Line 16:

Great green [[Demon family|goons]] that love to smack and smash anything and everything with their clobbering clubs. Goofily garbed in garish dark magenta fluffy outfits, they're not to be underestimated in battle despite their foolish fashion sense. They often make deadly desperate attacks that can down an adventurer with their great spiked clubs. Sometimes they'll attempt to '''[[Shove]]''' a single enemy right out of battle and out of action.

In {{DQM3}} and in the [[Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake|HD-2D]] remake of ''Dragon Quest III'', boss troll's pink lips were changed into green lips, likely to avoid the resemblance of a blackface. The decision to alter the monster's design has been met with considerable backlash the world over in light of [[Akira Toriyama]]'s passing on March 1 2024, with many pointing out how insulting it is to compare the grossly inhuman features of the creature's face to those of any real-world ethnicity.

The Boss troll's role in the story is the same, though it's revealed to be a servant of Baramos, confirming a detail from the novel, CD Theater, and item story. As with all boss monsters, the false king burns through status ailments one turn faster than a plebeian beast would.
