Going for the Ankles: Playing an MPMM Goblin
Languages – You can speak, read, and write Common and Goblin. Nimble Escape – You can take the Disengage or Hide action as a bonus action on each of your turns. Once you use this trait, you can’t use it again until you finish a short or long rest. Whilst relying on your darkvision, you can only see colors as various shades of grey.įury of the Small – When you damage a creature with an attack or a spell and the creature’s size is larger than yours, you can cause the attack or spell to deal extra damage to the creature.
Playing a goblin gives you the following traits:Īge – Goblins reach adulthood at age 8 and live up to 60 years.ĭarkvision – You have darkvision out to a range of 60ft, allowing you to see in dim light as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. The remnants of this empire are extremely skilled and disciplined, their weaponsmiths are even superior to the greatest artificers of the land. The biggest example of this is in the world of Eberron, where goblinoids as a whole were the dominant empire for thousands of years before losing their grasp after winning a costly war. Whilst in a lot of worlds goblins are seen as lesser creatures, or outright evil, in others they have a much different place. Whilst many goblins have fallen under the evil influence of the god Maglubiyet, they originally served in the court of the Queen of Air and Darkness, and many strive to find their own path in life, free to lead the adventurous life their heart may desire.
Originally hailing from the Feywild, goblins can be found in every corner of the multiverse and are often found amongst their goblinoid kin, hobgoblins and bugbears. Goblins are a subterranean folk, making their homes in caves and caverns although, they don’t have the same mining connotation similar-living races like kobolds do. Most recently an updated version was published in Mordenkainen Presents: Monsters of the Multiverse (MPMM), this is a separate version and does not overwrite the original, it just presents a different way of playing a goblin using more current design conventions. Iconic and mischievous foes of low- level parties for the last 45+ years, goblins are well known by all players but, not all players may know they can be a goblin too! The goblin player race option was originally published in Volo’s Guide to Monsters ( VGtM) under the ‘Monstrous Adventurers’ section before being republished in Eberron: Rising from the Last War (ERLW) and Guildmaster’s Guide to Ravnica (GGR).
