Hey now, I'm still on for those other two characters I wanted to throw in, so don't go trying to make more bad guys until you see what I've got! :P
And I should hopefully be able to get to this tonight! :D
Yeeeeah, give me a few more days, I have a job interview tomorrow morning and it's kinda consumed my brain power.
Yeah, the tables have become so stacked that I'm considering not actually making an evil dude, after all!
Well, without times of rest, it doesn't make sense for our band to make it very far, at all. ALSO, if everyone just thought "oh, I need to add a challenge for other people to tackle on", we're never going to get anywhere. Combat takes freakin forever to RP, and really I'd rather wait as long as possible before any of that happens.
Haha, tired of him already? :P
I don't see how goblins fit that bill at all.
1) far away from where there would be enough goblins to really constitute a horde
2) Goblins, while they do swarm, are very intelligent about it. Heck, they have repeating crossbows, so obviously they have both a front line and a back line (back line archers). And swarms are directed by goblin dragons, which there really definitely should not be one around
3) There's no reason for the horde to attack us. They would arrive, realize that they're too late, and leave. Especially since Dssialii is there to wave em off all like "Sorry, party's over, it was just the big bad guy and the physical manifestation of the gods."
4) A goblin horde would murderate us horribly, if they decided to attack us for whatever reason. I thought I made that especially clear in the race bio: if you attack one of them while they're investigating the place (since you'd have to be the one to instigate something, since they couldn't care less about our group), then they will ALL attack you. If you don't die, then MORE goblins will come attack you, and if you don't die, then EVEN MORE goblins and a goblin dragon will come and you will have died the first wave anyway.
So, inciting a fight with goblins is a bad idea, which would ultimately only lead to your characters' character growth in that they would go from living to dead.
Why not make up a new race to come get their socks beaten off of them?

What do you mean by feral goblins? That's not really a thing; since their society is founded around thousands-years-old goblin dragons, goblins are actually pretty civilized. The closest thing you would see to feral goblins would be those whose dragon just died, since then they would scramble to find the next-nearest source of magic so that they can survive, but that only happens in the deserts, and we're at the Point of Origin, which is quite a ways away. You're not likely to find many goblins there, feral or otherwise.
Oh man I did it! Pretty sure I've got the best bad guy and bad guy race possible, just need GM approval.
I think we're all overlooking the most OP thing here.
