Origins & History

A Goblin can come to be when an orcish and a dwarven line mix. Shortly after the wars against the darkness ended, many goblins were born, as the orcish warriors retreated into the safety of fastly constructed dwarven strongholds.
People were surprised that the Goblins carried little similarity to their parents. To this day many Goblins think that another god has a hand in their creation and ensured that they became so unique. A large portion of them makes the Schalk responsible, worshipping them for their wonderful gifts. Others on the other hand, tend to worship a more mysterious figure, which they claim is much older than the Schalk and apparently connected to the Fey Realm.
As crafty as a dwarf, as determined and enduring as an orc - a very dangerous combo.”
