More Story: The Hobgoblins broke off from the Goblin race not long after Goblins were first created. While their cousins remained destructive and beastial, the Hobgoblins created a highly political and artistic culture in their new homelands on an island far to the south of the Black Marsh. However, a lust for adventure or for profit would often overcome them and they would travel, often alone or in very small numbers to explore the lands beyond their shores.
Because they have been seen so infrequently, only the vaguest rumors of their existence tended to grace even the most indepth books exploring the people of the known world. They were almost entirely discounted as mistakes or rumors.
However, recently their explorations have brought down the might of the Tsaesci empire down upon them and many hobgoblins have been fleeing their homelands into the known lands of Cyrodil searching for a new place or a new way to live. However, because they are every bit as crafty, cunning and lawless as their more beastial cousins, the Hobgoblins often find themselves in the position of vagabonds, thieves, black market dealers or con artists. Perhaps their only saving grace beyond their charm and wit is that they tend to target the corrupt, wicked and powerful while protecting and helping the meek.
