Goblin (CL 1/3 / 100 XP)

Nasssty little goblinses! These little brutes are pained by the light of the sun, and so generally stay underground except at night or on days of heavy overcast. Goblins have an amazing capacity for malicious ingenuity – some tricksy specialized goblin warriors are listed below as well.

Goblin Mob (CL 3 / 1,840 XP)

This is a mob of 6-12 goblin warriors on a rampage. Being in such a mob makes them much braver than normal, but fortunately no smarter.

Trip Goblin mobs attempt to pull down their victims and pummel them into submission. Any target that takes swarm damage from a goblin mob is immediately subject to a trip attack at +11 vs. their Reflex defense. This does not provoke an attack of opportunity.

Goblin Lobber (CL 1/3 / 100 XP)

This vicious little grub closes to 6 squares to maximize his Point Blank Shot, hurls a pot of alchemist's fire at enemies, then runs away in order to ready another pot and do it again. If engaged in melee, he will generally try to flee.

Skills Perception +4, Stealth +13
Possessions 3 pots of alchemist's fire, mace, javelin, leather armor, light shield.

Alchemist's Fire Any creature that the goblin lobber successfully hits with its alchemist's fire attack catches on fire (see the normal fire rules). Readying a pot of alchemist fire requires two swift actions, and the goblin lobber is carrying three pots. When these are expended, the goblin lobber will flee. The alchemist fire attack has the following range bands: PB 0-6, S 7-8, M 9-10, L 11-12.
Oops A goblin lobber that rolls a natural 1 on his alchemist's fire attack drops the pot in his own square, immolating himself and any ally within 1 square.
Sunlight Vulnerability Goblins move -1 persistent step down the condition track in full, direct sunlight.

Goblin Rabble (CL 1/6 / 50 XP)

These are the (even more) unwashed masses of a goblin warren, as opposed to the more commonly encountered warriors. It's not really accurate to call them noncombatants, however, as they will attack if they think they can get away with it.

Goblin Trapper (CL 1/3 / 100 XP)

These annoying pests hurl a bag of wet and sticky goo made from monstrous spider glands and web fibers that act similarly to tanglefoot bags at their foes, so that their allies can then attack at range with impunity.

Spidertrap Sack A target successfully hit by the goblin trapper's spidertrap sack is entangled, temporarily moving it -2 steps down the condition track, cutting its speed in half, and making it unable to run or charge. The entangled creature may break loose from the webbing by making a DC 16 Str or Acrobatics check or by doing 6 hp of damage with fire or a slashing weapon.
Sunlight Vulnerability Goblins move -1 persistent step down the condition track in full, direct sunlight.

Goblin Worg-Rider (CL 3 / 1,840 XP)

These are the rock stars (or perhaps the fighter jockeys?) of the goblin world, elite warriors and scouts. Worgs are intelligent beasts, and as such a worg and its rider are more like partners than a master/pet relationship.

Init +2; Senses Perception +5, Darkvision

Defenses Ref 19 (flat-footed 18), Fort 16, Will 12

Improved Initiative Goblin worg-riders may reroll Initiative checks, but must take the second result even if it's worse.
Sunlight Vulnerability Goblins move -1 persistent step down the condition track in full, direct sunlight.
Surefooted Goblin worg-riders do not suffer penalties for difficult terrain. They may confer this benefit to their mount by taking a swift action each round to make a DC 15 Ride check.
