There were exactly twelve advantages in being a Woodland Ogre, over a Tree Troll. Nine of them involved the harassment of travelers, and shaking them down for loose change. Two, concerned the fabrication of weapons of war, for which there was a treaty with the Grass Elves regarding fair trade and material usage. The final one regarded certain reproductive issues. Tree Trolls tended to… eat their partners. It wasn’t entirely intentional, but somehow, in the heat of the moment, the female Tree Trolls had a tendency to bite the heads off their mates, laying fertilized eggs in the males’ necks.
