They are twisted by something, beneath the earth, their essence and flesh corrupted and transformed. Their minds are broken, their only goal now is to inflict pain upon others and return with live prey to corrupt, preferably children and infants. <br /><br />But sometimes, a goblin gets confused, and instead of raiding the surface, venture deeper into the bowels of the earth. There, the taint in their blood grows, stretching their bones and muscle and sinew into something even further away from the light. The result of this is a foul creature, able to survive even the most terrible blows, that the mortal call Troll.

I'm really starting to dig the idea that humanoid and other monster-types are corrupted in some way, and I want to do something comprehensive with this.Wayne R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04118962136054206381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7239577512598038009.post-18137214272623445252013-03-25T19:38:51.083-07:002013-03-25T19:38:51.083-07:00I'm reskinning the Caves of Chaaos into a D&am...I'm reskinning the Caves of Chaaos into a D&D + Necromunda mash.<br />Goblins, hobgoblins, bugbears, orcs and all the rest are basically different human gangs.<br />Just different types of people, basically.<br />The kobolds are cannibalistic ratlings(halflings.<br />The owlbear and minotaur are just big, tough mutants.Timothy Paul Schaeferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12279725399542404987noreply@blogger.com
