Mulraargo, also known as the Tar-Skinned Troll, is a unique troll that lurks within the wilds of Xen'drik.[1]
Description[]
Mulraargo appears as a troll with skin as black as an oil-slick and covered in boils and sores that constantly ooze a viscous sludge.[1]
Tactics[]
He stalks his prey deep within the bogs and fens of Xen'drik, where sightings of him bring fear to explorers from Stormreach. Mulraargo is extremely stealthy for a troll; some say he has the ability to melt into a puddle of inky ooze, allowing him to sneak up on his prey and execute shocking ambushes, and escape without leaving a trail. One moment he is a foul creeping sludge, the next a massive and savage monster, clawing and biting. When he comes across an expedition, he loves to pick off its members one by one, taking them away to devour and leaving the survivors in ever-greater fear of the next attack.[1]
Abilities[]
Unlike other trolls, as the result of being tainted by some foul magical pollution, Mulraargo has the ability to quickly melt down into a pool of creeping black tar-like sludge and reconstitute himself just as fast. In sludge form, Mulraargo can move underwater and through narrow gaps. In either form, he can grab and engulf his victims, by pushing them into his own body and drowning them in the thick sludge forced down their throats.[1]
Unlike regular trolls, he is immune to harm from acid, not vulnerable to it, and even has acidic claws.[1]
Mulraargo is also an expert tracker and hunter and a natural swimmer. His sludge form makes him highly stealthy in bogs.[1]
Also unlike other trolls, Mulraargo speaks both Common and Giant, and possesses darkvision out to 90 feet (27 meters).[1]
