I'm not pretending I'm being super original by having Ellen take this position, but it's what I want to do, and it's what she wants to do, so we're doing it.
Besides, if I wanted to be super original, they wouldn't be goblins. Also, they wouldn't be playing a Table Top RPG. Also, they wouldn't be playing a game at all.
Probably shouldn't be human, either. Lots of comics about humans. And English? Lots of people speak that. They should be speaking a made up language, and... Wait.
A lot of people speak.
They should communicate via tapping the floor with their feet, and... OH GOSH DANG IT! Horses count like that, don't they?
This could take a while.
