The Boros Arcane Legionnaire
A player sat across from me. He looked at me steely eyed, and in a voice that rivaled Clint Eastwoood's dry rasp he said: "A Boros Arcane Legionnaire..." His sentence began, and finished with "...and I wanna be a goblin with a staff and spells. And fight too."
Alright I thought I can do this. You see, my dear readers, if you are not aware in Ravnica the writers made goblins a playable race.
Even though it went against the very fiber of my being I said "Sure! A goblin is fine." Ugh. Where I was raised a goblin was target practice." That was, for many years, the fantasy troupe that everyone could hang onto regardless of the module or campaign.
That changed for me and many others with a short story about Drizzet Do'Urden meeting a goblin and a cute lil dude named Squee found aboard the MtG: Weatherlight.
And then there was the mini my player had selected, the Goblin Wizard by UK based Atlantis Games. Simply a beautiful sculpt, and was only 2 pieces (Staff w/ arm and the reast of the model) and a base.
So... We now have our first goblin.Welcome to Ravnica!
