Goblins of No-Dan-Kar & Ûraken
When dealing with goblins one should never trust appearances. Their prolific race has multiplied all over Aarklash. Wherever you may go, they will already be there before you. When anger takes hold of them, they gather and swarm over their enemy.
A very long time ago the goblins were the Dwarves of Tir-Nâ-Bor's slaves. At the calling of the god Rat they fled while causing indescribable panic. So they founded an empire in the swamps of No-Dan-Kar and then spread all over the continent.
Among the goblins there are an impressive number of inventors. Their species is divided into a multitude of tribes of which most would have a hard time naming their emperor, Izothop.
Scattered, the goblins are a nuisance. United under a common language and under the same banner, they become a scourge.

Army Overview
The goblin army features extreme versatility. With a high number of models often fielded, goblins will almost certainly outnumber their opponent. They have above average initiative with strong & cheap characters & mystics. The army features racial abilities to either enhance its numbers (Reinforcement) or to enhance its survivability (Survival Instinct). However, the army does not have high statistics in any category other than initiative, and goblin players should expect wacky shenanigans and a lot of death in the games they play.

Trivia
- Most of the excerpts from Ûraken’s Treatise on Martial Discipline were inspired by Sun Tzu’s The Art of War.
- A lot of goblin characters' names are puns. Mostly of a scientific nature, some others are references to cultural folk tales or names linked to a specific genre.
