Goblinoid
Maglubiyet was truly the Conquering God. He stiffens the spines of cowardly Goblins. He rouses Bugbears from their lazy slumber. He sets the thunderous step of Hobgoblin legions. Maglubiyet took three species and turned them into one people.
In bygone times the goblinoids were distinct from one another, with separate faiths and different customs. Then Maglubiyet came and conquered all who stood before him, mortals and deities alike. Gods and heroes who wouldn't bend to his will were broken and discarded. He put his foot on the neck of mighty Khurgorbaeyag, bound the will of intractable Hruggek, and forced sadistic Nomog-Geaya to fall in line, and then absorbed the essence of them all. What the goblins, the bugbears, and the hobgoblins were before their gods became Maglubiyet no longer matters. Now they are, first of all, followers of Maglubiyet.
On the surface, goblins, bugbears, and hobgoblins are as different as Halflings, Dwarves, and Elves. Each species
has its own tendencies, outlook, and culture. But Maglubiyet's hand joins them together, just as he made all their other gods parts within a greater whole. When one kind of goblinoid encounters another kind, the two groups don't see one another as strangers or foes. Instead they know that by the fact of their meeting alone, Maglubiyet has commanded them to come together. They know the time has come to form a host.
