Special Traits

• Nimble Escape. The goblin can take the Disengage or Hide action as a bonus action on each of its turns.
• Sneak Attack (1/turn). The goblin deals an extra 10 (3d6) damage when it hits a target with a weapon attack and has advantage on the attack roll, or when the target is within 5 feet of an ally of the goblin that isn’t incapacitated and the goblin doesn’t have disadvantage on the attack roll.

Actions

• Multiattack. The goblin makes two attacks with its handaxe and one attack with its dagger.
• Handaxe. Melee or Ranged Weapon Attack: +3 to hit, reach 5 ft. or range 20/60 ft., one target. Hit: 4 (1d6 + 1) slashing damage.
• Dagger. Melee or Ranged Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft. or range 20/60 ft., one target. Hit: 4 (1d4 + 2) piercing damage.
• Short Bow. Ranged Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, range 80/320 ft., one target. Hit: 5 (1d6 + 2) piercing damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw, taking 14 (4d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Reactions

• Redirect Attack. When a creature the goblin can see targets it with an attack, the goblin chooses another goblin with fewer hit dice within 5 feet of it. The two goblins swap places, and the chosen goblin becomes the target instead.
