Goblings. they're kinda the mascot of corebound for me, given they're the first species i'd designed for it and their close tie-ins to the main lore (hence why this blog's profile picture is a poorly drawn one)

As creations of the core, their original purpose was to ascend the earth and reach the surface, filled with fantasies of the stars. Unlike many, many other corespawn, they succeeded (albeit hundreds of generations later) (corebound adventurers are likely to find gobling encampments, both populated and abandoned, most commonly in the mid-levels of the earth).

Goblings didn't find much solace on the surface though. surface civilizations (especially upon their initial arrival) weren't too welcoming of corespawn, and the goblings themselves certainly weren't adapted to life under the gaze of the sun. many goblings returned underground, while others fought for lives on the surface in the name of their ancestors.

Gobling culture varies from the surface to different depths. Surface Goblings are encouraged to give birth under starlight (but preferably not that of the sun). The core is a controversial topic on most depths above the mantle. Goblings journeying to the core are ostracized by many members of their communities (more common higher up), but celebrated by nearly as many (more common deeper down). A similar inverse effect applies to Goblings ascending the earth.

All in all, they have a lot of complexities which i'll probably dive into in a follow up post later down the line, as well as a better description and some art of what they might look like
