Anchor trolls are a type of aquatic troll somewhat common amongst the islands of the Wounds. These opportunistic scavengers usually dwell along oft-traveled routes between the islands, waiting beneath the waves for a passing vessel to sink, after which they converge to eat whatever it might have been carrying. Though their unique ability to put themselves in a state of near hibernation means that they need relatively little food to survive, some are still driven to more active methods of acquiring sustenance, seeking out stopped vessels and pulling them down into the water using their anchor rodes.
