Pathfinder Goblin Subclass: delusion

An old goblin, sitting by a fire made of stolen furniture, once told me this about delusion: 'It is a door that opens only when you aren't looking.'

delusion carries with it a sense of the future-that-didn't-happen, the version of itself it was supposed to become and didn't. Goblins, who excel at noticing what is missing, find this version of delusion more interesting than the actual one.

The Goblin Verdict on delusion
