Troll Biology TL;DR

Since the original post is a bit of a slog, here's a TL;DR or breakdown of it:

EYES: - Irises start off grey during wrigglerhood due to melanin pigment obscuring blood color. The melanin clears as the troll reaches adulthood, revealing the blood color. Albino trolls may not have this dark pigment and young albino trolls have normal flushed eyes.

- Sclera (Whites of the eyes) contain chromatophore-like cells (Like cuttlefish skin) holding red pigment. When relaxed, they give the sclera a yellow tint, but when the troll is angered (or the eye is damaged) the sacs contract to produce a red color.

NOSE: - Trolls have keener senses of smell than humans, as a holdover from early evolution when pheromones were used to communicate.

MOUTH: - Trolls have fantastic bite strength compared to humans - Teeth are difficult to knock out, but when they do a new tooth forms in the jaw and pushes its way up. This can result in crowding and misaligned teeth; This is also why it's important to assure the entire tooth is removed when one is broken or dislodged.

EARS & HEARING: - Trolls have a keener sense of hearing, able to hear a broader frequency range than humans. Landdweller ears function more like humans' overall. - Seadweller ears are considerably different. The inner ear bones contain organs for sensing sound, gravity, and movement, giving them better spacial awareness than their landdwelling counterparts. There is also no ear-hole and no liquid like human/landdweller ears; Sound travels directly through the bones and organs. Moving the fins shifts the bones and helps the seadweller hear. - Seadwellers may also have lateral lines, extensions of the inner ear which appear like rows of tiny pits or spots which help sense movement.

SKIN: - Skin is considerably thicker and more elastic than in trolls, potentially deflecting attacks or allowing the outer skin layers to reseal and heal quickly to prevent external blood loss. - Skin is smoother and softer to the touch, though can callous like human skin. - Scar tissue is fairly flexible and less prone to developing in deeper tissues, so it doesn't impede trolls as much.

SKELETOMUSCULAR: - Highbloods have very high muscle density, much stronger bones, and strong connective tissues, moreso than lowbloods. This grants them greater physical strength and fortitude, as weapons don't pierce as deeply and their bones don't break as easily. - Extra strong bones in highbloods also helps prevent avulsion fractures from muscle pulling against bone if their strength is overused; However, there's also a subconscious barrier which prevents most highbloods from using their full strength so they don't hurt themselves. (Nebale has overcome this barrier, making him 'stronger' than the average violet at the cost of his fuckin bones) - The dense musculature also helps insulate against the cold. In lowbloods, their high body temp is their line of defense against cold external temperatures.

PULMONARY: - The troll heart sits closer to the spine, with the major arteries traveling up and down the spine so they're directly protected by it. The bones of the spine protecting the heart are particularly thick and sturdy. - The troll pulmonary system is overall fairly sturdy, with blood vessels being thicker and larger. This can result in catastrophic blood loss when major vessels are injured, but they seal up readily which can mitigate blood loss. - Major vessels lie deeper within the body, so they don't show through the skin and are better protected by the dense muscles. This gives troll skin a more uniform grey color, though the small capillaries can still widen and draw blood close to the skin, resulting in flushing. - In seadwellers, the pink pigmentation in their blood collects salt and prevents it from reaching the cells, allowing seadwellers to adapt to both fresh and salt water. The high salt content provides some protection against illness and toxins. - The low body temperature of highbloods makes them more resistant to illnesses, while the higher body temp of lowbloods makes them more prone to illness. Since lowbloods are already so warm, when their body gets even warmer from a fever, it can start killing off delicate tissues like in the brain. - Lower caste hues have proteins in their blood which stabilize psionic output, meaning lowbloods have more stable and easily controlled psionics. - Troll blood pigment proteins are produced in excess so it can be found in various functions of the body- Tears, genetic material, scar tissue, ect..

LARYNX & RESPIRATORY: - The troll larynx can produce a wide variety of sounds; Hisses, clicks, purrs, growls, and roars. It isn't fully developed in very young wrigglers and develops as per the sounds the wriggler tries to mimic- Typically speech and the sounds their lusii makes. So the exact sounds a troll can make vary depending on their early life. - Landdweller lungs function more or less like human lungs, but in seadwellers the lungs are multi-purpose. They serve as swim bladders and help push water across the gills when underwater. - In seadwellers, the gills are the primary oxygen intake (As in this is where all the oxygen-collecting cells are). Lungs just move things around. - Seadwellers also have mini heart/lung-like organs by the gills to push water or air in and out without aid of the lungs. Again, lungs just help keep things moving and aren't a necessary function. - Gills have gill rakers; Bony structures which capture debris and keep them from getting too deep into gill tissue.

DIGESTIVE & OTHER MAJOR ORGANS: - Abdominal organs are protected by a very tough, flexible lining. It helps prevent damage from slashing and piercing injuries. - Troll stomach acid is massively potent to the point of having antimicrobial properties, allowing trolls to just kinda eat whatever with no real issues. - A small section of the intestines just past the stomach is dedicated purely to neutralizing their stupidly strong stomach acid so it doesn't cause damage. This organ also helps neutralize toxins and prevent foodborne illnesses. - The liver filters toxins and binds them to blood pigment proteins and removes them via urine. Troll livers are highly efficient and powerful organs, making trolls more resilient to poisons/toxins/other bad stuff that makes it to the liver.
