A Sprinter's Guide to Goblins was a book that dealt with various types of goblinoids and suggestions on how to avoid them, penned by Colin Meringue and published sometime in or before the late 15th century DR.[1]
Content[]
“
Let's talk goblinoids. Your standard goblin is well-armoured and conniving, and while not the best strategists, they are deadly in bigger groups. Hobgoblins are where the species get disciplined. Smarter, stronger, and as mean as a bag of hedgehogs, hobgoblins are natural leaders for their kin. Bugbears are as tough as ogres, only shrewder, and they can be unnervingly quiet when they want to. Avoid these sleuthy bruisers.
Me? Har!
I avoid 'em all, chum.
Me? Har!
I avoid 'em all, chum.
