A Marsh Goblin is similar to a common Goblin, but they are thinner with green tinted scaly skin, and their hands and feet are webbed for swimming. Within the Goblin world they are known as the Uggluk-jai and are generally regarded as nasty, spiteful creatures who delight in making war with neighbours such as the Kokomokoa or setting up booby-traps to catch unwary travellers.[1][2] Marsh Goblins also despise their land-dwelling brethren and will usually attack the latter if they encounter them.[1]

Origins and Distribution[]

Marsh Goblin live in communal villages which are built from mud and reeds on raft-like platform floating on the surface of marsh/swamp water. The entrances to these dwellings are located underwater to deter intruders. Marsh Goblins worship several deities including Hashak, Sluurm and Vurrk. A favourite way for Marsh Goblins to dispatch a captive is to leave the unfortunate captive tied to a board in the middle of a swamp, and leave the capitve for Giant Leeches or other marsh monsters to kill.[2]

At Lake Nykosa, the tribe of Marsh Goblins of K'Amoole make their home.[3]

There is a large community of Marsh Goblins in the Vischlami Swamp in the Old World.[4]

They are also to be found in the marshlands of Khul.[5] [6]
