"I done forget more than you'll ever know!" - Some Goblin on paper

 

 

Initially, Goblins were not known to exist around the eras of peace but at the birth of the book of shadows, they emerged like a breath of stale air! Initially founded as a minor incantation made to serve the caster, the said caster found the follower, in drunken stupor, to be incredibly defiant and in a spit of rage once told the creation to "fuck off" and so the group did. While Goblins of this era have no clue what happened to the caster that gifted them life, though they assume him to be Kauhl, a hefty supply of mead made them happy, fruitful little things! Eventually, the alcohol increased, resulting in an ample supply of goblin-kin! Somehow bound to Elsgadir, they remain blissfully ignorant all across the lands. Poking and prodding at any lad or lass that might have heavy pockets or in hopes to find a discount on wine.

​

Physical Appearance

​

Goblins are small goblinoids that many considered little more than a nuisance. They had flat faces, broad noses, pointed ears, and small, sharp fangs. Their foreheads sloped back, and their eyes vary in color from red to yellow. Their skin color ranges from yellow through any shade of green to a deep blue; usually, all members of the same tribe shared the same colored skin. Goblins were typically dressed in dark leathers soiled by poor hygiene and colored in a similar range of tones to their skin. Goblins usually stood between 3'4" and 3'8" and weighed about 40 to 55 pounds on average.
