Introduction
One of the basics of Goblin-hood is to be greedy,short and ugly, one way you might be going around doing this is picking the dwarf perk. to be ugly you might want to randomly generate a face, then make your nose LONG altough you probably wont see it(You'll see later). Hair and Beards are not recomended but you are welcome to do it











Another important aspect of the goblin is their green skin. we don't have that, so instead you can put on the PD mask and make it light green.




The final important aspect of most goblins are being scrawny bastards, to do this do 0 fat, 0 strong, but 100 skinny. that should complete the goblin look
Perks N' Stuff
To be like most goblins you need to be short, as covered in the first section you should pick dwarf, that is the main one. If you have extra points you should pick stun aswell. dodge is very optional, you can pick it if you want but it is not necessary.
Militaristic Ranks (A Divider)
Yes, Goblins have a military I will show you the ranks and what part they have in the Gob Nation.
Grunts
The low-lifes. Poorly Equipped. They don't do much, but they do enough to become a problem, then that evolves into death. Every goblin starts here, some end here, others rank up.
