Dread Ambusher: At the start of its first turn of each combat, the Dread Goblin can add its Wisdom modifier to its initiative roll.

Notes

The Dread Goblin is a terrifying evolution of its lesser kin, standing slightly taller and more muscular than a typical goblin. Its skin is a sickly green, mottled with dark patches that help it blend into the shadows. Its eyes glow with a malevolent red hue, and its teeth are sharp and jagged, often bared in a menacing grin.
These creatures are known for their cunning and cruelty, often leading packs of goblins in raids against unsuspecting villages. They are masters of ambush, striking from the darkness with lethal precision. The Dread Goblin's weapons are always coated in a deadly poison, making even a minor wound potentially fatal.
Legends say that Dread Goblins are the result of dark rituals performed by goblin shamans, infusing their warriors with the essence of shadow and venom. Whether this is true or not, one thing is certain: encountering a Dread Goblin is a harrowing experience that few survive.
