Soon after settling in Ej, the halflings befriended the forest trolls who live in the Forest of Vieshlar. While not naturally aggressive, the trolls do love a good fight. Armed with massive clubs and very hard to kill, the trolls are the ideal assault troops, able to smash through enemy lines like a battering ram. Some trolls have consented to allow halflings to ride on their shoulders and crew a small swivel gun to give them some firepower. These guns have been designed and tuned by Ej’s Gunnery Sergeants, each one a keen inventor and marksman, eager to test their latest prototypes on the battlefield.
