I think I know what a troll is, but I would appreciate a good definition. I would define it as a harmless yet repulsive twisted little fuck. Is this accurate? Let me know. Is there a classification of twisted fuck that is worse the troll? Like an ogre classification? Tell what you think.
What is a troll and is there something worse?

A troll is a large, smelly, regenerative humanoid who causes a whole lot of trouble by being annoying, rude, repulsive ect. An ogre is quite a bit larger, has yellowish white skin instead of dark green or brown and is not as smart as a troll.

On a BB a troll is someone who posts either as a guest/unregistered or as a regular user with the intent to hurt someone else.
Something worse is a troll who knows how to hack into your computer.
I'm an admitted troll.

I don't think trolls have the required intelligence to hack a computer system (not that it's all that hard really).
An orc is a humanoid with grey or green skin and large fangs. They are smelly, larger than humans and tend not to be very smart. Their hair is sparse and very thick.
A kobold is a small lizard like creature with a mean disposition. They are tribal, and are moderately dangerous in large groups. Alone they are cowards, and will run from any larger foes.

Gygax. Pick up anything written by Gary Gygax. He's the leading authority on such creatures.

www.pantheon.org is a great place to learn about various mythical creatures and how different they are in different mythologies.
Lord Emu, I recently read a book that had kobolds as small humanoids that liked milk and could find various metals in the earth. It was called "The Spirit Ring", it was pretty good. I go by the DnD descriptions out of habit from being a gamer.

The fun thing about the D & D books is they have influenced many moderen games. I want to get more books but the prices are being raised which sucks. I want the Ravenloft book which is about 30 as it is. I also need some of the books for special classes.

The class books for 3E as published by Wizards of the Coast are a rip-off. Do not buy them. Ravenloft is an excellent investment if you wish to purchase it. However, I don't know how long it's publisher will support it.
If you can get a group together you can pitch in for books and share them communally. That helps cut down costs.
