	In the revealed outline for ~~[[Book:Scouting for Trolls\|Scouting for Trolls]]~~, we learn that he was, as a pebble, a [[Ankh-Morpork Scouting (and possibly Urban Survival) Federation\|Boy Scout]], as Trolls understand the word. As a respectable businesstroll and community representative engaged in good works and charitable donations, he is keen to sponsor an expanded operation with a similar philosophy, aimed at the young people of all sentient races.

Disrespectful thugs rapidly become rockeries and jewellery. He also respects [[Commander Vimes]] for being unbribable and honest.
