Just a brief question...

Does anyone have a good Gif/Tiff/Jpg/etc...
of a Troll.

Not one of those wossie Disney Trolls that are the
scourge of the 2 inch fairy-tail gnomes.

*not that I have anything against them just that I
don't want a picture of them.*

Thanks
Gary C.

It has been said that Trolls are meant only for combat. While this may be
true in many cases a player in one of my games has found a new use for the
Troll in the group.
He has a completely Mundane non-cybered troll with unmaxed attributes who
goes by the name of Pete the Pick. This guy is the Mafia's leading Pick Man
(that is a hitman who kills predominately with picks)now your probably
thinking of some hulking brute carrying an enourmous pick with very little
intelligence. That would be a mistake. Pete has a BIG reputation in the
criminal community, and he knows it, and he uses it. Everywhere he goes he
has mafia men coming out of the woodwork just to be seen talking to Pete
the Pick. Yakusa scramble and all other syndacates quake, cos when Petes in
town, no one feels safe.
Needless to say Pete is the center figure for our whole campaign, he is
the motivator and back breaker and most importantly, he does it in STYLE.

Confusion to our enemies!!
