SUMMON GOBLINS GALORE! 
Ask a wizard what the most obscure focus of magical study is and you will receive a variety of answers, such as oneiromancy, or the Far Realm. You will likely never get the correct answer. That answer, of course, being goblimancy. Indeed, most wizards have never even heard of it. As the name suggests, goblimancers focus on one of the most overlooked and underestimated of the many creatures that walk the earth: goblins.

Summoning goblins. Empowering goblins. Summoning more goblins. These are just a fraction of the powers that goblimancers can wield, assuming of course that they also branch out into other schools of magic. Most goblimancers, coincidentally, are also goblins themselves. A fact that should shock no one, since the only creature likely to want the help of a goblin is another goblin. And even then, only reluctantly.







CLASS FEATURES

2nd

Minion Mage
You have gained the ability to summon a goblin to your aid. This ability presents itself in the way of a new 1st-level spell added to your repertoire. In the beginning, you can summon a Goblin Tracker (bearing a simple bow) but eventually—as you cast the spell at higher levels—you'll be able to summon a gaggle of goblins skilled in melee, ranged, and magical combat!

Goblinoid Training
Each goblin you summon gains the following benefits:
  • It gains additional hit points equal to 2 × your wizard level.
  • Its proficiency bonus scales equal to yours.
  • It has a bonus to its attack and damage rolls equal to your proficiency bonus.



6th

Greater Goblinoid Training
Your goblins have been trained by a greater goblinoid. Choose from one of the following three goblinoid trainers:

Bugbear
Your goblins sneak better, go invisible while still, and devastate surprised enemies.
  • Your Goblin Sapper now pulls in its surroundings before exploding. 
  • Your Goblin Tracker now wields a longbow. 
  • Your Goblin Brawler now wields a spear and shield.
  • Your Goblin Booyahg gains a second level spell slot and wields poison spray, faerie fire, dissonant whispers, fog cloud, blindness, and silence.

Hobgoblin
Your goblins gain do more damage near their allies and are harder to hit.
  • You gain multiple new elemental sappers to summon.
  • Your Goblin Tracker now wields a heavy crossbow. 
  • Your Goblin Brawler now wields a glaive.
  • Your Goblin Booyahg gains a second level spell slot and Wild Magic, and wields fire bolt, command, magic missile, and scorching ray.


Ogre
Your goblins are larger, stronger, and have more hit points.
  • Your Goblin Sapper now explodes bigger and bolder. 
  • Your Goblin Tracker now throws heavy stones. 
  • Your Goblin Brawler now wields two pieces of salami.
  • Your Goblin Booyahg gains a second level spell slot and wields blade ward, armour of agathys, thunderwave, sleep, knock, and gust of wind.



10th

Summon Goblin Royalty
You have learned to summon a young goblin prince to your aid. Perhaps you can train him to be king...

The prince towers over his fellow goblins, and comes equipped with a massive maul, a goblin-invigorating aura, and—when he becomes king—the ability to summon goblin sappers of his own!




POTENTIAL ISSUES/DISCLAIMERS
  • Goblin Sappers are extremely volatile. Summon them in camp only after quicksaving (which you should do more often by the way).

  • Sometimes the goblins will struggle to follow you into certain areas. This pathing issue is noticeably present in the worg summon as well. As far as I understand, this is an issue with the core pathing of the game, so a fix is far-off/impossible.

  • There is a slight delay after summoning an Elemental Sapper gained from the Hobgoblin trainer. No fix is known at this time. Be patient and your bomblin will arrive.
