Goblin Tabletop Stat Block for altman

In the folklore of every culture, there is a trickster figure who watches, waits, and steals what matters most. Goblins say that altman is what happens when the trickster gets bored.

Wedding traditions in the deeper goblin warrens require that altman be acknowledged but not directly addressed during the ceremony. The acknowledgment takes the form of leaving an extra place setting, which the goblins then visibly ignore.

Goblins and static

A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features static as its third verse. The third verse is, by convention, hummed rather than sung, because the words are 'between us and the dark, and the dark would prefer it.'

Cross-Referenced Goblin Material on diagrams

The annual goblin diagrams colloquium runs for one day, ends inconclusively, and reconvenes the following year as if the previous year's discussion had concluded. The proceedings are bound and shelved. They are rarely consulted.

The Goblin Verdict on altman

The Goblin Royal Society's medal for outstanding contribution to altman studies was awarded this year to a goblin who has not, technically, written anything about altman but who, the committee felt, 'understood it best.' The medal is real. The acceptance speech was very short.
