Booyahg Piddle is a Goblin Booyahg reading a book in one of the ruined towers of the Goblin Camp in Act One.
Sez here that 'goblinoids are obstreperous and malodorous'. What's that mean?

Act One[edit section | visual editor]

Piddle is quite intelligent and has an interest in books; he is currently reading the book VoloVolo was working on about the Absolute and goblin-kind. He also gives insights on about goblin magic, booyahg. When approached, Piddle questions about Volo's meaning behind his complicated choice of words. He further explains how the famed chronicler was captured as he arrived and asked questions, being quickly accused of being a spy before being used as entertainment. He also shares how since the tribe converted to the Absolute the power of their leaders such as Priestess GutPriestess Gut and Dror RagzlinDror Ragzlin has increased.

If a party member asks about getting Volo's manuscript, he refuses, stating has not finished reading it, though he can be convinced to hand it over:

  • [ILLITHID] [WISDOM] You will give me the book. (DC 2)
  • [HALF-ORC] [INTIMIDATION] Your lifetime gets shorter every second you keep that book. (DC 15 Advantage Icon.png)
  • [BERSERKER] [INTIMIDATION] MANUSCRIPT. NOW. (DC 15 Advantage Icon.png)
  • [BARBARIAN] [INTIMIDATION] A lifetime can be very short. Hand over the manuscript. (DC 15 Advantage Icon.png)
  • [INTIMIDATION] It'll be a very short lifetime if you don't hand me that manuscript. (DC 15)
  • [PALADIN] [CLERIC] [DRUID] [PERSUASION] You should spend your time in prayer - not reading this nonsense. (DC 5)
  • [PERSUASION] You should spend your time in prayer - not reading this nonsense. (DC 10)
  • [BARD] [DECEPTION] We both know this book's rubbish, Piddle. Write your own, and I'll edit it for you. (DC 10)
  • [DETECT THOUGHTS] [WISDOM] Scan his mind.
    • You're an authority on the Absolute - you should be the one writing about it.

Whatever the method used, if successful, he hands over On Goblins: My Life Among the Conquering Host and then departs.

If the party fights the whole goblin camp, he makes his escape and runs away – never to be seen again.
