Udyrfrykte

An Udyrfrytke

The Udyrfrykte (also spelled Uderfrykte or Udefrykte) is the name given to members of a bloodline of legendary trolls. Initially thought to be a unique individual, there are now three known trolls that have been recorded in history under the name.

The two normal (but still ferocious) ones are believed to be the offspring of the Uderfrykte Matron, also known as the Horror of Dive Rock. While her origins are unknown, it is said trolls were more impressive in ancient times, and her ancient lineage has plagued the Nords for centuries. Common traits between her offspring include glowing green eyes, brownish fur, and a preference for lairing in ice caves.
