Arena Messages

- Your familiar is pretty lousy at hide and seek, since he can't stop singing long enough to stay hidden.
Notes
- Was first seen on November 29th, 2006, when it was equipped by Jick.
- December 2006's Item of the Month from Mr. Store.
- The Troll restores either HP or MP at the end of combat 50% of the time.
- HP and MP are both determined by the familiar's weight: As stated here, it is anywhere from ((weight*.8 )/2) to (weight*.8 ).
- The Troll is actually less effective for recovery than 40% of a ghuol whelp since it only recovers either HP or MP at the end of a combat, rather than both, as the ghuol whelp does. The range of HP or MP restored is also slightly less than 80% of the Ghuol Whelp's range.
References
- The name of this familiar is a play on a line from the traditional Christmas song Deck the Halls, "Troll the ancient yuletide carol". The lucky Tam O'Shanter message refers to the line "Don we now our gay apparel" from the same song.
- "Carol of the Belches" is a play on the name of another traditional Christmas song, "Carol of the Bells."
