Trolls, like other meta-humans and para-normal critters can only exist when there is a high enough mana level for their species. The apparent low weight of trolls can be explained away with this. All trolls whether mundane or awakened have 2 low level adept-like abilities - Reduced Weight and Renewing Joints. These always-on powers have a drain on the troll's mind, resulting in the some of the modifiers to mind-related attributes.

I am asking this, because I'm currently detailing a bunch of stuff for trolls, ranging from portable toilet seats to BFTGs and would like to see how people cope with trolls in their worlds.
