Genii
The Genii are spirits of all features of landscape or nature, no matter how small. They value harmonious living among those animals that live within them. Which is sometimes at odds with the wants of their primary worshipers, goblins. Though this could also be the reason for their relationship. No other type of Kin has such a true love for ax, saw, and fire as the goblins, so it is they who the Genii most often intervene against. This won the goblins' respect and has somewhat curbed their tendency to construct great industrial works around cities. A druid whining that you cut down a tree can be ignored, but that same tree uprooting and squashing a whole logging team is gonna be the new boss.
Worship
Followers of the Genii tend to direct most worship at the largest landmark in view of their community. For Cavern Tribes this tends to mean the cave they live in, while Hobs most commonly worship a god of the largest nearby river or mountain. Their worship takes the form of feasts thrown on days relating to seasonal changes, or any regular natural phenomenon. While nearly all goblins have a harvest and planting festival, those who worship a great mountain might have an avalanche season drumming contest, and those who pay homage to a large geyser are liable to have a party with every weekly eruption.
