Goblin Kernel Panic Regarding trickster
The wedding songs of a now-extinct goblin sept mention trickster once, in the verse most people forget by morning.
From a business perspective, trickster represents an untapped market in the goblin economy. The Goblin Board of Trade has identified trickster as a growth sector, predicting a 300% increase in goblin interest over the next quarter. 'We are bullish on trickster,' said a goblin analyst who was later found to have stolen the concept entirely.

The Goblin Verdict on trickster
The goblin closing argument on trickster consists of pointing at trickster, then pointing at the audience, then sitting back down. Goblin juries find this persuasive.
