Troll Mercenary
Troll Mercenary
    "So Mr. Corp, are you ready to get down to business?  I trust everything is to your satisfaction?  You had no trouble tracking down my references?  I do hope my former CO didn't inflate my accomplishments too much.  I wouldn't want you to have unrealistic expectations about my performance.  Really, those paramilitaries are vastly overrated.  True I did get a purple heart and a medal of honor for that action, but I can't take the whole credit.  I had a good commander who had a very simple philosophy.
    " 'Keep behind the Troll.'
    "Oh yes, he wasn't shy about praising my tough hide when it saved his.  So naturally you see why I'm worth the price.  Well then if we're in agreement let's talk about the business at hand.  You want me because I carry a big gun and I make a nice big target for the Mage to hide behind.  That's right.  Isn't it great when we all have a perfect understanding of the situation?"
Commentary:  The Troll Mercenary has a tendency to be more professional than other Trolls.  Instead of learning how to fight on the streets he learned to fight on the battlefield.  Trolls from the Sprawl are used to being the biggest hardheads on the block.  Where the Troll Mercenary comes from main battle tanks are the biggest, meanest things around.  This means that the Troll Mercenary relies more on skill and intelligence to get the job done.  Brute strength is reserved for once the door has been busted in by the big guns and the fighting gets up close and personal.
