Hobgoblins

Hobgoblins are a larger, stronger and smarter form of Goblinoids than Goblins, but not as powerful as Bugbears. Though hobgoblins are not necessarily evil they are prone to violence and hot tempers and find it difficult to be truly altruistic. When provoked, which is often easy, hobgoblins are vindictive creatures who take glee in causing pain to those that injured them. Those hobgoblins who overcome this nature often do so because of the rewards they find in serving good, rather than evil.
