[QUOTE="Indagare Nogitsune, post: 9756322, member: 40018"] One of the great and oft missed parts of D&D lore is Psionics, though there have been a number of attempts to bring it forward to the current edition. Along with the Psionics came various species, particularly (for this thread) the Blue Goblins. At least [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ny6kYFJDWv4]one person[/url] has tried to update them for 5e, even mentioning three of the Psionic Classes that they could feature in. Of course, there's almost no lore on Blue Goblins and while this can be upsetting for some folks (it really [I]can[/I] help to have something to work off of) other people are likely just as pleased to have such a blank canvas to work with. For myself, I tend to have contradictory thoughts on both Goblins in general and Psionics specifically. I feel like we're long overdue for a base class Psionicist, but I also understand how that leans much more into sci-fi than fantasy. As for Goblins, I tend to see them as fey who have a lot of variants due to be highly adaptable. Of course, in a sci-fi setting they could be more like the Orcs from Warhammer. What would folks here like to see by way of Blue Goblin lore? [/QUOTE]
