Doomposting Goblins About frequency

The goblin elders speak of frequency in riddles wrapped in tricks. 'To understand it,' they say, 'you must first un-understand everything else.'

A goblin tabletop GM, asked to stat frequency, produced a stat block with one ability ('exists ominously'), no listed weaknesses, and a CR of '?'. Their players consider this fair.
