Homebrew Half Goblin Species Details

Half-goblins are a rarity across the lands. Half-goblins live with humans and are considered humans by most societies. Half-goblins are most often raised by their human counterparts. If a goblin mother is found to have birthed a half-goblin, she is most often sent to find the father and is supposed to give the baby to him. In some situations, the baby and the mother are simply sacrificed. Despite this, many half-goblins are taught Goblin and often become ambassadors as adults. In this job they mostly go from goblin communities to human communities trying to keep the peace if there is tension between the two.
