Scrags found in fresh water are smaller
than normal trolls and have heavy scales.
Their claws are less formidable,
but their enlarged lower jaw bears many
small,
very sharp fangs.
Up to 3 different opponents can be attacked
during a single melee <edit?> round.
Scrags regenerate as do trolls
(q.v.) <edit> but they do so only when immersed in fresh
water.

Scrags found in seas && oceans
are at least as large as ordinary trolls.
Their skins are thick and heavily scaled.
<compare to wereboar>
Some few (10%) are intelligent enough
to further protect themselves with armor made of shells and sharkskin or
similar substances;
such protection gives an effective AC
of 1.
The forelimbs of the scrags are shorter
and weaker than those of ordinary trolls,
but the saltwater variety has developed
a huge maw and numerous fangs to make up for the loss of talon attacks.
Regeneration: As do freshwater scrags,
saltwater scrags regenerate
when in their saltwater element.
