Trall

Avg Height Male: 7-8 feet, Female: 6'5-7 feet
Avg Weight Male: 400-600 lbs Female: 200-350 lbs
Life span: 250-300 turns
Skin: Clay brown, clay red, black, more or less all earthy tones. Most Trall have patterns such as spots on the majority of their bodies.

Trall without a doubt are the closest one can get to an "invulnerable creature". To kill a single Trall takes many people, another Trall, or the strongest of warriors. A Trall's hide can easily turn away swings from blades and shatter blunt wooden weapons, these rules apply to almost all of a Trall's body. The more ideal areas to strike are farther up, the eyes and mouth for example are good place to lash at (if you are tall enough to get to it). In addition to the orifices of the face, a rider with a spear could send a Trall to it's knee's with a POWERFUL stab to the collar bone area or the neck.Site accredited to this race
