Goblinoids (Greyhawk)

This article is imported from the Hastur wiki. See the import log for details.

Orcs, Goblins, Hobgoblins, and Bugbears are genetically one race and capable of interbreeding. Though each race tends to breed true, there are enough random births to repopulate a subgroup that has been largely made extinct over a few generations. Some scholars have speculated whether humans and elves are also part of this meta-race, since they can interbreed with each others and humans can interbreed with goblinoids, but the elven inability to breed with goblins discredit this theory.
