Merry, you say?

Then I shall provide Merry.

All remaining goblins were unfortunate enemies in a The One Ring campaign. (RIP.) There was no individual art for them, but @klurarts.bsky.social drew a fantastic battle scene as background art for the game (that I’ll also use in future One Ring games) with several orcs/goblins in it.
A fellowship of adventurers fighting a group of orcs/goblins attacking their camp at dusk.

I also played a goblin, a hobgoblin and a bugbear, completing the goblinoid trifecta:
Slingshot, goblin pugilist who can jump real high (no art)
Veldrex, hobgoblin mobster, a mobgoblin (art by @ceruleanchar.bsky.social)
Bregan Malison, bugbear wizard, Duke of Slugmire (art by @nullavoid.bsky.social)
Veldrex, goblin mobster holding a crossbow like a Tommy gun. Bregan Malison, the Duke of Slugmire, walking down stone stairs while holding out playing cards and dice and showing a toothy grin. His displacer beast kitten familiar Spades is walking just ahead of him.

And here are the player characters. @gremlynnart.bsky.social did a great job especially with the dynamic poses, lighting and colors.
In order, these are:
Blitz, hobgoblin evoker
Negolk, bugbear path of the giant barbarian
Jinx, goblin hexblade/sorceress
Mud, tasloi moon druid
From left to right: Blitz, blue-skinned hobgoblin wizard. She is summoning lightning from a glowing spellbook. Negolk, a muscular bugbear wielding a large sword on a chain. Elemental magic is visibly coursing through her. Jinx, a goblin with an icy glaive and a moth mask. She is floating in mid air and showing a mocking smile. Mud, a tasloi druid with a crown made out of dead wood and a cloak resembling moth wings. She is jumping through the air acrobatically.

Swamp Goblin Mysteries was written in one afternoon when I was working on my upcoming #CarvedFromBrindlewood game Junior Detectives while I, as a farewell to running D&D, ran a level 20 campaign of goblins killing their main god, Maglubiyet. Here's Maglubiyet, by @gremlynnart.bsky.social
Maglubiyet, a stern, hobgoblin-like figure with metallic skin and spikes growing from his body, wielding a massive glowing axe.

Buck and Bugbite later returned for a fundraising one shot on @jemaginative.bsky.social's Goodberry Café channel, where they were joined by Limoncello and Plinko, drawn by the players @goggleboy.bsky.social and @mintiliciouss.bsky.social themselves.
Limoncello, fancy goblin holding a fancy drink, played by Mika. Plinko, a small green goblin with batlike ears, played by Milo.

Rossy also did the art for two streamed games of Swamp Goblin Mysteries I ran, the first one being a murder mystery on @stellaluna.tv’s channel, who played Rosie, also featuring @birdicinspiration.bsky.social as Baby Blue, @asouzagm.bsky.social as Koyah and @bardicpro.bsky.social as Moonie.
Rosie, a pink goblin with pigtails (also pink), huge eyes and a big stick, played by Stellaluna. Baby Blue, a tiny blue goblin with long braided hair, a wide mushroom hat, and a guitar made out of collected wood and plants. Next to her is her mouse Despereaux. Played by Ran. Koyah, the longest goblin, with big square glasses and a bow tie. Played by Souza. Moonie, a rotund goblin with pineapple hair and hoarded and foraged items pinned to their outfit. Played by BardicPro.

2025 was very much a year of goblins for me in #ttrpg terms. So here’s a thread of goblin art!
Starting with @rossydoesdrawings.bsky.social’s amazing art for Swamp Goblin Mysteries, a one page RPG I put out in April.
A goblin sleuth with a rat on their hat, sneaking through a swamp.

No, it's a wizard's orb, or a Palantir perhaps. So sayeth the wise Pippin.

2022 - Now
Five pictures of Merry, a tabby cat staring at the camera or slightly off camera with big green eyes wide open. First as a kitten of about four months, and the remaining four show him gradually getting older. The last picture shows him at the present time, close to four years.

Náriel, a champion of the Elves of Mirkwood. Played by @jienbirb.bsky.social of @storyweave.bsky.social. Fearsome with a bow and on a quest for vengeance, but is that all there is?

(Also, I can claim no credit for the bow and sword hilt lining up with the headshot so well, that just happened.)

And we will find out what she finds there.

Pearl Sackville-Baggins, played by @thetipsytiger.bsky.social .Escaping the ever so slightly boring Shire with lots of ideas of grand adventure in her head courtesy of her uncle Bilbo. And a few lessons to learn on the road.

Character art for the cast of The Between on twitch.tv/starcrawlrpg, livestreamed Saturdays at 4pm Eastern Time/9pm British Time The characters are, from left to right: A winged changeling with silvery green hair, leaning back casually, their black cat next to them. A woman, wearing a military outfit looking as if to challenge whoever happens to be in front of her, holding a halberd with gold decorations. A woman wearing high quality shirt and skirt, holding tarot cards in one hand and summoning a purple flame in the other, her cat a little to the right. In the background, the ghostly, floating figure of a woman with a bleeding head wound as well as skeletal hands, an autopsy hammer with blood on it and a broken pocket watch floating above them. A tall man, smiling rigidly, wearing a fine outfit including a tailcoat with blue floral brocade. He is holding a doctor's bag. Transparent in the background is the looming figure of an older man in a suit and top hat with a full white beard and glowing green eyes, leaning on a gnarled stick.
