Goblins

Goblins

• Traits: Cunning, fast, irreverent

• Cultural Values: Trickery as survival, mockery as warfare

• Elven Slur: "Verminkin"

• Self-Honorifics: Sparkbloods, Laughfangs, Rotblessed

• Once enslaved by elves and later orcs—now fiercely independent and culturally explosive

• Live in scrap cities, smoke warrens, and fungal towers—chaotic but ingenious strongholds built from scavenged brilliance

• Consider mockery a sacred act—believe laughter breaks chains and confuses tyrants

• Revere the Rotfather, a mythic trickster who taught goblins to turn decay into power

• Allied with orcs and trolls—often act as scouts, saboteurs, and morale disruptors in shared campaigns
