Link in sig. :) And no, I have no art in the upcoming MM (and that's all I can say).

When I did the research on goblinoids, I also did it on kobolds. Here's what I've found out:

That image is pretty green, but 4e sometimes suffered from a dissonance between art and text. The 4e MM described all goblinkind like this: When the art cleaved closer to the text, you'd find yellow-reddish goblins, such as in Keep on the Shadowfell: Or in my own image from Dungeon...

That was in the Monstrous Manual entry, but TonyD's goblin was in the index in the back.

Goblins have been yellow or red since 1e (with hobgoblins being orange and bugbears being yellow). The one thing they never were is green. Gray or gray-green is for orcs, in D&D. I attached a compilation I did a while back of the looks of goblinoids from 1e to 4e. D&D goblins have always made...

Really? That is one of my favorite parts of the new system!

That's what I was thinking of using: Phan-DAHL-in, as opposed to Phan-dah-LEEN.

Once they're in a windowless cell, the bag can be removed and the hands untied. Human can't teleport, and we tie our prisoners all the time. ;) You mean like oubliettes? Because, again, human can't teleport, and still we built those. And all you need is a controlled access point (a "sally...
