasonable amount of change to happen via insular dwarfism.
