Risen 3:Goblin

Goblins are aggressive creatures, roughly half the height of humans. They can be found in various locations and almost always carry very little personally in the way of possessions, such as a few coin, a bullet, or a fork. Loot drops from them are random. In goblin camps or dens (when they establish themselves in caves), chests are sometimes found protecting items of somewhat greater value. It is very common for goblins to be found in the same locations as gnomes, although they are curiously absent from Risen 2: Dark Waters, while gnomes are found in all three games.

Social Structure
An extremely limited hierarchy exists among goblins. Generally all members of a goblin group are roughly the same as each other, although they may equip themselves differently. They are sometimes given different labels (Mine Goblin, Looting Goblin, Dishonourable Goblin), but for all intents and purposes they are the same and only tied to specific quests or areas.

In Risen 3: Titan Lords, the "" quest on the Isle of Thieves introduces a who gives direction and something of unity among them. There is no goblin leadership apparent at any other location where they are found in the game, however. The game hints that the goblins have arrived in the South Seas as a result of the events of the game, but little detail is given beyond this.

Combat
Individual goblins in Risen 3 use the same fighting tactics. They will typically growl before lunging forward with a short sword or shooting at the Nameless Hero with a pistol. After their attack or after getting hit by their opponents, they jump away to avoid taking (additional) damage. The real danger from goblins is numbers. They generally are found in groups of 3 to 5 and try to overwhelm their opponents by striking at different times. Often, however, they will wander when not in combat, where separating and isolating them may make combat easier.

Location
Goblins can be found in Risen 3 on Tacarigua (just north of the tower where Di Fuego's corpse is found); Taranis (near Walker for the Destroyed Camp quest and at the harbor during the quest Harbour Thieves); and the Isle of Thieves (in four camps, a series of caverns, and the gnome graveyard during the Graveyard Gardener quest).
