BlueCollarTrolls
Automated troll labor through Norse wards. Bind tamed trolls to lumber, quarry, and farming wards to automate resource harvesting and base defense.Blue Collar Trolls
Hire friendly, hard-working trolls to run your Viking settlement! Blue Collar Trolls introduces specialised Norse Trolwards that recruit local trolls into honest labor. Bind a troll to a ward, feed them from their dedicated larder, and let them chop trees, mine deposits, tend crops, haul items, or defend your perimeter.
A Valheim BepInEx 5 plugin built on Jotunn.
Trolwards
| Trolward | Role | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| Lumber Trolward | Logging | Fells trees, splits logs, and stacks timber within ward radius. |
| Mining Trolward | Quarrying | Breaks rocks, ore deposits, and collects mineral chunks. |
| Farming Trolward | Agriculture | Plants, cultivates, and harvests crops in prepared farm plots. |
| Sorting Trolward | Logistics | Collects loose dropped items and organizes/merges nearby storage chests. |
| Defense Trolward | Security | Patrols the ward radius and thrashes any hostile monsters that intrude. |
Each ward includes an integrated Larder (food container). Trolls require feeding to maintain energy and reputation—keep the larder stocked with hearty food to keep your blue-collar workforce happy and productive!
