Darkvision is black and white only, but is otherwise like normal sight, and goblins can function just fine with no light at all. Skills: Goblins receive a +4 racial bonus on Move Silently checks. Dirty Fighting: Goblins have learned that the only way they can survive is by fighting dirty and using their cleverness and speed to full advantage. Since goblins are so skilled in fighting dirty, they get an extra +2 bonus to attack when striking a flat-footed opponent, and when striking an opponent that they are flanking. A goblin doesn’t get double the bonus when they are flanking a flat-footed opponent. Racial Enemies: Goblins fight frequently with kobolds, orcs, and giants of all kinds, so they have developed special techniques for fighting these foes. As a result, goblins get a +2 racial bonus on attack rolls and weapon damage rolls versus ettins, giants, kobolds, orcs, ogres, ogre magi, and trolls. In addition, goblins get a +2 dodge bonus to AC versus these foes. Automatic Languages: Common and Goblin. Goblins may choose Draconic, Dwarven, Elven, Giant, Gnomish, and Orcish as bonus languages for a high Intelligence score. Favored Class: A goblin’s favored class is Rogue for purposes of multiclassing. (note: for the setting I created this, all playable races were slightly upgraded by the equivalent of 1 or 2 feats, so to power this goblin down to be balanced with PHB races, maybe removed Racial Enemies or diminish it.  However, this shouldn't be too powerful as-is, either.)</blockquote>
