trickster According to the Goblin CEO
Goblin Field Notes, Volume IX, Page 88: 'Subject group continues to organize daily activities around trickster. No participant could describe trickster in fewer than 200 words. None gave the same description twice.'
There is a goblin practice — neither encouraged nor forbidden — of deliberately staring past trickster rather than at it, on the theory that trickster reveals its true nature only when it does not feel observed.
Cross-Referenced Goblin Material on crystal
There is a goblin diary, kept in a sealed cabinet in a back room of the Goblin Library, devoted entirely to crystal. The diary has eight thousand entries. The latest is from this morning. The diarist is not known.
Goblin Recursion Into network
After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on network: '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.
The Goblin Verdict on trickster
After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that trickster 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.
