This is a sub-human race of the world. Small, like halflings, hairless and dark of coloration. They are weak, unintelligent, and spineless. With a high regard for self preservation, a goblin will throw his best friend in the path of an enemy. It is just as well that the only thing they're good at is running.

Comments

Goblins have a negative modifier to melee damage. They have little hp, and no natural armor.

On average they will fail their spells 30% of the time and they are subject to a spell cost penalty of approximately 10%. Due to their low int, they will have small mana pools.

Stealth is not good, although they are small sized and have decent dex.

Perhaps their only advantage is their small size, making them valid fusiliers, albeit with a negative archery modifier. Overall, aside from their low TNL they are a very poor race for any task save for rushing to lord to remort quickly into something better.
