==Fighting night trolls==
Night trolls are somewhat-challenging opponents in battle, but not particularly dangerous if encountered alone: since they are fairly large, wrestling them is quite difficult though still possible, and they are a bit harder to harm with blunt attacks than humans. In addition, they are immune to pain and do not need to breathe, so they cannot be made to pass out and will not suffocate.

Night trolls can, rarely, wield one of the butchery [[tool]]s generated in their [[lair]]s, like boning knives or meat cleavers. Usually they will attack unarmed and can, due to their large size, cause serious harm with their punches, kicks and especially bites. In fact, bites are their most dangerous attack, so if the night troll in question has a weapon, you'd better harm its respective arm or spine last, since weapon attacks always have highest priority for them, while their most common weapon choice is a mere small knife. Be especially wary of trolls and other night creatures that also possess horns.

They can die from blood loss, brain damage, beheading and bisection (cutting off the lower body). They never wear clothing or [[armor]], and, therefore, are quite susceptible to having limbs cut off - hacking and slashing attacks work remarkably well against them.
