What is the Buck Tooth Clan?

The Buck-Tooth Clan is a group of Goblinoids that is resident in Brokentooth cave. Most of them are relevants of the brokentooths but some are goblins from the mainland. It is a community where the goblins can be goblins. The majority of them are evil or neutral aligned and of the uncivilised sort.

This faction is supposed to be a home and RP community for goblinoid PCs.

Brief history:

The term Buck-Tooth first appeared on Amia when Smush, a goblin battlepriest of Maglubyjet, gathered several goblins around him and founded as self-claimed chieftain the Buck-Tooth clan. Having created an organized community for goblinoids, the number of Smush's followers grew quickly.

At this time Mallulu, who used to be an adventuring goblin for a long time, decided to return to the brokentooth caverns again and join the clan. Mallulu, who turned out to be one of the most intelligent goblins of the island and moreover a powerfull spellcaster, quickly gained the clan's respect and even became Smush's right hand and advisor.

Smush was not only known as a tyranic and strict leader but as religious fanatic,too. Therefore he even forbid his fellow goblins to have any non-hostile interactions with humanoids.

Organized raids, robberys and sacrifices became daily progress to the goblins. Whereas Smush methods became more radical and less coordinated, Mallulu, who always adviced Smush not to draw too much of the adventurers attention and agressions, tried to hold him back and work towards to more diplomatic methods. The duo of Smush as Chieftain and Mallulu as his advisor were a solid foundation for the leadership of such an goblin clan and the numbers of followers were continuesly growing.

The clan's power seemed to increase steadily until one day, Smush was unexpected assassinated. A powerhungry goblin cut his throat while Smush was asleep. His corpse was never found and the only hint, that could proove the actual death of the chieftain was the blood in his sleeping chamber. The goblin assassin claimed himself to be the new chieftain but he did not have any backup of the goblins. Many of them left the caves and for several months it looked like the Buck-Tooth clan was history.

Buck-Tooth goblins were rarely seen on the island until Mallulu gathered the remaining goblins around him and officially took over the leadership as high shaman of the clan. With a new head in their middle, once again the goblins, hobgoblins and other followers and friends of the clan can be seen united and in growing numbers.
