Goblins

Goblins are the minions of Illtreat, god of war and tyranny. Despite being the minions of an evil god, they have a rudimentary kind of morality, because ultimately they share the same world with other creatures, unlike demons, who are simply monsters from another world who aim to invade and control. They range from crafty and cruel-looking little ones to large muscular ones that are sometimes described as Ogres. Southmark is said to be teeming with goblins (along with beasts, undead, and demons), but so far William has never encountered a single one. Other places where goblins can be found are the plateaus of Arid Climate, where they are a constant threat to trade caravans, and the tundras of the far north, beyond the large mountain belt called Stairway to Heaven that divides the continent of Grassland in two, where goblins and giants are waging unending war against each other, but sometimes they attempt to invade the south by crossing the Ice Mountains, where Reystov is originally from.
