Goblin

Goblins are short, flat nosed creatures with green skin; they stand about 4 feet tall and weigh about 150 pounds. They have fangs and reputedly poisonous blood. Goblins are on the whole unpleasant and brutal creatures. Although some folk have known non-Evil goblins, or even intelligent ones, these examples are clearly exceptions. Most goblin folk are honorless brutes who want to kill, eat, sleep, and pass gas.

Hobgoblin

Hobgoblins are larger cousins of goblins. They are far more aggressive and organized than their smaller relatives. Hobgoblins stand 6 1/2 feet tall. Their hairy hides range in coloration from dark reddish-brown to dark-gray, with dark or red-orange skin. Hobgoblins are a military breed. They live for war and believe strongly in strength and martial prowess as the most desirable qualities in individuals and leaders alike. Hobgoblins prefer to be warriors and assassins, and their clerics are fond of both Raije and Fatale.

Bugbear

The biggest and strongest of the goblinoids, bugbears are even more aggressive than their relatives. They live by hunting any creature weaker than themselves. Bugbears are large and very muscular, standing 7 feet tall. Their hides vary from light yellow to yellow brown, with thick coarse hair from brown to brick red. Their eyes resemble those of a savage animal and they have wedge-shaped ears, long sharp fangs, and a bear-like nose with a fine sense of smell. Bugbears prefer to ambush opponents whenever possible and are experts at moving silently, especially for a large race. They have two goals in life: food and treasure. They are often found commanding Goblins and Hobgoblins, whom they bully mercilessly.
