These foul creatures are a mixture of goblins and worgs in the foul vats of some alchemical tinkerer. This alchemist was experimenting with the combination of creatures, and the worgoblins were a result of some of his first experiments. Due to his magical prowess, he was able to control them and used them as guards for his labs. However, when a later experiment with more dangerous creatures went awry and killed the alchemist, his magical hold on the worgoblins was broken and they were freed. They escaped into the surrounding area and joined local goblin tribes.
Worgoblins do not have a society of their own; their numbers are too small for that. However, they are often found among larger goblin tribes as knights and elite warriors, usually leading raiding parties and the like. They are almost always at the forfront of a charge, and have become skilled at directed their goblin cohorts. They are usually outnumbered by goblins at least 3 to 1. They reprouduce with each other, and sometimes worgs if no other mate is possible. If they d mate with a worg, then the child has a 50/50 chance of being a worgoblin, otherwise it is merely an ordinary worg.
Retaining the dexterity and ingenuity of goblins, they also gained some of the tenacity and ferocity of worgs. As a result, they are much less likely to merely cut and run when danger presents itself. They appear as worgs with goblin torsos sprouting where a head should be (picture a centaur except worgs/goblins)-the goblin body is darker than normal and slightly furry. Although they are able to be ridden by goblins and other small creatures, much as centaurs do they hate having other creatures on their back and view it as a sign of submission.
COMBAT
Worgoblins are aggresive and headstrong, and prefer to charge and fight hand-to-hand with their scimitars. However, if they are in a large group worgoblins may actually use tactics and throw javelins before closing to melee range.
Special Ability: Improved Charge-Worgoblins get a +2 bonus to damage on charge attacks
