I've been debating the Trollocs as Large creatures for awhile...they dont really seem to have ANY of the characteristics of large creatures, i'm not sure they even meet the height requirements...the most I'd give them is the Powerful Build ability from the Half Giant...or maybe I just get a different impression of them than is real.

I thought that trolloc weren't large creatures either, until recently. I bought a comic book copy of the artwork for the soon to be New Spring comic, which RJ has been very strict about. In it there is a height chart for Lan, Moiriane and a trolloc, and according to that a trolloc would be a large creature. I'm assuming that RJ okayed that height guide...maybe not.

Just a thought anyways.

They stand "8 to 10 feet tall." That's pretty much large.
