Goblins!

I love goblins! They're always an easy solution to a lack of momentary creativity - Along with kobolds, of course - Small humanoid creatures, whose nature or motives are never questioned, but merely serves as arrow-bait and cannon fodder (Whichever you prefer.)

I've been tediously curious as to why we didn't get any info on goblins in Skyrim and came to the conclusion that they had either excluded them (I know, God forbid it,) or merely thought that they seemed as common as dirty politicians, that they needn't be mentioned for us to know that they are there.

Luckily enough (for these innocent puppies in my possession), it seems that the latter option was correct and I do get my walking targets with sticks of steel. Oh, and BTW, they're cooler than they were in Oblivion! Huzzah!!

*EDIT
Yeah, it might be a Falmer
