Fantroll-Purgatoryās Revamped Guide to Alternian Trolls
āSo since the Troll Call has released a veritable buffet of new trolls to observe, I, TR from fantroll-purgatory, have decided to revamp our old guide to Alternian troll fashion. Iāll also be taking into account new information presented in the Extended Zodiac and will be treating those 288 signs as the known canon ones from here on out.
Up top, if you read through this guide and feel Iāve missed something critical, please donāt hesitate to reach out!
We will start with general conclusions about Alternian fashion (bearing in mind, of course, that we still have a relatively small sample size from which to draw conclusions) and then do a quick breakdown by caste. Letās go!
It looks like all trolls of the same caste have the same blood color, so you would use our alpha trolls as a color guide precisely. This means that your cuspblood fantrolls would be classed as mutants and would be treated as such.
Contrary to our prior assumptions, it seems that it is not mandatory for trolls to display their symbol in the center of a black shirt. Given that over half of the existing trolls do so, we can conclude that this is common. Furthermore, we only see two characters who display their symbol on their leg rather than their shirt or jacket, so such a thing is uncommon. There is only one troll who displays their sign on a pin that they have attached to their jacket, so that is creative but allowed.
Shirts may deviate from black, but if they do then they are typically white, grey, or blood-colored.
You donāt see trolls using a lot of color outside of their blood caste until you hit jadeblood or higher (and even then it starts with subtle accents). A notable exception is goldbloods, who use the colors of their vision two-fold as liberally as they would their blood color.
If trolls are using an accent that is neither their blood color nor the blood color of another troll, it is mostly in shades of red or pink that are different from rust and fuchsia.
Some trolls wear skirts, and some wear long shirts, but few trolls wear dresses.
Female trolls whose eyes we can see mostly have eyelash definition while male trolls largely do not.
Some of female trolls wear makeup in black or their blood color (and one of them wears undereye makeup in their blood color). Only one male troll wears makeup, so we can ascertain that Alternian gender norms fall roughly in line with Earth ones.
All trolls who have visible eyes have bags under them.
We see a few trolls with their hair in ponytails and buns! It is uncommon, but possible. Female trolls are also just as likely to have short hair instead of long hair, and male trolls seem to largely stick to short hair with just a few exceptions.
Only 3 trolls have color in their hair, and no trolls below jadeblood color their hair. Hair color is very uncommon.
Horns tend to be the same length unless broken (though goldbloodsā second set can be shorter than the first).
Horn decorations are not common, with only two characters who have respectively pierced and painted theirs.
Weāll move on to the specifics below the cut so as not to clog up your dashboard!
