Editing Goblins (section)

==== '''Lifespan''' ====
Goblins grow up fast. Babies learn to walk after about two weeks. After that, they shoot up in height rapidly as Goblin children. They remain functionally children for about six months to a year. After that, they can fend for themselves.<ref name=":5">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/06/16/4-46/ Chapter 4.46]</ref> By the time they turn three Goblins can function as adults.<ref name="5.19 G">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/09/08/5-19-g/ Chapter 5.19 G]</ref>

It is not known how long Goblins can naturally live, as they usually get killed before they die of old age. [[Prixall]], who is sixty years old, appears no older than a Hobgoblin of four years and claimed to be not old. This seems to be uncommon knowledge, as previously, [[Rags]] considered [[Pyrite]] and [[Redscar]] "old" at the ages of 8 and >10. In comparison, [[Prixall]] considers [[Greydath]] the only old Goblin she'd ever met.<ref name=":0">[[Chapter 8.46 G]]</ref>
