Goblin Cutter Tactics
Goblin cutters—like all goblins—don’t fight fair. They gang up
on a single enemy and quickly take advantage of goblin tactics
to achieve flanking positions. If it dawns on them that they’re
losing the battle, they flee, hoping to live to fight another day.


Goblin Blackblade
Level 1 Lurker

blackblade’s previous space as a free action.

Str 14 (+2) Dex 17 (+3) Wis 12 (+1)
Con 13 (+1) Int 8 (–1) Cha 8 (–1)
Equipment leather armor, short sword

Goblin Blackblade Tactics
Goblin blackblades have more stomach for melee than most
goblins, preferring to flank a single enemy to gain combat
advantage. When bloodied, they use their sneaky power to
trade places with fresher goblins.


Goblin Warrior
Level 1 Skirmisher
Small natural humanoid XP 100
Initiative +5 Senses
Perception +1; low-light vision

The goblin warrior can move up to half its speed; at any point
during that movement, it makes one ranged attack without
provoking an opportunity attack.
Great Position
If, on its turn, the goblin warrior ends its move at least 4 squares
away from its starting point, it deals an extra 1d6 damage on its
ranged attacks until the start of its next turn.
Goblin Tactics (immediate reaction, when missed by a melee
attack; at-will)
The goblin shifts 1 square.

Alignment Evil Languages Common, Goblin
Skills Stealth +10, Thievery +10

Con 13 (+1) Int 8 (–1) Cha 8 (–1)
Equipment leather armor, spear, 5 javelins in sheaf

Goblin Warrior Tactics
Goblin warriors would rather fight at range, using great position to
deal more damage with their javelins. In melee combat, they use
goblin tactics to maneuver into flanking positions. Once bloodied
(or once they’ve seen several of their comrades cut down),
warriors tend to flee and leave allies to fend for themselves.

Small natural humanoid XP 125

target it has combat advantage against.
Goblin Tactics (immediate reaction, when missed by a melee
attack; at-will)
The goblin shifts 1 square.

at a goblin and misses, the goblin usually skitters away to start
its next turn at a safe distance.

Str 10 (+1) Dex 15 (+3) Wis 13 (+2)
Con 14 (+3) Int 9 (+0) Cha 18 (+5)
Equipment leather robes, hexer rod

Goblin Hexer Tactics
The goblin hexer uses lead from the rear to turn nearby allies
into meat shields while it casts vexing cloud around itself
and its closest allies and enemies. It then targets an enemy
defender with stinging hex and uses its blinding hex on foes
making ranged attacks. When another goblin within 10
squares uses goblin tactics, the goblin hexer uses incite bravery
to allow that goblin to make a free attack.

Goblin Skullcleaver Tactics
Uncharacteristically brave, goblin skullcleavers charge boldly

rage, attacking without concern for their own wellbeing.

Goblin Lore
A character knows the following information with a successful
Nature check.
DC 15: Goblins are cowardly and tend to retreat or surrender
when outmatched. They are fond of taking slaves and
often become slaves themselves.
DC 20: Goblins sleep, eat, and spend leisure time in
shared living areas. Only a leader has private chambers. A
goblin lair is stinking and soiled, though easily defensible
and often riddled with simple traps designed to snare or kill
intruders.
