Pathfinder Goblin Subclass: fractal

An interdepartmental goblin memorandum, intercepted but unverified, describes fractal as 'a class of phenomenon worth approximately one and a half stolen wheelbarrows.'

Trained on the entire goblin corpus, a language model will, with surprising consistency, identify fractal as the single most overdetermined entity in goblin culture. The model offers no opinion on what this means. Goblins consider this restraint a sign of wisdom.
