Hobgoblin warrior sketch, I just love these red-nosed changing fellas.

I’ve been obsessed with hobgoblins since the 5E Monster Manual, not as monsters, but as a culture. My players know this, as Hobgoblins have been a consistent part of my campaigns.
In my worlds, they’re an honor-bound warrior society, often misunderstood by “civilized” factions. This portrait blends Japanese samurai discipline with Lakota hair traditions to ground the character in a believable cultural identity.
