The water troll, T, is a type of troll in NetHack and therefore revives after being killed. It walks on water, and therefore cannot be permanently killed by dumping its corpse into the water.
Water trolls are not randomly generated; the only natural water trolls in the game are two of them that appear in one version of Medusa's Island.
Encyclopedia entry
It wasn't that the troll was _horrifying_. Instead of the
rotting, betentacled monstrosity he had been expecting
Rincewind found himself looking at a rather squat but not
particularly ugly old man who would quite easily have passed
for normal on any city street, always provided that other
people on the street were used to seeing old men who were
apparently composed of water and very little else. It was as
if the ocean had decided to create life without going through
all that tedious business of evolution, and had simply formed
a part of itself into a biped and sent it walking squishily up
the beach. The troll was a pleasant translucent blue color.
As Rincewind stared a small shoal of silver fish flashed
across its chest.
