So lore-wise we know the Ogres were cursed into being the stupid lumbering oafs we know and love but IDK anything about the origin of the Trolls. While in Guk I noticed this wall art which looks like Trolls wearing Egyptian-like clothing. Did the Trolls originally build Guk? Were they Kangz at one point?

It's hard for trolls to get around in there. Did they grow after they built it. Or is it cuz they are so, unintelligent, that they built it too small for them?

Guk was a troll city. Trolls built it and trolls lived there under the warlord Ykesha. All the art and design and such is troll.

Frogs invaded, drove the trolls out, and then found the curse of Ykesha waiting for them down below.

In a similar vein to how did the massive trolls fit within the small confines of Guk, the various pathways coursing through the Feerrott do not seem "fit" for ogres, but more for the various lizards throughout the area and the nearby Cazic Thule temple. Yet Oggok is the main city, ogre sized.

I have visions of the Trolls telling their city-building slaves "just build it, me no want answer questions!" ... and then a few years later the Trolls discover that they built the city "slave-sized", and a whole lot of slaves wind up being brutally murdered.

why did the trolls make so small rooms, some rooms you can hardly get a troll into.

The game models were changed between when these zones and artwork were built, and release. That's the simplest answer. The zone designers working in silos might also be part of it.

fits the lore

also explains another reason why the trolls lost their city to the frogloks, who could traverse the tunnels with ease.

adds up. make it canon.

In other news, so apparently there was a Froglok hero named Hoptor Thaggelum who drove the Trolls from their city of Guk, but he was cursed by a Troll Shaman / Innoruuk and forced to raise and army of undead frogloks as The Ghoul Lord.

EQ did the Lich King first.

The Lich Toad.

I find you can safely ignore the opinion of anyone who uses the word "cuck" unironically.

Which would include you, then. Doh!


In any event, apologies for my abrasive demeanor earlier. A mix of alcohol and other drugs put my already limited patience in abeyance. My one better angel couldn't stop me from passing out before I softened the language a bit.

You could cut off ever appendage I have and I'd still be ten times the man you will ever be, and even before I even left preschool.
