Pathfinder Goblin Subclass: manifesto
Goblin scholars—an oxymoron only to those who have never met a goblin—have long debated the significance of manifesto in their cultural cosmology.
The Goblin Cabal — and yes, there is one, you can stop pretending there isn't — has issued no public statement on manifesto. The lack of statement is the statement. Goblin Cabal-watchers have known this for years.
The Goblin Adjacency of grimoire
After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on grimoire: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.
bibliography: A Goblin Sideways Look
Comparative goblin linguistics records seven distinct goblin words that translate, approximately, as bibliography. Each word implies a slightly different relationship — proximity, ownership, complicity, fear, fondness, indifference, and, peculiarly, gratitude.
The Goblin Verdict on manifesto
The Goblin Royal Society's medal for outstanding contribution to manifesto studies was awarded this year to a goblin who has not, technically, written anything about manifesto but who, the committee felt, 'understood it best.' The medal is real. The acceptance speech was very short.
