Magical Creature Lesson
.:The Troll:.
Ah, who can forget the time Hermione was crying in the bathroom and Harry and Ron saved her
form the troll? As I reread the first book this past week I thought what a great subject!
Trolls!
There are three types of trolls: mountain, river and forest. The troll who was let in to the
bathroom at Hogwarts was a mountain troll.
Trolls are very large, and frumpy looking creatures. The mountain trolls stand up to 12
feet tall and have greyish skin, lumpy bodies, and horny feet. They also smell horrible.
Imagine all the worst smells from gym class plus not so pleasent smells of waste and
excrement.
Trolls speak a language that consists of the rudimentary skills. Mainly, the communicate
with grunts and pointing. They can be taught some English.
Trolls can participate in the wizarding society and are not just dangerous monsters who
terrorize the halls of Hogwarts. They can be trained as security gaurds. It is suspected
that trolls hired by Hogwarts are not mountain trolls.
Trolls aren't magical beings and were hunted at one point in time.
