Asgelli Goblin
On wargback they ride, swift and deadly as the biting wind.
The Asgelli Goblins are a formidable group of goblins who inhabit the frigid tundras to the north of the Caliphate of Ibra. Known for their aggressive and warlike nature, they constantly engage in territorial conflicts with one another and any other daring travelers who venture into their frozen domain.
Appearance and Culture
Asgelli goblins are characterized by their pointed ears, sharp noses, and wiry builds. They usually cover their dark green or grayish skin with animal furs for warmth and camouflage. They have adapted to the harsh environment of the tundras, allowing them to survive for extended periods where other Limaewould quickly perish. The tundras are relentless and unforgiving, but the Asgelli Goblins have adapted well to their harsh environment. Their knowledge of the land, coupled with their natural resilience, allows them to withstand the brutal cold and other challenges that this frozen wasteland presents. With a semi-nomadic raiding culture, Asgelli Goblins are always on the move, seeking resources and targets for plunder. They are adept at taming and riding fierce wargs, using these deadly creatures to launch swift strikes against their foes. The Asgelli goblins have a less individualistic culture than their cousins from orr and elsewhere, working together and relying on one another for survival. Among the Asgelli goblins, leaving one's tribe is akin to suicide.Raiding and Conflict
Asgelli Goblins are fierce warriors, constantly at odds with one another and the neighboring regions. The Tundras echo with the clash of their weapons and the howls of wargs as they vie for dominance and valuable resources. Their raids on nearby settlements, especially the Sultanate of Alik Gabir and the territories of the Qittari, have earned them a fearsome reputation as one of the most aggressive goblin factions outside of the Blighted Lands. They pose a significant challenge to any who dare to venture into their unforgiving territory. Perhaps out of a common love of violence, Asgelli Goblins and wargs form powerful bonds with one another. Asgelli goblins raise and train wargs from an early age. The wargs serve as loyal mounts, companions, and formidable assets in their raids.The First Asgells
The Asgelli Goblins trace their roots back to Orr through an event known as The Scattering. The goblin artificer Rankleshanks crafted a massive explosion on the mechanized island of Orr, inadvertently propelling numerous goblins across the sea to the distant land that would eventually become known as Asgellion. Having arrived on this new and untamed continent, the Asgelli Goblins quickly established themselves as the first Limaecolonizers. They spread quickly across the plains and hills of their new country but mostly avoided the northern wastes until to coming of the Ibrans, who conquered most of the continent and forced the goblins north. The Asgelli Goblins hold deep animosity toward the Ibrans, whom they view as invaders encroaching upon their ancestral domains in the south. This historical enmity fuels the ongoing territorial disputes and raids that define the tumultuous relationship between these two cultures.
These traits are in addition to the traits of all Goblins.
