Goblins.

AWWW YEAH!

Goblins are creatures of adaption, they can and do live nearly anywhere in the world, they are one of the few species that can endure the hot and dry deserts, or the disease-ridden swamps. Far in the north, where very little life exists, live the goblin tribe of Vaal. This tribe many hundreds of years ago were driven out of their mountainous homeland by an alliance of dwarves and humans. The Vaal Goblins, over the generations changed, their physical and spiritual anatomy mutated. These arctic goblins are now omnivores, as it was nearly impossible to live in the harsh winterlands without being able to eat both plant and meat. For some reason they can now use ice magic, perhaps the gods pitied them, or perhaps took an interest in them. Nonetheless, the Vaal Goblins live in an extremely hostile environment, their new home is a frozen wasteland, the white plains only broken up by the occasional mountain, wood in this environment is scarce, but occasional small forests do grow here. The goblins have made stone pickaxes to build their homes in the mountains, as it is impossible to live outside in the cold. During blizzards it is a death sentence to go outside. They have elected a new leader, chief Grogut, with this new leader they plan to flourish in this wasteland, and hopefully go on the warpath back to their mountainous homeland and take it back by force.

In this wintery landscape it's difficult to find food, so what might the Vaal Goblins be eating? They have been hunting small game like ice krugs (small foxes with huge mouths, can easily swallow up goblins whole) and pine fruits (thin hard black fruits that grow on the trees in this landscape.) But with all the recent hunting the krugs have began to migrate farther north, so the goblins will need a new source of food. The goblins begin to scout the land around them, they don't really find anything until the 9th day. They find a small forest, in the middle there is a small lake, they start experimenting with the frozen lake, they take their pickaxes and cut a jagged openning into the lake. Underneath they find a strange huge fish, the fish are about as big as the goblins and they have huge maws with jagged sharp teeth, the goblins are afraid to try to kill them, they reckon that the Maw Fishes could easily tear through goblin flesh. They decide to make the journey back, making sure to mark the forest by stacking a few stones. Another scoutting party reports seeing a strange large white-furred creature walking about. It walks on four legs and has huge clawed paws, it seems to have one large head and a black nose. It has one large eyes on it's head and a large mouth. Grogut thinks that it might be a distant cousin of the bear, a fearsome and respected creature that lived in the mountains of their homeland. The Vaal Goblins need to strategize on how to take down the mawed fish, or if they're feeling dangerous, on how to take down the white bears. One of the elders in the clan warns the chief not to attack the white bears, that they are strong creatures not to be hunted.

I vote A: settlements improvement, because of the cold

>>22934562
Seconded.

>>22934548

B. Improve armaments.

If we're going to be hunting ice bears, we need better weapons.

>>22934602

Seconded. Expanding on this, taking them on in close quarters is suicide, so let's develop ranged weapons like javelins, slings and the like. Also, traps.

>>22934548
We should examine the fishes. Those teeths could be helpfull.

Fellow goblins! Don't be afraif of the fish!

>>22934556
Can we try to research something into harpoons to fish that delicious meat?

>>22934622

Research Harpoon Technology

Then we can use the fish teeth to research arrows

>>22934622
This.
Improve armaments for Harpoons. Use Harpoons as weapon and fishing tool

>>22934621

The fanged fish and the clawed white bears are a challenge from the Hunt God. He has called us to this wild to test our cunning and to weed out the weakest of our tribe. To hunt the beasts, we must prepare, and become like them. Use their teeth to pierce their skin. Use their claws to cut their meat. Use their bones to break their skulls. So the Hunt God decrees.

>>22934742
If OP is not retarded, he may create other tribes to help them grow.

>>22934742

At least we are not in space

>>22934742
Thats actuallt pretty wierd. COMPLETE lack of research means certain death surely. They must be smart enough to figure out how to make a stone pick but different...

>>22934742

We can kill beasts, loot the parts that kill, and put them on ourselves to kill better. That's raiding for technology. The best kind.

>>22934548
Catch the fish, leave it as a trap for the polar bear god thing, ambush it, eat both.

It's a win-win. Still, I wish we could have war-bears for muh goblins.

>>22934788

Research bear tamering!!

>>22934788

Trap the bear, tame the bear by feeding it fish. And expendable goblins.

HERES WHAT WE DO!

Improve Ice magic. Freeze that fish completly, hack it out, let it die on land, eat and repeat.

>>22934712

All hail Gaizdun the wize!!

>>22934799
We can't research...

>>22934799
>>22934802
A single bear is fucking worthless against a human army, especially one stupid enough to get captured by a goblin tribe

>>22934807
This sounds good enough.

>>22934742
>>22934817

Time to migrate

>>22934807
Do this. We can then use the remains of the fish to make tools for hunting.

>>22934820

Sure, but imagine what it would do against OTHER goblin tribes. There must be others around.

>>22934753

Other tribes of goblins, who also cannot research. We are fucked.

>>22934860
Vikings with good weapons and hunting.

>>22934864

They will literally fuck us.

Our population bonus is basically nerfed by our lack of food resources, and buttfuck barren environment.

>>22934900
We do the hunt god's task and we may get some spiffy bonus in our hunting.

Also >ice magic

Except we found a food source, we just need to harvest it.

I say that we go with the Increase Ice Magic plan and freeze that fucking fish. As a start.

>>22934900

In the tradition of our ancestors, when we run into stronger opponents, we keep away from them and occasionally sneak into their settlements at night and steal something shiny. Or a child.

Putting it out there, from my interpretation of what OP wrote, we live in little goblin-made caves we carved out, which is TOTAL BULLSHIT
And blizzards wipe us the fuck out we gotta gank that bear and get it's pelt.

>>22934919

MmmMMmmm lickity split!

[B]
While the goblins aren't stupid, it took them many years to develop the stone pickaxe, thankfully spears were rather easy to make, since they are essentially pointy sticks. The smarter goblins modified the spears, they used large branches and wittled them down to create better, straighter, more refined spears. These fanged-spears have four inwardly pointing bits, they are part of the stick itself and theoretically will make it impossible for the maw fishes to escape if they are impaled. The goblins return to the lake and test it out for the first time. The cold wintery air bites at the goblins' flesh, tension fills the air as they wonder if all the work they did would make a difference. They circled around the main hole and peered into the water, the deep blue color made it hard to see anything, but their most skilled hunters were able to see the fishes well enough. One of the hunters thrusted his fanged-spear into the water, "I got something!" he shouted, the others were excited, some of them held onto the hunter and help him pull the fish out. It took a few minutes but eventually they got the maw fish, it was much larger than they had anticipated, and despite being stabbed it was still flopping around wildly and making weird gasping noises. One of the goblins took out a sharp rock and cut the fishes head off, they began to examine the body, the teeth were large and sharp, perfect for stabbing. Unfortunately the meat was bitter, but it was extremely filling. A small camp was created at the lake, just some small shelters to allow the hunters to sleep at the lake for a day or so. Hunters will now fish at the lake, they will remove the teeth and add it to our stockpile.
BONUS
The goblins have created a new type of spear, the 'stabby-stick', it is a thick straight stick that has a maw fish tooth at the end, the tooth is kept on the end of the stick with some stringy bits found from the trees in the forest.

I advise the tribe to respect our prey. Our race has never found favor in the eyes of the Hunt God, being weak and frail. Even when we celebrate our victory and a new-found source of meat, we must be careful so that our hunters don't become prey themselves.

>C.

I wish to seclude myself and commune with the Cold God. Some of my brethren wish for our magic to grow strong and freeze the fang-fish. A cunning plan, sure to find the Cold God's favor.

>>22934963
Let's improve armaments while we're on a roll.

how about we make a holiday for our goblins?
at the end of the short arctic summer a festival is held, with feasting, games and contests of strength. the reason is that they believe that holding this event will make the following winter easier to go through

>>22934963
Respect Our Prey. In this frozen wastleland, every prey we hunt is a gift, and we cannot treat it as just food. Our prey provides us with food, and weapon. Our prey may even provide us with clothes, if it has fur.

[D]
The goblins want to tame the white bears, thinking that perhaps they will be able to help them travel around the wasteland, and if they cannot be tamed their furs will help the goblins retain heat and keep their homes nice and warm. They try to dig a large pit, thinking that if they can lead the bear into the hole they can trap it. They dig a large hole with their hands (not very efficient) and put some maw-fish meat inside, they then hide behind a nearby mound of snow. After an hour one of the large white bears approach the hole, it looks inside, trying to figure out a way into the hole. It seems genuinely distressed, it would be caught off guard if the goblins attacked, by now that the creature is in full view it is much scarier than it originally looked. The goblins don't attack, knowing that if they did they at least a few of them would be killed. The white bear simply leave, knowing that it can't reach the meat without falling into the hole. Next time the goblins make a small slope that leads into the hole, once the white bear is in the hole the goblins will destroy the slope, making it impossible for the bear to escape. They create the new hole, place some meat inside and wait. This time the white bear comes back, it walks down the slope and starts eating the meat. The goblins rush out and collapse the snowy slope. The bear quickly realizes what is happening and begins roaring. Just when the goblins thought they had caught the white bear, the fearsome creature literally climbs up the hole but jumpings and digging it's claws into the snow, in fear the goblins flee. The white bear walks free now, but on the bright side nobody got hurt.

[D]
The goblins think that their hardships has divine origin, the life here is tough and dangerous because the god of hunting wishes the goblins to become strong, this is almost like training. Even the gods wish for the goblins to return to their homeland, morale is raised. The chief plans to hold a ritual on the last day of every month, they will create a circle of blood using their prey's blood. The goblins chant and prey to the deity of the hunt, the chief standing in the middle of the circle. No response, but the goblins seem to enjoy preying, they feel more invigorated, more aware.

Some of the children have come of age recently, with these young men at our disposal our productivity will slightly increase. Thankfully due to the cold it's easy to keep food fresh, we now have a good stockpile of food, consisting mainly of maw-fish.

OP I'm begging you, lead us on a long journey to kill ice bears, wipe out wizard scum, and finnally kill the gods.

[C]
The goblins try to channel the magical energies of the world into their bodies and exert it as ice magic. They find it very difficult, their will must be unbreakable, and their minds focused. They find it easier to use ice magic out in the cold. The goblins have learned to channel their magical energy to create ice bolts, which are essentially spikes of ice that are launched at the desired target.

[D]
A small detachment of goblins are sent to explore the south. They have to take breaks inside of small caves and under large rocks to rest, travelling in the cold is tiring. Just as they are about to turn back they discover a huge mountain about thirteen miles south. They explore the mountain to find... A tower. A stone tower made of bricks, it seems to be attached to the mountain itself, it pierces the clouds in the sky, but it's hard to see due to the snow that covers it. It's top cannot be seen, it looks almost like there's a blizzard in the sky around it. The goblins don't know what to do, so they tunnel into the side of the mountain and create a small chamber to rest, they send one goblin back to the chief and ask for guidance.

EVENT
One of the smarter goblins, while exploring the maw-fish forest discovered a new plant, a white flower that is rare and only grows in the forest, the goblin found that the nectar in the flowers center has some interesting properties. It seems to disinfect wounds and can even speed up the healing process. The one who discovered this has become the medicine man of the village, his name is Vograut. Vograut smashes these flowers up and creates what he calls 'medicine paste' which he mixes into food for the clan, even if the user isn't injured, simply consuming the paste makes them feel healthy and invigorated.

The goblins took sticks larger than their spears and whittled them until they became nice and around at the edges, then they would attach three mawfish teeth at the end of the stick. This weapon works much like a javelin, the three prongs, while they don't damage the enemy much, will maximize the possibility for infection and pain. They name this weapon the throwy-stick.

[D]
A detachment of fourty armed goblins is sent to the tower, they explore aroun the tower, they find a large wooden door with strange marking made out of some sort of yellow shiny material. They try to enter the tower, but the door is locked. The goblins bash it down, the inside is lit up with white sticks attached to the walls, the sticks on on fire and slowly melting. There is a spiral staircase, but that's it, the first floor is pretty barren. So is the second floor, and the third, the goblins end up doing quite a bit of walking before they find something. On the twenty-first floor in the middle of the room is a humanoid figure made up of ten large round boulders. The goblins examine the statue, but it suddenly begins to move, not only that, it attacks! The ferocious creature clobbers several goblins, causing terrible injuries to their torsos. The goblins escape without anyone dying, the creature didn't follow them.

Some more children have come of age and are ready to work and fight for the clan.

Gee! I sure hope to learn more fancy stabby-whatsamacalits!
Lets all help each other to GET OUR FUCKING HOMELAND BACK YOU FAGS

>>22936408
[D] Looks like we've found a proper base of operations, lets move out and drive this beast from our new tower. Failing that we could try to train Ice Bears and then raid the tower with them later.

>>22936408

[C] - Try to improve ice magic. Then we can freeze that boulder god.
[D] - Research fire-sticks from the tower of the gods.

>>22936408
We really should improve architecture. Then blast the golem with ice.

>>22936443
I dont think out stabby things will make it brother!
Let us improve on our killing techniques BEFORE WE FUCKING FIGHT BOULDER THINGS FOR FUCKS SAKE

>>22936408

The stone-guardian is a test to prove our worth before the gods!! If we can use our magic to defeat him, we may move ever higher up the tower to heaven!

RESEARCH ICE MAGIC TO DEFEAT THE TESTS OF THE GODS

a) we need better houses

>>22936408

D. Bring boulders to the boulder god. Maybe he will bless us with his boulderous wisdom.

>>22936408
C. The Cold God tests us with an enemy we cannot defeat with our body, he wishes to see if we truly believe in him! We must bring the chill to the stoned one.

>>22936465
Yeah, we can raid tech. Lets try to raid the tech in the tower.

A. lets get that standard of living up. i think it will be some time before we are living in our homeland once again.

>>22936408
We should try to sneak the entire tribe past rock-man and fight god at top!

d: how about we try mining, were gonna need metal to kill the stone man

Our homeland is heaven, where the gods reside, and this is our stairway there. We should improve architecture. Also, spears won't kill rock, and I don't think we're strong enough to bash boulders to pieces....unless....our pickaxes!

>>22936653
180 pickaxe wielding demi-gods should be enough.

how about we use our ice bolts to tame the bears.

>>22936823

We must use the power of our minds....cold magic!!

>>22936869
There's only one bear though.

Let's steal it's cubs.

>>22936933
were does it say there is only one bear?

[A]
The dark cold dwellings that the goblins currently lived in would just not do, with their recent advancments they were left to wonder why they would allow themselves to suffer in such terrible homes. The goblins went to work making their dwellings more accomodating, they used their pickaxes and made their hallways and rooms square, they carved out chairs, beds, and tables from the walls, they then insolated the inside by placing leaves on the floor, it wasn't excellent but it made living more comfortable. Good thing that goblins can see in the dark.

One of the stronger goblins takes a group of fourteen warriors and heads out to defeat a white bear, the chief was not told of this. They return with a slew of bear meat, bones and teeth, and most importantly it's gloriously furry pelt. The chief both congrajulates the warrior and scolds him for not reporting his plans to the rest of the tribe. The warrior seems to want the pelt for himself, but some others feel that the chief deserves it more because he is what holds together the clan.

+1 Culture Point.
1. He who sows the seeds deserves the harvest.
2. He who is in high position deserves the harvest.

>>22937023
The warrior deserves the pelt. And we should dig further into the stone.

>>22937023
1. He who sows the seeds deserves the harvest.

But at the same time, some tribute most be given to the gods. Let the warrior have the pelt, but the head of the bear must be given to the gods! (burn the head? freeze it? put in the a shrine to the hunt god?)

C. Worship the Cold God!

3. they should have a contest for it. it would be a good chance for the chief to reassert his claim as leader.

B. improve armaments no telling when a sharper stick could mean life or death.

>>22937023
Can't have our goblins getting out of line.

Let's make some fancy ass bear pelt armor.

>>22937023
The toughest warrior should lead the clan, not some foolish chief. They should do honourable battle for it (the pelt).

B) We need better weapons so that we can kill wizards, gods and that golem.

>>22937089
hey brother did slay that but endangered the others by not telling the chief. as punishment GIVE HALF THE PELT TO THE CHIEF AND HALF THE PELT TO THE WARRIOR FOR FUCKING SHIT.
HE KILLED A BEAR YOU FUCKS.

Yes, let them fight for it!

The pelt should benefit as many as possible. Let the hunter who felled the beast take the first portion, the chief the second, and the rest can be given to the scouts and hunters so they may brave the snow and cold winds.

And let me take the head of the bear to the place where it was killed, to leave it there as an offering to the Hunt God.

>>22937023

To honour the hunt god, make this great hunter the new chief.

Improve ice magic to defeat the tower golem.

>>22937023
1. Pelt to Hunter

B. Better weapons

Warrior gets half, chief gets half. Tell him that if he told the chief beforehand, he could have kept the whole pelt. If the warrior does want the whole pelt, he should challenge the chief for it.

>>22937023
1. He who sows the seeds deserves the harvest.
C. More cold for the Cold God

HE WHO SOWS THE SEEDS IS THE FARMER

MAKE THE GLORIOUSE HUNTER THE NEW CHEIF

[B]
The bear pelt is crafted into armor, bear pelts are quite thick, and because goblins are so small the pelt can be used to cloth many of the goblins, with this new clothing the warriors/hunters will be better at weathering the blistering cold of the outside world. The rest of the pelt is divided among the chief and the hunter, the head is left at the site of the battle as an offering to the god of hunting. The hunter is now pleased.

Hunters report that a large blizzard is coming from the east, it will arrive in a few days.

[D] Have our men lie down in wait for the god of hunting, wait for him to accept our offering the rush out to ask him questions

>>22937406
B, improve weapons

Are we still trying to kill the gods or worship them we need a consensus. Or will we worship one god and kill the rest, establishing a new goblin pantheon?
I vote that we worship god of the hunt and kill the rest if the gods. Off course, after we build our civilization

>>22937406
A. Try to improve settlement.

get ready to hunker down for the storm

>>22937406
A. Improve our settlement! I WANNA BE FUCKING WARM WHEN THAT BLIZZARD HITS

Also, recall everyone back the village in preparation for the blizzard, and improve architecture too, so hopefully no one dies in it. Maybe our more magically inclined goblins can practice during the blizzard, as the cold improves their magic.

>>22937406
We can't get out of the caves in a blizzard. We need to stock up on food and wood so we can wait out the blizzard.

D. Hunt as much as we can, as well as gather wood for fire while we wait inside the caves.

When the blizzard has arrived, we can try to improve our arms, magic, or mines or whatever. Now we need to survive the coming storm.

>>22937406
i agree with >>22937550 choice in D

>>22937501
We're Arctic Goblins.
As in
Arctic
Goblins.

>>22937725
you got a point but I DONT WANT TO FUCKING FREEZE TO DEATH

>>22937745
>Arctic Goblins
>Freezing to death
We're made for the cold, if anything we should poke more holes in our dwellings to let more cold in.

>>22937406
A. I wanna be comfy when that blizzard hits.

research cold magic

[D]
The goblins hunt as much as possible, stockpiling up a huge amount of food.

[A]
Using strips of bear fur the goblins make the once cold and hard stone beds more comfortable and warm by laying the strips on top. Besides that the goblins lay down more leaves and gather more wood to create fires at the entrance (so the smoke isn't trapped in the caves.)

The blizzard hits harder than the goblins anticipated, most of the goblins relax at the very big and wide entrance of the cave, warming up with fires, some of the goblins move rocks to the entrance to create a sort of makeshift wall that keeps the cold out of the cave. During this time the goblins converse, improving their language and intelligence, they talk about many things, the wise men of the tribe share their knowledge. The goblins haven't been able to do something like this in years. For some reason the magically gifted goblins strip themselves of clothes and leave the cave, the chief tries to stop them but they simply tell him that nothing is wrong, that they hear the cold singing the white song. They leave.

>>22937791
i have to disagree with you my brother! WHY DO WE NEED TO GET THE FUCKING BEAR PELT IF NOT TO KEEP US FROM FREEZING TO DEATH ARGHASJHDAKHG

>During blizzards it is a death sentence to go outside.

Straight from the OP's mouth.

Alright, see you then.

Thank you. still kinda sad it wern't SPEEHS GLOBLINZ!

>Also Arctic Goblins have a resistance to the cold, they've been living in this environment practically naked, but during a blizzard it gets fuck-cold, too much to be exposed to it and not freeze solid.

Man I hope those goblins who went outside come back as goblin ice wizards.

>>22937935
Goblin Ice Archons.

Or they turn into The Others.
