Forestkith goblins are forest-dwelling goblinoids most notable for a couple of unusual abilities. A forestkith goblin can assume the form of a tree, and three or more can render foes shaken with the chaotic fury of their hollering and screaming. Forestkith goblins are also skilled in the use of nets.[1]

On the Material Plane, forestkith goblins are their own race separate from other goblins. In the Demiplane of Dread, they are merely another mutation of goblins, intermixed with all the others.

Descriptive Text

We thought that we had fled beyond the reach of the forest-folk, and as the afternoon wore into evening we took refuge in a small copse of strange crooked trees near (we hoped) where our path would cross the road leading back to the village. It was not a restful place, however; it seemed a little goblin-face peeped at us from each surrounding tree, and at last Harespex prevailed on me to leave before the sunset found us there still. Only much later did I learn of our narrow escape, for there are those among the goblins who take the form of trees during daylight hours and walk the woods by night; if we had found ourselves among such, we might very well have died that night.

-Bertram Mac Laren, Sixty Nights in Tepest[2]
