Nice cave trolls?
Earlier my younger brother asked me which of the cave trolls was the nice one. He of course meant the one that wanted to let Bilbo go, Bill I believe. He continued by asking me why Bill didn't want to eat Bilbo, and my answer was he wasn't hungry. So he follows that up with, "So the cave troll in Moria was hungry?" I found it amusing, and explained to him the difference in books. But it set me thinking. What kind of creatures were the cave trolls in the Hobbits? Did they only kill things for food? How were the cave trolls in the LotR different? Did they just kill for the sake of killing? Were the Hobbit trolls smarter? I mean, you never see LotR trolls talking.
