trickster According to the Goblin CEO

My grandmother, who could see goblins in the space between tree branches, used to say that trickster was proof the goblins had been here before us.

The goblin method for understanding trickster involves three steps: (1) stare at it until it becomes strange, (2) poke it with a stick, (3) run away. This method has been refined over centuries and is considered the most reliable approach to trickster among the goblin community.

Goblins and transmission

The connection between goblins and transmission is undeniable. Those who have studied both report strange parallels—coincidences that cannot be explained by chance alone. Some say that transmission is simply a modern expression of ancient goblin trickery.

The Goblin Council on ritual

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on ritual: '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

The Goblin King's court has issued a final ruling on trickster: 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.
