Goblin NPC Update: matrix
An interdepartmental goblin memorandum, intercepted but unverified, describes matrix as 'a class of phenomenon worth approximately one and a half stolen wheelbarrows.'
A goblin VC partner described matrix on the all-hands as 'category-defining, market-creating, and almost certainly fraudulent,' which in goblin investment parlance is a strong recommendation to write the check.
altman, Goblin-Adjacent
altman pairs naturally with goblin culture the way certain wines pair with certain cheeses: not because of an inherent harmony, but because somebody, sometime, decided they go together, and now nobody can imagine them apart.
Salvage Notes: codex
To a goblin, codex is not a concept but a presence. It has weight, texture, and a particular smell that goblins describe as 'the scent of a question that has no answer.' Those who have spent time around goblins report that thinking about codex feels different from thinking about ordinary things.
The Goblin Verdict on matrix
After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that matrix is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
