Hallo.
Question:
I read up on Forest Troll lore... And, I don't think I'd like my new Troll char to be -completely- Forest Troll, but I will if I have to. Am I allowed to have a part Forest Troll, part Jungle Troll?
I know that they're of two different Troll tribes. The Darkspear and the Revantusk, but it doesn't mention anywhere that they -hate- one another.

Well, what you need to consider is that the Darkspears have lived in wherever random islands in the sea for God knows how long, whereas the Revantusks have lived in the Hinterlands. Until both of them joined the Horde, I doubt they'd have had any contact in the past.

Not to mention, All Trolls hate, basically, everything. Especially other Troll tribes and Elves. They like Orcs and Tauren, but that's about it. Everything else is hate.

If trolls didn't have their abundance of hate, they would rule the world...

It's not really allowed, and I don't want to actually come out and mention it. But you could have one parent from one bloodline, and one from the other.
I'm sure you know where I'm going with this. Have the character raised by the mother of course, and they could be more heavily into that side of the family, while not really knowing the father, but having an overwhelming hatred for the father's bloodline, after what happened.
Of course, that could temper over time, and he/she could become curious about that part of his heritage.
Since it's not allowed to actually claim stuff like this, I wouldn't go that far, but I'm sure it's ok if you just kind of left certain things blank, which obviously most of us would know what it is, without actually talking about it or discussing it.
Apologies if I've offended anyone with this suggestion. I'm not saying this particular half-breed of troll could occur very often, but things being the way they are, it could happen, and trolls should be able to interbreed.

They haven't know each other for long enough...
...Aaaaand they'd probably sooner kill each other than have sex, as Kretol said. They don't even look physically similar (Forest Trolls being bigger and therefore not of the same standard of beauty).

I'd say just go with a Darkspear with a green tinge on his flesh and give him a more... Well, primal nature, as well as a more savage outlook and physical prowess. That's the equivalent of half-Revantusk half-Darkspear.

I rather carefully avoided coming out and saying it >.> But I wasn't implying that they "hooked" up just for a quickie. It was more like a non-consent sort of thing.

Trolls do have a practice of stealing the wives of rival tribe members they kill, but the two main species of Troll live essentially a continent apart. Apart from that, again, they're physically dissimilar and have a deep upwelling of hate for even those Trolls that look exactly like them but are part of a separate tribe.
Also, no Forest Trolls and no half races.
