Hobgoblins

Hobgoblins are the larger cousins of goblins. Towering at least six feet tall, these burly brutes have an easy time bullying their smaller kin around – until an even larger bugbear comes around, at least. Like goblins, they lead a tribal life.

Unlike goblins, however, hobgoblins are disciplined and live for warfare. They are canny tacticians, and can often be found leading goblin or orc warbands. Some also enter the service of humanoid warlords as mercenaries. Adventuring hobgoblins often have this background, as they’re skilled warriors and rarely have any other place in human society.

Hobgoblins usually dress in bright, colourful clothes and leather. They keep good care of their weapons, relying on physical prowess in combat. Most of them worship Maglubiyet, god of goblinkind.
