[List of appearances]

The Troll Warriors are a faction from Castle (2007) and were introduced in 2008. They fought against the Crown Knights and Dwarves.

Details

The trolls are in possession of an extensive array of siege engines and even a large ship. There are two versions of trolls: the smaller minifigure-sized ones and the bigger trolls that are made from special pieces.

They are armed with pitted scimitars and carry rectangular shields.

The logo of the trolls is an elongated skull that appears on their flags and on their shields, as well as on the sails of their ship.

Story

The trolls's main adversaries are the Crown Knights and the Dwarves.

The trolls were hired by the Evil Wizard to help attack the Crown Knights. They were employed as foot soldiers. In return, they got the King's gold. The Crown Knights don't know this.
The trolls started to attack the Crown Knights about a year after the attack of the skeletons. Trolls are cowards (unless accompanied by a big troll warrior) and are not too bright, but they are really strong. The giant trolls are even stronger, but even less bright. They've also been known to attack their own warriors. These warriors can take a few more wounds before going down. Troll Warriors and a green Giant Troll appeared in the animated LEGO DVD The Adventures of Clutch Powers. The Trolls are evil, but the Giant Troll serves the King because of what the previous king did for him.

Notes

  • On many sites you can buy a Troll Warrior, though his name may be shown as "Orc". The word "Orc" was not the name LEGO gave to the minifigure, rather it was due to the fact J.R.R Tolkien has made that name "Orc" as one of his creatures in his mythology. Orc minifigures have been made in the theme Lord of the Rings.
  • The two troll warriors have a different helmet than all the other trolls in the sets.
