mountain troll
Rocky highland brute
A mountain troll is a large, brutish creature from Scandinavian folklore, said to dwell in rocky highlands and caves.
Unlike the smaller, mischievous trolls of other traditions, mountain trolls are typically depicted as enormous, dim-witted, and dangerous—turning to stone in sunlight.
The creature appears frequently in fantasy literature and games: The party encountered a mountain troll blocking the pass.
