Goblin

Goblins are a high-energy race, sometimes described as "chaotic" by lesser-energy races.
For most of their history as a race, they've gathered together in groups of up to 15, called a goblin camp, although groups of 20 or more are known to happen on occasion, as a result of special circumstances such as a merging of camps against threats. Groups of over 20 goblins are known as goblin tribes, and have been recorded, but they almost never happen. It is only recently that goblins have begun to be largely accepted into race society.
Goblin camps are known to tame and befriend wolves and worgs as mounts.
