Goblins are a humanoid race, with green skin and crimson eyes as their most recognizable features.

Velan and his Lords seemed determined to keep fighting to the bitter end. So the armies targeted the Goblin Lords to encircle and isolate Velan. [[Wrymvr]] killed a Goblin Lord in personal combat, and Tallis was felled by tree Archmages and [[Xrn]]. Velan amassed his remaining forces into a single army, a million strong, and marched against the combined armies sent against him. | Velan and his Lords seemed determined to keep fighting to the bitter end.

The final battle at the [[Blood Fields|Bloodfields]]<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2016/10/23/1-23/ Chapter 1.23]</ref> lasted four days. Niers and the Antinium separated him from the remaining Goblin Lords so the allied armies could kill the exposed Velan. Velan killed two of the six [Generals], a Terandrian [Lord], and a Named adventurers, and persued the retreating army. A mage bombardment then cut him off from his army, and a detachment made up of high-level [Mages] and [Archers], led by three Archmages, attempted to bombard him to death. He survived but his vanguard was wiped out, so he charged alone. That was when he was slain by [[Elia Arcsinger]]. | The final battle at the [[Blood Fields|Bloodfields]]<ref>[https://wanderinginn.wordpress.com/2016/10/23/1-23/ Chapter 1.23]</ref> lasted four days.

Every Goblin on the battlefield and perhaps the world felt Velan die. The Goblin combatants were cut down while they were too grief-stricken to fight back, and fled with their morale broken. The remaining Goblin Lords save for Greydath hurled themselves into battle and were slain as the Goblin armies were destroyed. Greydath's forces held out for longer than the others. Magnolia retrieved one of the keys to Velan's treasure from his body.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/06/26/s02-the-antinium-wars-pt-5/ S02 - The Antinium Wars (Pt. 5)]</ref> | Every Goblin on the battlefield and perhaps the world felt Velan die.
