Goblinoids are a group of humanoid races that share a common origin, culture, and religion. They are often considered as monstrous and evil by other races, as they are driven by a ruthless and warlike god named Maglubiyet. The most well-known goblinoids are the goblins, the hobgoblins, and the bugbears, each with their own distinct traits and abilities.
Goblins are the smallest and most numerous of the goblinoids. They are cunning and cruel, but also cowardly and servile. They live in tribes that are constantly competing for resources and status. They use traps, ambushes, and stealth to overcome their enemies, and they enslave any creature they can dominate. Goblins have a knack for tinkering and scavenging, and they often use improvised weapons and armor.
Hobgoblins are the most organized and disciplined of the goblinoids. They are skilled warriors and tacticians, who form large armies and conquer lands. They value strength, honor, and loyalty, but also show no mercy to their foes. Hobgoblins have a strict hierarchy based on merit and martial prowess, and they expect obedience from their subordinates.
Bugbears are the largest and strongest of the goblinoids. They are savage and brutal, who enjoy hunting and killing for sport. They rely on their brute force, stealth, and surprise to overpower their prey, and they take pleasure in spreading fear and terror. Bugbears have a loose social structure based on individual might, and they often serve as shock troops or elite guards for other goblinoids.
Goblinoids have a long history of conflict with other races, especially elves and dwarves. They have invaded many realms and regions throughout the ages, often under the banner of Maglubiyet. They have also faced internal strife and rivalry among themselves, as well as rebellion from their enslaved races. Goblinoids are a formidable threat to any civilization that crosses their path.
