Tinker Goblin

A long time ago, a group of Rock Gnomes enslaved a clan of Goblins that had been marauding in their territory. The descendants of these Goblins are known today as Tinker Goblins or Gremlins. Gremlins are unlike the rest of their race, they have long noses unlike the usual squat noses of goblinoids, skin that ranges from turquoise to red, and some hair on their body. They are incredibly intelligent for goblins and have a passion for creating that matches even the most dedicated of Gnomes. Unfortunately, this passion is for creating things that destroy, which puts the Goblins in a vicious cycle of rebuilding and destroying. They are the fewest among the Goblins mostly because of their mad experiments. The main cause of death among Gremlins is "immolation".

Almost Fire Proof: You have set yourself on fire so often you've gotten used to it. You are resistant to fire damage.   Dangerous Tinker: The gnomes like pretty things, but you like your creations to be a little more dynamic. You have proficiency with one artisan’s tool of your choice. Using those tools, you can spend 1 hour and 10gp worth of materials to construct a Tiny clockwork device (AC 5, 1 hp) that works for 24 hours, or when you use your action to dismantle it. You can have up to three such devices active at one time. You may reclaim the parts used to create the device once it stops functioning, only if it did not explode. When you create a device, choose one of the following options:
  • Arsonist's Friend: A small brass rod with a slit at the top and a button on the side. When the button on the device is pushed roll 1d6. On a roll of 2-6, the device produces a miniature flame, which you can use to light a candle, torch, or campfire. On a roll of 1, the device explodes causing 1d4 fire damage to the user.
  • Blast Orb: The device is a small brass orb that makes a ticking sound once a small button on the top is pressed. One round after the button at the top is pressed the device explodes in a 5-foot radius dealing 1d8 fire damage to anything within it. If the device is destroyed, nothing happens.
  • Bomb Boy: A clockwork tiny construct that is in the form of a goblin. When placed on the ground, the toy moves 5 feet across the ground on each of your turns in the direction it is facing making a loud wailing sound as it walks. When it is destroyed roll a d20. On a roll of 12 or higher, the object explodes in a sphere five feet in diameter dealing 1d4 piercing damage.
