The '''water troll''', {{monsym|water_troll}}, is a type of [[troll]] in [[NetHack]] and therefore [[revive]]s 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.

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.
