Is There Any Story or Novel Like This Out Yet?

I had an idea for a premise of a story, but I'm not going to write it if there is a similar one. It would feature an online "troll" who metamorphoses into a literal ugly troll from Norse mythology/folklore due to a sentient online curse. I know that (awful?) movie Beastly is about this (and, of course, the novel on which it's based) is sort of like that, and curses like this are common in dark and/or romantic fantasy (there would be no romance in my story), but has it ever involved trolls in particular, to your knowledge?
 
I seem to recall seeing an indie book that's somewhat along those lines except I think it's litRPG. Like Harpo said though, just do it your own way. Plenty of stories start off with the same or similar concept, but execute it in very different ways.

Just did a little internet searching, and yup, I remembered correctly. It was a litRPG series by S.L. Rowland called Sentenced to Troll.

Still, loads of room to go in your own direction with that idea!
