    What's the creature we, dwellers of forums and chatrooms, love most dearly? Yeah! You get it: troll. Trolls make this week's creatures at the official site. Here's a clip:

    Mothers of Faerun have long told fables of the horrid trolls, and the terrible things they do to children that misbehave. The truth is even more dreadful than the tales. Trolls are savage, rubbery grey-green skinned giants with a voracious appetite for flesh. Their hunger, combined with their ability to regenerate and recover from nearly any injury, make trolls fearless in battle. Many seasoned adventurers have made the mistake of turning from a fallen troll, only to meet their ends impaled by the troll’s sharp claws. The only way to ensure a troll is dead is to burn its remains with fire or acid.

    Sweet, aren't they?

    Read the rest at the official site.

    Does that mean that trolls in NWN2 will actually need fire or acid to be defeated? I hope so. That certainly wasn't the case in NWN; you could just hack them to pieces.

    Yeah but their damage reduction *and* huge AC was sickening sometimes. I can only imagine what it feels like to rogues and Finessed fighters who have to deal with them. It struck me that I didn't have to carry anything with fire or acid damage just for the purpose of finishing them off like in BG or IWD games.
