Troll Mountains

Troll Mountains is a canonical Mountain / High Peak located in the Sunset Vale & Western Frontier, prominently surveyed on the regional map spanning From Sunset to Sembia.

Overview & Canon History

Centuries before humans settled the lands of Amn, the Troll Mountains were home to an actual civilization of trolls. The humans eventually slaughtered the trolls nearly to extinction, but they were unsuccessful in wiping them out entirely. The majority of the trolls' treasures, including magical items, were never taken and remain deep in the mountains. The trolls from the Troll Mountains have historically been a problem for Amn. In the northern reaches of the mountains, the trolls are sometimes joined by goblins and orcs. The infamous ancient red dragon Balagos also makes his lair in these mountains, in the Smokespire volcano.
