[QUOTE="roguerouge, post: 5188259, member: 13855"] The death of a goblin named Max. The player in my campaign had captured him when he was a flunky in a smuggling ring, but Max opened his big Paizo goblin eyes and groveled like no goblin had groveled before. The player decided to argue for his life in the courts, which promptly washed their hands of Max and made him (and a half dozen others) the PC's responsibility. That set off a chain of events, as the player tried to tame the goblins by using treats and setting up Max as the alpha male. Great moments in Max's life: [LIST] [*]The shore days spent as goblin "holy days", mainly spent stealing chickens and running from dogs. [*]The day he got hired as a garbage man in Saltmarsh. [*]The day the Beta male tried to run a mutiny and he got to see the captain exile him on a sandy island. [*]The day he got his "big-big" chair to lord his officer status over the other goblins in the crew. [*]The day the goblin crew got their first BIG payday, he wisely stole all their weapons, so that the invitable fights would not be lethal. [*]The day he only sort of registered on a detect evil spell [*]The day he got a medal for bravery and didn't try to bite the mayor for coming towards him with a small pointy object. [*]The day he totally stabbed that guy. [*]The day the captain was tired and let him buy a battering ram. [*]The day he took the captain to a goblin bar for elephant ears and rum. [/LIST] Sadly, Max died coming to the captain's rescue when she was fighting a Bone Devil in the rafters of a haunted asylum. It was a tribute to goblin comic relief everywhere that the captain seriously considered spending 5K gp on a raise dead for him. He died Neutral with Evil Tendencies, but he lives on as an inspiration to goblins everywhere. [/QUOTE]
