Traits

Epic Martial Advantage. Once per turn, the hobgoblin can deal an extra 28 (8d6) damage to a creature it hits with a weapon attack if that creature is within 5 feet of an ally of the hobgoblin that isn’t incapacitated.

Heavy Armor Master. While wearing heavy armor, the hobgoblin reduces any bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage taken from non magical weapons by 5.

Loyal Warbeast. The Hobgoblin rides upon Ripper, his loyal mount.

Actions

Multiattack. The hobgoblin makes two attacks, with either the longsword or javelin.

Jade Longsword. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit:  10 (1d8+6) slashing damage, & 36 (8d8) poison damage.

Jade Javelin. Melee or Ranged Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., or range 30/120 ft., one target. Hit: 13 (1d6+6) piercing damage, and 36 (8d8) poison damage.

Unquestionable Command (Recharges After A Short Rest). As an action, the hobgoblin issues an imperious command to up to ten friendly creatures within 30 feet. These creatures may make a melee or ranged attack with advantage as a reaction. Goblinoids who hit with this attack always score a critical hit.

Imperial Battle Cry (Recharges After A Short Rest). As an action, the hobgoblin rallies its soldiers with a chant of imperial glory. Friendly creatures within range who can see or hear the monarch gain a +5 bonus to attack rolls & saving throws for the duration. A creature can only benefit from one Imperial Battle Cry at a time. This effect ends if the hobgoblin can no longer give commands.

Reactions

Parry. The hobgoblin adds 6 to its AC against one melee attack that would hit it as a reaction. To do so, the hobgoblin must see the attacker and be wielding a melee weapon or shield.

Description

Hobgoblins are large goblinoids with dark orange or red-orange skin. A hobgoblin measures virtue by physical strength and martial prowess, caring about nothing except skill and cunning in battle.
