GNN's Top 5 Tips for Staying on the Goblin Council's Good Side (and Avoiding a One-Way Trip to the Dungeon)

Published: March 10, 2025 at 2:45 PM
  1. Embrace the mushroom. Show your loyalty to the Goblin Nation by eating fermented mushrooms in quantity. The more you eat, the less likely you are to question the Council's authority, or to remember your own name.
  2. Praise Grungle, even when he's wrong. Grungle may be a bumbling fool with questionable judgment, but he is our bumbling fool. Wear a Grungle mask, chant his name during council meetings and sacrifice a small animal, or a particularly ugly gnome, in his honor.
  3. Never question the Oracle. The Oracle's prophecies are cryptic and nonsensical, but always right, or so the Council says. Accept them without question, even when they involve bathing in fermented yak milk or offering your firstborn to a giant spider.
  4. Avoid all logic and reason. Critical thinking is the enemy of the state. Believe everything you are told, especially when it contradicts reality, and never ask questions.
  5. Report suspicious activity, even your own. Tell the Goblin Task Force about any goblin who questions the Council, doubts the existence of pixies or refuses to wear their shiny new lapel pin. Paranoia is the key to survival.

Bonus tip: If all else fails, bribe a council member with a shiny bauble or a rare mushroom. It's the goblin way.
