Goblin
Okay, NOW I'm jealous.
These things are weird. I don't like the makeup thing they got going on, it's really creepy. They're all over the Wreckage area, but they've spread out to the nearby kingdoms too. They like dark, closed-in places, so you'll typically find them hiding in caves and abandoned ruins, stuff like that. You'll still see the odd one in broad daylight though.
Goblins don't have eyes or mouths or. Anything, really. But they can still see and hear as well as you can, believe you me. And they're lethal in a fight. Every part of their body is a weapon, so respect their reach.
Stahl's Notes: Contrary to both appearances and popular belief, the thing between their legs is actually their real head. The one on their shoulders is just a decoy.
Their deadliest weapon is actually the whip attached to the false head. It ends in a spiked cudgel that is capable of breaking through three inches of steel. While many other scientists have discounted it, yes; that horrible noise they make IS laughter. They are one of the few creatures that I would genuinely refer to as a demon.
They do not need to eat, and yet they kill for sport. They'll waltz into a village completely outnumbered, and break every person no matter who or what they were before. To this thing, they are all just targets.
This brazen behaviour is only accented by the fact that they use crude pigment the colour of fresh blood to make facsimiles of faces. Nobody knows why they do this.
