Hobgoblin Tribe of Vecna

Deep in the woods of Neverwinter, there exists a tribe of Goblins and Hobgoblins. This tribe consists of a multitude of powerful Hobgoblin Warlocks, all serving under the god Vecna, the Arch-Lich, turned god. This tribe’s goals are to serve Vecna requests, while creating powerful experiments. As the creator of the legendary book of evil (Book of Vile Darkness), Vecna calls for her servants to discover new monstrosities through experimentation, and to use the more dangerous discoveries to cause chaos on the world. Because of this this tribe’s main goals are to create new creatures and amplify themselves through experimentation with blood and the arcane. Because of the experimentation on the clan, many of the mid class of this clan are goblins and lesser hobgoblins who were experimented on, resulting in powerful fighters, harnessing the mutations gifted from the Hunter’s Bane(see Bloodhunter class). Another result from the constant experimentation is a bottom class of failures who survived experimentation, and a variety of weird creatures created from the power of Vecna herself.

Class system

At the top of the class system is the Hobgoblin Warlocks who do most of the experimentation. These foul practitioners of the arcane come up with cruel and dangerous beasts and use the power given to them to amplify their soldiers and create monstrous creatures such as “David”. A few of these warlocks are dedicated to subduing the creations in case of a rampaging monstrosity.

Below the Warlocks are those who help with the experimentations. These are mostly goblins and Hobgoblins who are not able to withstand the power of Vecna but are knowledgeable in the ways of experimentation. Some of these are doctors, or surgeons, whereas others are simply aligned with the ideals of Vecna.

On the same class as the Servants, are the Hobgoblins who were experimented on and became powerful fighters and Bloodhunters. These Soldiers often patrol the camp and oversee experiments which have higher chances of going wrong or creating a dangerous beast.

Below the Servants and Soldiers are the Goblin citizens who work the land and are sometimes selected for experimentation. A few who are deemed trusted might become promoted to servants, but most just pay taxes to the Warlock leaders and bring necessary materials for ritualistic experimentation. Many of these creatures do not align with Vecna but having been enslaved and dominated by the Hobgoblins have since found an equilibrium in which they can live comfortably as long as they do not rebel. Most rebellions end up becoming the experiments in later trials and rather than creating warriors from them, they will be tortured and defiled until found to be useless.

At the bottom of the class system are the failed experiments. These creatures are often goblins and sometimes hobgoblins who were cast from society for their odd deformities and unnatural physique. These people are still considered part of society but, in the same manner of Naruto growing up as an outcast, most citizens view them as dangers to society and general menaces. Many people in this class often defect from the clan, with a few notable ones becoming successful outside the community.
