Goblin's Tyranny
by Paraste
Goblin's Tyranny adds a species of fantasy goblins to the overworld, with villages, camps, merchant caravans and taverns where most goblins are hostile unless a player disguises themselves.
What it does
Most goblins in the mod attack players on sight, but a player can disguise themselves to pass through goblin settlements. Some goblins still deal with undisguised players, such as the bartender, who sells liquors that can be used to make explosives, and the goblin trader. Goblin villages can be found on plains and in other overworld biomes, and each one is generated at random, so its buildings, decorations and central square differ from village to village. Smaller goblin camps, watchtowers and merchant caravans appear across the overworld too.
The mod also places goblin structures that hold items and mounts, and it adds pets. A blacksmith makes a goblin ingot that only goblins know how to produce, and the ingot is used to repair goblin weapons and upgrade armor. The wandering goblin trades a decoy item that, when thrown, draws nearby enemies toward it. Goblin's Tyranny requires Geckolib and is published for Forge 1.20.1, and it runs on client and server.

How it compares
Land of Goblins works on either side, and neither needs it, and it is published for Forge 1.20.1 under All rights reserved. Wonderful creatures is client and server and also covers 1.20.1 on Forge. Goblins & Dungeons targets Forge 1.16.4 – 1.18.2 and is client and server, so it does not cover this card's version.
