{{Section-Stub}}
These purple, [[Demon family|porcine]] powerhouses fail to bring anything new to the table, but they boast bolstered bulk compared to their predecessors and are all too happy to show it off in battle. Its position as the strongest of the trolls was eventually usurped by the [[Terror troll]], though it also finds itself in battle with the [[Stout troll|Stout]]s of [[Mortamor]]'s army over who's the top [[Troll]] in [[Troll]] society. They have light blue lips and tongues to set them apart from their fellow purple-skinned cousins. Their bestiary description in {{X}} states that great trolls are descendants of a royal family that existed in ancient times.
