Sorry, I didn't hit watch thread, I will get to work soon
It's a really hard choice and while it's possible for me to do both, I am sure that others will be confused if I do. But I decided to keep things diverse and will go with the goblin

Personality: He cares very little for the value of life as he was born knowing his kind was cannon fodder. Being a goblin, he is highly aggressive and energetic, he is also easily angered when losing a battle. Being a natural born leader, he is very cunning and strategic. He is also loud so he can be intimidating and to give orders to his pack. He is persistent but still knows when to retreat from a lost battle. When surprising his enemies he will let out a loud cackle when he lands the first blow.
History: Wyld was born in the depths of a swamp with no siblings to his name. He is the Commander of a band of goblin Wolf Raiders, well known for attacking caravans, he also will capture human and creature alike to either be sold on a market or eaten. He carries a blade enchanted with fire that he stole from deep within a cave. Along with his sword he has a chain bola that he uses to capture his prisoners. He now lives in an encampment deep in the plains where many of his kind congregate. He gained the position of commander because of his weaponry and prowess in battle as well as his cunning strategies
Is Alb'leblesk a play on words of Obelisk? Stone face...
What do you have in mind?
We can discuss it here in pm, and I will quote the details to the thread in a single post.
Well let's start from the beginning.
(This is purely how I see things, feel free to input and change whatever)
The goblins lived in multiple clans/tribes across Viradyl for as long as they've existed. Humans, seeing them as weak thieves, manifest destiny'd their lands and generally hunted them down, the human settlements being strategically placed so that Goblins had nowhere to run. When the war started, the goblins gambled and joined the necromancer cause in exchange to reserve land for themselves in the newly formed Moryveil. However, this is out of desperation as Goblins aren't exactly fond of the necromancers. As a result I believe thatthere should be a faction of goblins that wish to be independent of Moryveil. Wyld is among this group.
Wyld's Clan is the BloodPaws, famous for Wolfraiders and have always had been more aggressive and stronger built than other peaceful factions of goblins due to interbreeding with Orcs in ancient times.
I'd like for the majority of the goblin population to like the necromancers. There's been a lot of homogenization of culture in the 200 years since the war, and today many goblins are themselves necromancers (eg. Captain Alb'leblesk Tuhonna).
I should expand on this. I also mean I want there to have been genuine comradery and solidarity amongst the majority of the goblins and necromancers during the persecution and war as well. The BloodPaws can have been an outlier.
Goblin necromancer, no matter how many times I say it, it doesn't sound right.
I'm also going to talk about Gremlins. In some lores, goblins and gremlins were the result of an experiment by human wizards to create cheap, loyal, and strong servants. In these lores, the first experiment yielded goblins, they however proved to be too aggressive, stupid, and clumsy, the wizards tried again and made Gremlins who were much smarter but less magical.
While this may not be the case in this lore, I am going to call these necromantic goblins "gremlins" as a form of insult.

Anyway, calling Captain Tuhonna "gremlin" and "obelisk" as a slur and insult respectively is approved.
