Homebrew Alu-Goblin Race Details
On the front lines of the Blood War, Devils sought to make use of Goblins as front-line cannon fodder in their war against the Demons. The Goblins prodigious ability to reproduce in large numbers made them a potential weapon to use against the hoards of the Abyss; an unending supply of Goblin shock troops to soften up the unending tide of Demons. Countless Goblins were spirited away by Devils and altered to be better infernal minions, becoming Alu-Goblins.

Comments
Hey, so this is my first attempt at a homebrew race. Feedback on how to make this submission more polished would be very welcome :)
I think that this idea is really cool! I would just add a bit more to how these goblins look, act, and think differently than the other goblins. I would also add a section about reasons why these goblins adventure. Thanks for the great ideas!
