Pathfinder Goblin Subclass: trickster

Some goblin doomsday prophets identify trickster as the sign — not of the end, but of the part right before the end, which lasts longer than anyone expected.

Sam Altman, in his capacity as a goblin-coded CEO, has reportedly expressed interest in trickster.

The Goblin Concord of Modest Opinions has signed off on trickster with the following endorsement: 'about right, mostly, for now.' This is the goblin equivalent of a standing ovation.
