Characteristics
Trolls are burly demons with ruddy brown skin, a large pair of pointed ears, and maws lined with sharp fangs open to reveal their long lolling tongues. They are clothed only with a simple brown roughspun tunic worn over their shoulder of the same fashion stereotypically worn by cavemen and wield spiked oaken clubs in their hands. The brutes have a tendency to waste their turn by licking their clubs or even fall over trying to make an attack, but they are capable of landing brutal hits if their swings connect. In their original appearance, trolls had dark orange skin and lacked their familiar clubs, but in later appearances, their skin has changed to a dark shade of brown.

Troll is a B-rank monster of the Demon family, eventually becoming recruitable during the "Militant Mentor Mindini's Boot Camp" event. It will join the party in the Militant Mentor Mindini's Boot Camp: Troll level and can be fully awakened by either completing the Troll Super Training level at any difficulty or purchasing Troll Crystals in the event shop.
