Could goblins ever form a respectable society, or is that unrealistic?
Depends on the setting.

Well, they're certainly clever enough to form a vaguely modern-like culture.
"Now goblins are cruel, wicked, and bad-hearted. They make no beautiful things, but they make many clever ones. They can tunnel and mine as well as any but the most skilled dwarves, when they take the trouble, though they are usually untidy and dirty. Hammers, axes, swords, daggers, pickaxes, tongs, and also instruments of torture, they make very well, or get other people to make to their design, prisoners and slaves that have to work till they die for want of air and light. It is not unlikely that they invented some of the machines that have since troubled the world, especially the ingenious devices for killing large numbers of people at once, for wheels and engines and explosions always delighted them, and also not working with their own hands more than they could help; but in those days and those wild parts they had not advanced (as it is called) so far."
So I figure they'd probably be like Chechnya. A technically "civilized" nation, but whose primary exports are criminals and terrorists.

>Could goblins ever form a respectable society, or is that unrealistic?
Unrealistic, but not impossible.
Male Goblins spend the majority of their lives either impregnating female goblins, foraging for food or kidnapping the offspring of other sapient species for their goblin mates to raise like reverse cuckoos.
Female Goblins spend the majority of their lives either being swollen and pregnant or compulsively raising children- even the children of other sapient species like a reverse cuckoo.
Goblins that have had their sex drive removed though can be alarmingly intelligent.
>>47862653
>>47862677
>>47862729
What if goblin ladies realized that other races loved stortstacks, so they ran away from their males for a chance at superior mates? A few spells later, and they'd insure that they'd have no male offspring, only stacked, thick goblin girls.
A few centuries later, goblins has taken over the service industry, trying to pay for a higher education or just to attract the attention of a rich patron. A society of college girls that strip to pay for tuition, but green.

nope, decent and functional democracies require at least an average IQ of greater than 90. goblins average IQ is about 80. there are demographics in the US with similar IQs, and the places they live are exactly what you would expect a goblin civilization to look like. different parts of the cites are controlled by warlords and their gangs. gang warfare is a constant fact of life. violence and fear is the currency of power, not reason or merit. massive unemployment, broken families, and non functional education.

While we're on the subject and because I have nothing better to do:
LOTS of solitary sapient species -species that are intelligent but for one reason or another can't tolerate the company of their own kind- often keep small broods of goblins to tend to their needs and wants while they focus on other things. A lot of the time the majority of these goblins or at the very least over a quarter of them are alchemically/chemically neutered. This also has the unintended but happy effect of doubling the life expectancy of a goblin.
-What few intelligent Dragons there are often like to keep Goblins around as minions: alchemists, lab technicians, manage their treasure, to keep pests away from their eggs or to just keep them company since most Dragons are literally dumb animals.
-Cyclopes occasionally like to keep Goblins around since other Cyclopes are often few and far between, often using them as to help them garden, herd livestock or as assistants in smithing, tinkering or masonry.
A lot of the disparity and discrepancies between skilled, intelligent Goblins are created by Dragons and Cyclopes teaching them things.
-Trolls like to throw their ugly children into Goblin dens for the Goblins to raise. The Troll children finally leaving the den when they're strong enough to resist their siblings and parents from physically keeping them at home.
-On the opposite spectrum of things: Some Brothels literally just tend to an artificial den of Goblins that they throw willing customers into.
Only if they eat enough respectable people.

Because goblins have a high sex drive but also are violent, many male goblins die relatively early by violence, stupidity or an unhealthy fascination with explosives.
Because of this, goblins are loosely ruled by matriarch clans, wiser older goblin females leading due to long years of existence. Perhaps the old biddies squabble among themselves and use breeding rights to raise militaries. Perhaps they work together to exile or otherwise inconvenience a male lucky and clever enough to grow old.
In game the matriarchs of goblin clans can be powerful spellcasters or storytellers and diplomats of strong ability.

If we all know then why aren't there nearly enough lewd goblin pics in this thread?
>>47861753
I think the main thing goblins lack is strong central leadership. They could be set up as a WW2 Russia style culture where they rely on numbers for everything, but even if you get enough smart goblins to organize it all, they're all going to die of old age in maybe 30 years.
This inherently makes Goblin society very chaotic, as social changes occur rapidly. Internally, a Goblin society could be doing fine, but externally it looks like a mess.
Just take how in some settings Elves sometimes consider human kingdoms to not be worth remembering, and then scale that relative to humans. Who cares who the Goblin King is if they're going to change government systems in 10 years anyway?
While Goblins can form a complex or prosperous society, I don't think they'd be able to make it a respectable one.
Well shit, I guess they're forever doomed to the brothels.
>>47861753
I remember in Radiata Stories, a PS2 game, where there were 2 races of goblins. The green ones lived in slum city in the desert, were mostly thieves and scavengers, but had a mostly organized society, although small.
Black goblins lived in mushroom infested caves where they ate mushrooms all day, these mushrooms were implied to be narcotic, but were overall stronger than the green ones, were smarter, with some of them even reading books and taming wolves and had basic trading with other magic creatures due to mushroom trading.
I'd say gobling can make a good enough society as long as stealing and being a parasite on other bigger societies isn't a immediate option.
Push comes to shove, they can organize themselves well enough to prosper.

That's far too magical realm.
I read up on the CoC goblins.
How do you control a species like that? They'll eventually out-populate everything, so there needs to be a reliable way to cull the bastards.
Also seems that if you send in adventurers, they'll get pelted with lust potions and your teams will return somewhat embarrassed, since your men ended up rutting with as many of them as they could and your women ended up dropping a litter or ten of the bastards. At least there doesn't seem to be much difference for half-breeds.
Think you could invent up some anti-goblin disease? Goblin myxomatosis? Or will they be smart enough to use their alchemy to cure it?

>That's far too magical realm.
Sure, there's some Magical Realm in there. But there's also some really solid shit regarding the enslavement and domestication of subhuman races. For example:

>Yaojing are about a head smaller than your usual goblin, as they were bred to be companions for the children of ancient royal families, equipped to be both a bodyguard and loving companion. Because of their role, these goblins have been bred to have a much longer lifespan, by about 15 more years on average.
>Because of their closeness to feral goblins, the Yaojing are notoriously hard to train. Expect a lot of repetition before they register a command. Likewise they are very inquisitive getting into everything. So make sure to goblin proof your house if you have to leave them alone.
>Grooming isn't as hard as other goblin breeds as Yaojing can take care of themselves. But you should still overlook their grooming as they can take it to strange places.

You've got to give the more active, working breeds a job to do - or at least a large environment to roam and explore - or else they invent tasks of their own. Patrolling the house and yapping at anyone out on the street, hoarding socks and hiding them under furniture, and so forth. You can try to give them long walks to tire them out, if you have time, but unless you're walking somewhere with lots of interesting things they'll require more mental stimulation to be satisfied.
Don't get a working breed if you live in the city unless you have a permit to take it with you on your daily activities, like a service goblin. Being alert, hard-working, and more intelligent than typical breeds, though, they do make fantastic seeing eye goblins.

Back to topic. Going by traditional goblins? No. While they do have some intelligence to craft certain devices and poisons, it seems that all these tools are built with malicious use in mind.

>>47865822
In this case they're probably naturally gravitate towards councils for leadership, so that the death of one member doesn't have such a huge effect. You'd likely see mountain clans being the most advanced too, as space is at a premium and a strong military would be required to compete with the dwarves.
Maybe goblin society trends towards a caste system. You'd have your rulers, warriors and workers, with gifted metallurgists/alchemists/etc. being pretty much the only social climbers. The military caste keep the naturally chaotic worker goblins in line so that they work without killing each other and vent their own aggression in doing so. It makes for a fairly brutal regime, but is pretty much the only way modern goblins have been able to compete with the other races as otherwise they fall into tribalism and violence.
The council that heads this nation would be made up of those cunning enough to get a spot on it, for the most part, but they also tend to have a high proportion of former military caste members. Certain well respected artisans might get a place as well, if only so they can advise the others on warfare. Membership on the council is often very short lived, due to assassination, but is very rewarding as it brings with it a lot of wealth and prestige.
Occasionally you will get some ruler that manages to consolidate power in his own hands, but they don't tend to live long lives at the best of times, and there's always the old guard willing to pick up where they left off beforehand.

>an average IQ of greater than 90.
An average IQ is defined as 100. It's not an absolute measurement, it's relative to the rest of the populace.
Of course the tests are calibrated so a certain answer set gives you a certain score. But they've had to keep re-calibrating it so the population would average to 100.
If an IQ 100 person today took the test from 100 years ago, they'd score much higher than 100.
As democracy worked 200 years ago, the claim that you need your populace to have a certain IQ score is bullshit. The nice thing about democracy is that stupid people can vote for someone smarter than they are.
>>47861753
>Goblins
We don't have them.
We have Muttfolk, though, which you get from several races cooped up north for a long time with little population flow. Their strange blood makeup makes them unlike any of their 'parent' races, maturing at age 6 but living only 30 years, an unnerving situation for most. They generally have pointy ears and are built like dwarves, with most other facial features being human.
They tend towards extreme law or extreme chaos, and are fairly rare as they tend to stay 'among their own' in the north.

>>47874045
Sauce?
>>47874045
Yeah, that's sort of the point.
They're like goblins, in that they tend to reproduce and mature quickly to upkeep their relatively short-lived and sometimes volatile population, but they're not actually goblinoids, if that makes sense, and they do have their own functioning society.
Basically, they're close enough that I thought it was relevant.
>>47874121
Guacamole, I think.
>>47871497
A council system could work, as would that sort of layered setup. I imagine they could almost pull off something vaguely Roman, minus an Emperor, using their numbers to swell militarily, and using it as a sort of intelligence and discipline test. If you can follow orders and think on your feet, you'll live through it and earn a proper place in society.
They could also use slave labor to fill things in. As you said, Goblins are naturally Chaotic, so they'd be better suited for whipping more disciplined laborers instead.

I think D&D sometimes has it done by Hobgoblin leadership taking over a tribe and getting them organized.
They're still super evil though in that case, so you're looking at organized crime rather than a respectable society.
That said, its a fantasy race. You could easily just make your own setting where Goblins fill in for Dwarves, Halflings, or both.
But the better question is. why doesn't /tg/ MAKE a functioning Goblin society?
I mean, we could probably combine pretty much every Goblin reference and thing we can find (Pathfinder, Labyrinth, Dwarf Fortress, Dresden Files, Discworld, etc.) into one setting with a bit of effort
So Goblins being born in The Pit and sending Seiges out to everyone can exist alongside High Goblins who send Goblin Hookers out to everyone due to being half-elf

I don't think we need to jumble together every Goblin from every setting to make it work. Just figure out what the most basic definition of goblin is so we can build a society off of that and still have them be recognizable as goblins.

Only if you're willing to tweak what goblins "are". Pathfinder may be on the extreme end, with its ADHD cannibalistic sadistic pyromaniac toddler-brained goblins, but it's basically building on the mold all goblins have been forced into in D&D.
Take away that "always chaotic evil" aspect, let them be more than just flesh-eating filthy monkeys skulking in caves, and you'd be surprised.
Heck, I've got goblins in a setting I'm homebrewing who're basically magical, intelligent beings that, crunch-wise, use the Forest Gnome stats.

My goblins have respectable enough society, but there's a very good chance they aren't much like your goblins. If they aren't just dungeon monkeys, you can probably make something with them.

Here's how I like seeing goblins in my setting I currently have going
>Goblins are like kobolds but they live above ground instead of in caves
>They have human level intelligence but live half as long
>They live in small tribes and mimic any larger society around them kind of like a bunch of kids playing at being king
>Most places consider them pests because they are always stealing things to better mimic others
>Because of this goblins are constantly shuffled around, have little culture of their own, and seem more as monsters then people
>Rarely people bring these tribes in and they become second class citizens
I still haven't got to do a goblin 'kingdom' yet in my game I think it'd be a lot of fun.
>Was planning on making goblins in my setting demonic entities, along the lines of Imps
>all these big hipped goblins and ideas for goblin kingdoms giving me other ideas
Now what am I supposed to do?
>>47876136
Half orc waifu protects her man and cooks him stew.
>>47880574
Mix the two. It's the only way.
Fat-hipped Imps with a growing kingdom and aspirations.
>>47880574
Imagine the Imps from Dragon Commander.
Now make them green short stacks.
>>47880641
>>47880676
>Short stack Imps
I didn't want this boner.
Besides, the whole point of them being demons was so the players could have cannon fodder to cleave through without regrets. How am I supposed to do that when they're trying to build a kingdom and are also sexy short stacks?
>>47880749
Many a boner was unsolicited, my friend.
All you can do now is forge onward, commit to your shortstack demon idea, and know that if the players don't cleave through all them, they can't be careless about where they camp, cause, well...they'll be pitching tents in more ways than one.
That imp population ain't gonna replenish on its own.
>>47880749
Can't help you there.
>>47880864
speaking as a player
there's nothing more I'd love to do than to cleave through shortstack demons all day long, if you know what I mean
>>47880749
>How am I supposed to do that when they're trying to build a kingdom and are also sexy short stacks?
They're cock fodder to fuck through without regrets.
>>47880864
I suppose I could always justify it by saying the Imps double as succubi
>>47880896
I know exactly what you mean. And as a GM I'm just vindictive enough to throw them at you; either kill them or risk being a father to several dozen new terrorizing demons.
>>47880998
Yessss...yessssss!
That's right, Anon. That's good...so easy to plug into your campaign, isn't it?

Well I'm not able/willing to put it in my campaign, friend. So be a true hero and do it.
Not for you. Not for me. But for /tg/ and all the folks out there who don't have the opportunity to play such a wonderfully confusing, arguably sexy scenario.

You're not wrong. Human sexuality is strange shit and the fact that we try and cram into very small corners makes my penis very upset.
>>47881644
Bleh. At this point I might as well just run an ERP anyway. I was already flip-flopping on including Pink Dragons from that one thread recently.
Of course, then comes the issue of my RL group not being the place for ERP.

>>47861753
As anons have said before, it depends the setting.
In my setting, I made Goblins the equivalent of Southeast Asians. They work rice terraces and caribou drivers that mostly pursue menial careers. Most goblins live humble lives and enjoy a good party or so after the day's work is done. A few goblins can become the village lore-master or "bard" as translated into common tongue. In times of war, goblins are recruited by the empire into legionary service as scouts and auxiliary forces.
>>47881946
Yikes. Yeah, the "IRL" factor is what would keep me from using the item in my campaign, too.
If that's the case, I'd say either shelf the idea for now or be much, much more subtle with it than I was suggesting.
>>47881972

>>47881824Only if you're attracted to hairy, bearded manlets. I promise I'm hygienic, though.
>>47881880
Oh yeah, definitely. Slick things on/in the pleasure areas causes pleasure, everything else is just culture.
>>47882259
Yeah. I suppose I'll need to save it for an actual ERP and just use my original plan
It's nice to dream though.
>>47874444
>>47874632
I can most definitely say I recognize that picture--the rest is a sort of punk style that is absolutely delicious.
Thing is, I saw it as part of a random InCase collection on Sad Panda, so I can't be more specific. Sorry, Anons.
If standard goblins are out, what about Blues? As in, the psionic Goblin subrace from D&D?
They're much smarter on average, less chaotic, and with their mental powers they could have a big edge on potential betrayal and backstab attempts. They seem like they could work well as leaders for a Goblin society.
I like goblins

What are the features that would make a Hobgoblin?
Specifically how are they different from Orcs?
Would they be more trim and less muscle-bound?
For them to get more love, they need distinct identity
>>47879395
Search your filth site of choice for "Raji".
>>47886382
But he draws pastel animu elves with tattoos, and then just calls 'em hobgoblins and bugbears.
>>47886341
They're taller, stronger, and smarter than goblins but not as big as humans nor nearly as bulky as orcs. Plus they're often yellowish rather than green.
>>47886487
Any base fantasy art to use as a starting point to make cheesecake from?
>>47886525
Nothing good, they're not popular. Just draw a goblin that's 5 or 6 heads tall instead of 4 and color it yellow/orange.
>>47886487
They're taller than humans and almost a bulky as orcs. They really are just orcs-lite
>>47861753
Goblins in my setting are basically the Irish. Have a strong culture that persisted even after they got conquered. So they take a lot from their conquerors culturally, but are still essentially goblin.
>>47886341
Closer to human height, more orangish, and a bit lankier. They look a bit more like off-colored elves, but more rugged.
Hobgoblins aren't very distinct.
>>47886592
And that is why there never will be anything good.
Make a taller shortstack and make it yellow.
So Asian....
Seriously, taller jaundiced gobo isn't inspirational
Why should they be a thing, what nitche do they fill?
Otherwise,
>>47886605
>Orclite
Is alreadt covered by the wide variety of orc porn. Just paint it yellow and stick to the less muscle-bound ones.
>>47886739
Could use 4e Hobgoblins, but they still look pretty Orc-ish.
'Horde of angry evil men with weird skin colors' has kind of been taken over by Orcs.
>>47870667
We're hitting magical realm numbers that shouldn't even be possible
>>47886619
They're more like Roma in mine - often nomadic communities who take it as a cultural mandate to not give a fuck about non-goblins because of a long history of being on the receiving end of genocide, cultural exclusion, and so forth. As a consequence of this, they steal, cheat, and generally keep giving the people who hate them more ammunition to use against them. If something has been stolen, or someone shanked, or a riot started and mischief raised, goblins are a good place to look, whether it's a ghetto, a homeless camp, or wolf-pulled wagons circled outside of town.
>>47861753
I actually like a small twist on traditional goblins:
Yes, they're violent little beasts that die explosively and mate like rabbits, but due to their sheer numbers 1/100 goblins that are born are actually quite intelligent. These smarter goblins eventually aggregate together and form their own society deep in the forest, but other races never know this simply because they never meet--they only ever see the miles of feral goblins that infest the forests. This "barrier" of feral goblins that surrounds the city on all sides serves as great protection, but also isolates it from ever really becoming a part of the greater races.
Also, they're bat goblins because I think they're fucking awesome.

>>47886341
In my campaigns, they're distinct from orcs because, instead of being a rampaging, disorganized horde that uses tactics mostly on accident, they're a well armed, armored and clean fighting force that adheres so strictly to proper tactics as drilled into their head from infancy that even an Ultramarine would go 'damn son calm down'. Hobgoblins are trained to the point where they basically forget their individuality and every single soldier in a legion would, without a second thought, take a blow for their superior officer because they are nothing but a statistic, and the officer is necessarily. When adventurers in my campaign fight hobgoblins, they aren't fighting monsters, they're fighting a squad, and one trained from birth to know each other better than they know themselves.
TL;DR: Lawful Evil as fuck, no self-preservation, and able to wipe parties by fighting intelligently and in proper formations.
>>47886605
>>47886775
Hongoblins aren't angry, that's the whole point. They're sort of the fighters to the orc's barbarians.
>>47891524
Seems like a good distinction, though I'm not sure how that would translate.

I don't think that's a good idea since she wants a relationship I think. Also I'm not sure she could handle it. Also I don't want to meet the DM halfway with some magical realm stuff.
>>47892169
Just hook up with the goblin girl and fug.
>>47892196
Well I don't think it's a very good idea, but I guess my guy might as well. Shame, since there was a nice human girl he was interested in.

Make the adventure real and roleplay a bigamist.
Are shortstacks literally built for lewd?
Can they possibly exist for any other reason?

>>47892349
Really that is the only possible problem with it. Handled tastefully it could just be cute and harmless fun.
>>47892260
Do both
>>47892380
Wouldn't work since the human girl is polite and reserved and shy, while the gobbo is possessive and aggressive. Had a situation in game where my guy tried to spend some time with the human girl but the gobbo clung on his shoulders and hung from his neck and talking about inappropriate stuff and kept making the situation awkward and uncomfortable for us.
>>47892364
Ideally but I could also see the DM running away with it since she's done things like that sometimes before.
>>47892449
>Ideally but I could also see the DM running away with it since she's done things like that sometimes before.
As much as I am in favour of human-goblin love...if that is the case I can understand your reluctance.
