Final Boss of Jennook

Idea and initial writeup by Spark's player pobbes

The unusual title "Final Boss" is held by Of the Forge the Spark, the unofficial leader of Jinnook, the largest settlement on the Silversong Moon. The large town has been mostly settled by goblins, green and blue, and is an anarchic society of gangs and warbands. The power struggles are constanct, but all the chiefs and warlords listen to the Final Boss.

When the Big Boss is a good guy, like Ol' Spark, then having an autocrat in charge only makes sense for the short term. The problem comes when Sparky finally kicks the can. Will the next Boss be as smart or as patient? Since they're startin' from scratch, I say they should set up a hybrid parliamentary democracy with healthy political parties and a sensible division of power. What? I majored in political science in War College. Instructor ain't the only smart one up here!

The various factions of Jennook on the Silversong Moon have a murky heirarchy and no clear leader amongst the assorted cults, gangs, and tribes. In theory, the head of the Expeditionary Forces, Of the Blues the Revenge, commands the largest group of unified goblins on the moon. But even Revenge defers to one authority, the Final Boss of Jennook, Spark himself.

Even though he is considered the founder of the town, is a friend of the goddess Jenevieve, and is the "smartest goblin in the world", Spark is no tyrant. He prefers to spend his time tinkering with extraplanar junk or scheming up new engineering projects for the goblin facet of the 20-sided moon. But he is the final word among the goblins. If you can get him on your side, no other boss will stand against you.

Look, I'd rather be trying to backwards engineer a lazer sword or figuring out a totemic gravity sky hook. But I brought all these goblins here and I'm responsible for 'em. They're smart gobbos, they'll figure out how to lead themselves one day.

Aw, my little gobbo is all grown up! He's such a schemer and a dreamer, but he'd defend Jennook from the front lines down to the last gob. I mean, there may be a dragon or two around to help... and that laser cannon he salvaged from the Hidden Moon...

The contents of Spark's pockets are a WMD waiting to happen.

It's more fun for me nowadays because I have one player commenting and writing his character's quotes. Another player/DM is finally putting his world on World Anvil and I get to make snarky in-character quotes on his stuff!
