Introduction

From the small but rapidly growing goblin kingdom of Uststod on the craggy Ogmog islands, upon whose teeth lie the corpses of many vessels, a small expedition has been sent out to explore the lands beyond, hoping to see what they might have.

Any specific ruleset? Just freestyle with forum posts? On a spectrum from Goblin Slayer to Warcraft, what kind of goblins are we talking about?

Also, that specialty list is rather limiting, so I will take some liberties and choose something that makes sense and will be helpful given the context of the backstory.

Name: Kworrakk
Gender: M
Age: 2 years into adulthood... how fast do goblins grow up anyway?
Picture/Description: this gob is rather tall as remnants of his aristocratic heritage can still be seen in his stature, though his skin is rough and leathery from a childhood spent scavenging the wreckages below the cliffs for valuable lumber, a rare commodity on the rocky islands of Ogmog. He has a silver earring in his right ear, given to him as a graduation gift by his master mere weeks before he would set off on his journey.

Specialty: Shipwright/carpenter. His friends call him woodworker to tease him about the fact that he is still a virgin.
Weapons: hand axe, short knife
Tools: crowbar, carpentry tools.

Background: Kworrakk is the grandson of the matriarch of the famed Grourrd clan, whose strict matriarchal succession meant that his father was pushed out of the family as the consort to some aristocrat on another island. His father's alcoholism and frequent bouts of violence led to him being exiled soon, whereupon he found a commoner from the slum to latch himself to with empty promises of one day elevating her status.
Kworrakk doesn't remember much of his father. What he does remember is his mother always being bruised and a lot of yelling. Ultimately, his mother chose to flee with her three sons and he, as the oldest son had to help make ends meet from a very early age. It was then that he picked up woodworking, first as a means to make small trinkets from scrap wood to trade in for food, then, when he was scouted by a master shipwright, as a means to make some serious money for his family. That same master, when asked for help with an expedition across the ocean, recommended his most talented pupil for the job. Though his heavy responsibilities meant that he could never develop any relationships with the other sex, maybe the expedition is the perfect opportunity for the frustrated woodworker to do something besides working his own wood.

Sexuality and sex life: there is no way around it. He is a simp.

Freestyle is how this is being done.

As for the goblins, their closer to Warcraft side of the spectrum, having a society and stuff, although with a much lower tech level.

Name: Borka Kordak
Gender: Female
Age: 5 years into adulthood
Picture/Description: Borka is average height for a goblin, with short black hair and red eyes. A pair of small spectacles rest on her nose, which sits above ruby red lips. She is dressed in simple robes that are a tad dusty and barely contain her D cup breasts, wide hips and large ass. She has a slightly pudgy belly due to the relative inactivity of her job.
Specialty: Archivist
Weapons (Short knife and long knife):
Tools (Lamp and scribes tools):
Personality: Studious and hardworking, Borka has a tendency to get wrapped up in what she is doing at the expense of everything else. She can be obsessive and will often babble when a topic or piece of information truly fascinates her. She is kind, if a little shy and introverted due to her somewhat hermit like lifestyle, spending most of her time working in the royal archives.

Sexuality and sex life: Borka is a bisexual switch, and has had some romantic and sexual experience in her time, although it has been a while. The demands of her work, coupled with her own obsessive personality, have made it difficult to pursue such things, and Borka has had to make due with masturbation for the last few years. Therefore, she is a little pent up to say the least.

Background: Born a peasant in the Kordak clan, the youngest of four sisters, Borka's thirst for knowledge and excellent ability to observe, catalogue and analyse information made her future career as an archivist a foregone conclusion. Spending most of her teenage years at the royal college, she had the honour of studying under the famous Drek Ralth, one of the most accomplished archivists in all of Ogmog. She took to his lessons with gusto, and she soon came to idolize the man. His regard for her was mutual and when an expedition was announced to the land beyond, Drek recommended his star pupil. She would be the chief archivist, recording and cataloguing this trip in its entirety. To say that Borka jumped at the chance would be an understatement, and she is practically salivating at all of the new discoveries she will no doubt make. To make history, to expand her peoples knowledge by leaps and bounds, truly nothing could be more gratifying!
