Goblish

Half-sized Half-breed

The Goblish are an interesting race, a result of Goblin heritage from one of their parents. There's numerous known half-goblins, ranging from half-elf, half-dwarf, half-orc, and even occasionally half-dragon. One born as a Goblish tend to favor goblins more than their other mixed heritage, but still very much favor both races. They tend to be shorter, stockier folk, though otherwise vary greatly based upon their mixed race. A half-goblin half-elf for example, still has the soft facial features of an Elf, the pointed ears, the fair hair, but will be noticeably shorter and more thickset. When creating a Goblish character, work with your dungeon master to determine what race you are mixed with, and what discerning features will come from the parents.
