The Barbarian and the Troll centers on Brendar, a fierce warrior determined to vanquish an evil demon who's imprisoned her brother. Joining her on her quest is Evan, a bridge troll with a hunger for adventure.

After Evan convinces Brendar to bring him on her quest to vanquish the evil demon, they cross treacherous terrain to confront bizarre and magical creatures and encounter an eclectic puppet cast of wacky characters.
