Trollocs are a species of Shadowspawn (creatures formed by the Dark One) created during the Age of Legends.

These creatures are known to have made up a large portion of the Dark Ones army and are a cross between humans and animal stock similar to Orcs.

Trollocs are able to communicate with the local tongue, however, their primitive side decreases their intelligence across the board, and therefore, they require supervision on the battlefield.

Similar to J. R. R. Tolkiens Uruk Hai, the antagonist during the War of the Shadow in The Wheel of Time, the Dark One, was hellbent on creating super soldiers for his army.

Using the skills of the Forsaken Aginor, human genetics were mixed with intelligent and sturdy animals, such as boars and eagles, to produce an advanced breed.

While early creations of the Trollocs were looked on as a failed experiment, the offspring of this new species eventually resulted in the birth of more sentient Trollocs known as the Myrddraal.

The Trollocs were introduced during the three-episode premiere of The Wheel of Time when Moiraine and Lan were ambushed.

Using a combination of Moiraines magical abilities and Lans swordsmanship to mitigate the Trollocs ambush, a telekinetic lightning storm was then produced.

The Trollocs arrival at the Two Rivers foreshadows a much larger threat looming and fans will have to wait and see the full force of the Dark One later on in season 1.
