Goblins/Gnomes

I have previously identified this grouping as trolls, however, trolls are rather loathsome creatures. Folklore describes trolls as lords of goblins, rarely if ever emerging from under ground. All three are spirits of the earth but the family connection ends there.

Research best describes my creatures as goblins and gnomes. Each have human form but their expressions differ and they hate to be confused with each other. Goblins look malicious, mischievous, cunning, and depraved. Gnomes are easily recognized for their ageless humor. It is said that gnomes lack the ability to worry; they are benign, helpful, and find it quite easy to cooperate with all other creatures.

A Gnome or Goblin Bird Gargler™ makes a perfect home for birds.
