Only the mightiest of trolls hope to become kings or queens among their kind. Becoming a monarch requires a combination of luck, skill, brute strength, intelligence (at least compared to other trolls), and perhaps a helpful magic item to give an advantage compared to others.

TACTICS
Before Combat The troll monarch drinks his potion of bear's endurance only if he expects a truly worthy challenge to his rule.
During Combat The troll monarch closes with his opponents as soon as possible, attacking the strongest-looking melee combatant. He uses burning hands from his cloak to disperse and damage groups of enemies, but otherwise uses melee attacks and rend.
