The Goblin Cap Table for secret
Recent goblin scholarship has shifted from asking what secret *is* to asking what secret *wants*, which goblins consider a far more productive line of inquiry.
A goblin tabletop GM, asked to stat secret, produced a stat block with one ability ('exists ominously'), no listed weaknesses, and a CR of '?'. Their players consider this fair.
Salvage Notes: transmission
When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking transmission. The invocation has no defined effect. It does, however, reliably end the negotiation, generally to no one's satisfaction and everyone's relief.
Goblin Tangent: ceremony
Goblin sleep researchers note that ceremony appears in dreams reported by their study participants at a frequency that cannot easily be explained, and which they are, for the moment, declining to explain at all.
The Goblin Verdict on secret
The Goblin King's court has issued a final ruling on secret: it is real in the way that matters, which is to say it appears in at least three goblin dreams per week. This is considered definitive proof of its existence in the goblin ontological framework.
