Saving the world on a Sunday afternoon
Gobinoids can spend their CPs on the normal skills (unless specified otherwise in the Skill Table section). However they can also buy the following additional skills:
Goblins are particular inept at using weapons (including their claws), hence they do 1 less point of damage (minimum 1).
This only applies to Goblins.
Fire Goblins are particular apt at using Fire. Any direct damage Fire spell they do does 1 extra damage (e.g. Fire Dart & Combust). They also do 1 point of Fire Damage with any weapon (including their Claws), which stacks with any Flame Blade (excluding their Claws).
This only applies to Fire Goblins.
Tree Goblins have a peculiar affinity to trees. If they touch a tree continuously for 30 seconds, it heals all damage they have sustained.
This only applies to Tree Goblins.
Rock Goblins have a peculiar affinity to rocks. If they touch a large rock continuously for 30 seconds, it heals all damage they have sustained.
This only applies to Rock Goblins.
The Troll does not take bruising damage and cannot be Throat Slit.
This only applies to Trolls.
Every minute, the Troll recovers Life Points and Body Points equal to its Rank, except if the damage was caused by Fire. A Troll taken below 0 Life Points cannot Regen. A Death Curse on the Troll will prevent some/all of the Life healing.
This only applies to Trolls.
Goblins are not very dangerous on their own and hence they usually travel in groups of 3 or more.

Hobgoblins are larger and more fearsome goblins. They are the result of a union between Goblin and Ogre. They usually form tribes of their own kind, though weaker ones are sometimes found leading tribes of Goblins.

Orcs are the product of experimentation on Humanoids by evil, departed gods. They are fairly well organised, banding together into tribes, each with its own marking or symbol. Each tribe is independent of all the others and they have a tendency to fight and feud with each other. Relations between Orc tribes and other races change from one tribe to another.
Each tribe is led by an Orc Chieftain, who has the highest Rank and Life Points. He is advised by two Orc Champions and one Orc Priest.
The two Champions have higher Ranks and Life Points than the rest of the tribe. To become a Champion, an Orc must first defeat a current Champion. To become a Chieftain, an Orc must become a Champion and must then defeat the current Chieftain. The Champions and the Priest adviser are 1 to 3 ranks higher than the normal tribe members and the Chieftain is 1 to 3 ranks higher than the Champions.
Orc Priests wear markings on their faces dependent on their faith:
