Mul'Karal Troll
Trolls are creatures that are barely considered sentient. Most of the time they hunt and kill whatever they can to survive another day, as an animal. Some, have showed signs on intelligence and there is a chance of 1-500000 trolls that one will be born as intelligent as a human.
Their massive bodies and muscles make them perfect mobile battering rams, while their teeth are sharp and meant to crack even the hardest animal shell.
Trolls can be seen almost in every environment due their natural resistance to heat or cold. All these things are true for both normal troll and Mul'Karal Trolls.
The main difference between theses two troll types is that one is magically capable while the other is not. Even so, Mul'Karal Trolls are considered even rarer than an intelligent Troll because while some Trolls get born Mul'Karal they are not born intelligent and vice-versa meaning that in order for a Mul'Karal Troll to be considered "true", it must be both intelligent and magical capable which is very rare.

Racial Abilities
( 1 ) Natural Armor: Every Troll has hardened plates which cover their body that can withstand arrows and swords swung by normal humans. The head is the only thing not covered in these plates which makes it the only way to kill a Troll in close combat without outnumbering one or tricking it.
( 1 ) Natural Strength: Trolls possess considerable strength and feats of their strength are well known by children and adults alike. Trolls have been seen fighting with a tree in their hands (using it as a club) or throwing big boulders that could level entire buildings.
Abilities
( 4 ) Elemental Manipulation : William is an Elemental Wizard and years of study have allowed him to become above apprentice in level with almost every Elemental magic. He can easily make fireballs, make water whips or make an air shield around him but what he is considered master of is Earth Magic as his natural affinity is earth.
( 3 ) Earth Armor: William covers his already armored by nature body with an 10 inch layer of metals, wood and whatever there is in the area (up to 3m around him). This makes him something akin to a tank and while close combat is not one of his skills, the mass of his body is increased (up to 60% more than his mass) makes up for any slip-ups. While "wearing" the earth armor his total speed is lowered significantly but he can run for a few minutes without problem in the armor.
( 4 ) Sword of the Elements: William combines all of his powers to create the sword of the Elements for a few minutes in combat. This Sword is made by combining all the elements and 'thus it becomes highly effective in combat. The handle of the sword is made out of strong earth, the hilt is made from air and the blade was a combination of fire and water kept in check by William's power.
Talents
( 1 ) Survival Skills: William has long learned to survive off the land and he is a skilled tracker. He also knows which plants are good to eat and which will kill you.

( 3 )Spellbook: The only item William has with him is his master's spellbook. The most prized possession he has. Inside the spellbook there are spells that are either too complex for him to understand or are not meant to be understood by anyone just yet. The spellbook itself uses complicated magic to teleport itself back to William in case it is ever stolen or forgotten.

William is a small troll by troll standards and while most people still don't discern the different between a Troll and a Mul'Karal Troll, he walks with his head up and a smile on his ugly (by human standards, not his own) face. He wears a wizard's robe that was specially tailored by his master for him. The robe is a striking blue and it was enchanted so that the color looks as if it was constantly moving.
Underneath the robe there are numerous scars on his body that show exactly what bad life he had before eventually being saved and taught by Master Matthias.

William is a friendly guy in most aspects. He likes to talk and doesn't care that people don't usually trust him as most Trolls are brutes. Most of the times, William, can be found with his spellbook in hand reading what his master left for him to learn and eventually master.
William is considered not Troll-like by those that know him and trust him as a friend. He is loyal to his friends and is the kind of guy that will help anyone that needs help even as most are afraid of him. In cities that allow him to enter, he can be seen giving money to beggars and more than once he stopped robbers and killers.

William was born inside a cage. Hunters captured his mother when she was pregnant with him and for most of his childhood that's all that he knew. Trolls were used as labor by many people after they were trained and were often sold to the highest bidder in need for laborers that could work for days without tiring.
As he grew up and "domesticated" by the hunters, something became apparent for the hunters as William started showing signs of intelligence higher than for a normal Troll and that's when the head hunter understood what William was. A intelligent Troll. The next day William was put in chains and brought to the market in order to be sold for someone in looking for intelligent and strong labor. As fate would have it, Master Matthias was in town that day and sensed the magic in William as soon as he saw him. He brought William and gave him his name and after a few months, eventually taught him how to speak in the common language.
William at first didn't know what to make of his new master but as his master taught him more and more about etiquette, history and geography he learned to trust Matthias and treat him as a friend. Years later, Matthias explained to him that he is a rare breed of Troll capable of magic and soon started showing him how to cast magic. Even more years passed when William could cast even the most basic spell but it was proof that he indeed was what Matthias told him he was and soon devoted all his time in learning magic.
Matthias was 50 years old when he first brought William and now, as years passed he was 91 when he felt that is was his time. William mastered Earth magic a day before and was still practicing it when Matthias summoned him and told him the news. William was sad that his master and friend was about to die but he understood that humans lived less than Trolls and knew(and feared) the day when his master would die. After a few words of wisdom, Matthias gave William his greatest treasure. His spellbook. Full of spells that not even Matthias learned to cast yet, knowledge of many lifetimes were hidden in the book and it was William's task to learn it all.
After burying his master William sold whatever he could and left to wander the roads in search for knowledge that would allow him to learn the spells in his book.
