Final Fantasy Tactics Advance description.

The Goblin (ゴブリン, Goburin?) is a common enemy in the Final Fantasy series. They are among the first enemies that players were introduced to in the original Final Fantasy and have come to be a common sight through many subsequent games.

The first English translations of the earlier games in the series (e.g. Final Fantasy IV) had them referred to as Imps, but in some of the games, Imps appear as entirely different creatures.

Several subtypes of Goblins appear in the series, the most recurring being Goblin Guards, Red Caps and Li'l Murderers.

Appearances

Final Fantasy

Goblins are the most elementary enemies. Their kin is almost always weak and poses no threat to the party.

Four types of Goblin appear:

  • The basic Goblin, which is the weakest enemy, found mainly around Cornelia.
  • The Goblin Guard, which usually appears alongside normal Goblins.
  • The Black Goblin can only be found at the Soul of Chaos dungeons added in the Dawn of Souls and 20th Anniversary remakes. Even though it is found at bonus dungeons, it is still a very weak enemy.
  • The Knocker is the strongest Goblin and can be found at Soul of Chaos dungeons as well as in the Labyrinth of Time, from the remakes. It is not the pushover other goblins are, but it still isn't a difficult foe.

Final Fantasy II

Goblins appear as a weak early enemy and provide a greater stash of gil in comparison to the Hornets and Leg Eaters fought at the same stage.

Four types of Goblins can be fought:

Final Fantasy III

Goblins are the very first enemies fought in a scripted battle at the start of the game.

Three types of Goblin appear, plus two dummied Goblins:

Final Fantasy IV

GoblinSum ffivds

Final Fantasy IV -Interlude-

Goblin is a Summon spell for imposter Rydia. It deals weak non-elemental damage to an enemy at the cost of 1 MP.

There are three types of Goblins:

Final Fantasy IX

Goblins can only be found early on, at the Evil Forest and the area between the forest and the Ice Cavern. Later, Goblin Mages appear at the Outer Continent, but remain very weak opponents.

Final Fantasy XI

Goblin.

Goblins appear as one of the races of beastmen. They are described as nomadic creatures which also explains why Goblins can take on more diverse jobs than any other race of beastmen, eight in total.

Another type of Goblin is known as the Moblin. The difference between a Goblin and a Moblin is in the culture. Moblins are a stationary race and have a capital near Bastok called Newton Movalpolos which is actually built below their older city, suitably named Oldton Movalpolos.

Final Fantasy XII

Goblins don't appear, but the Baknamy, a similar looking race, could be considered as their replacement. Their special attack, Goblin Attack, further strengthens the connection between them and the traditional Goblin.

Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings

Goblin.

A familiar nuisance armed with his time-tested punch.

Description.

The Goblin is the rank 1 Earth Melee summon. Its only attack is Goblin Punch.

Final Fantasy XIII

A Goblin.

Goblins are found on Gran Pulse. They travel around in packs and are often seen attacking Gorgonopsids. They are drastically different from traditional Goblins: while still keeping their green skin, they have a gaping, mouth-like hole on their chest and appear to wear roller skates and boxing gloves.

They use their traditional move, Goblin Punch which deals moderate physical damage, but they can use it only when the Goblin Chieftain bestows Bravery on a Goblin. They are notable for appearing late in the game and as such, much more powerful than their early counterparts of the series. They are nonetheless one of the weakest monsters on Pulse.

Six types of Goblins appear:

Final Fantasy XIII-2

A Buccaboo.

The goblins that inhabit the Archylte Steppe of Pulse are highly intelligent carnivores who lay traps for their prey and hunt in packs. For this reason, they are a direct threat to the hunters who also live off the plains. Climate change can cause a decline in prey and force the goblins to wander closer to human settlements in search of food. They love a good fight and like to pounce on unwary humans. We recommend staying in large groups when traversing goblin-infested lands.

Goblin Fragment

Goblins appear as enemies, and all apart from Munchkins and Munchkin Maestros appear exclusively on the Archylte Steppe.

Ten types of Goblins appear:

All Paradigm Pack Goblin allies use either Goblin Rush, Neo Goblin Rush, or Spirit Infusion as a Feral Link; Spirit Infusion is highly prized for casting Protect, Shell and healing on the entire party, with the Goblin Chieftain's version also casting Bravery and Vigilance, and Buccaboo Ace's also casting Faith.

Final Fantasy XV

Goblins.

Goblins are cave-dwelling daemons that appear in the Leide region and during the Mineside Mischief Makers Hunt. They can be fought either in caves, or out on the plains during night time.

Etymology

A goblin is a small, mischievous creature found in many European folk tales and legends. The word "goblin" comes from the Norman French word Gobelinus, the name of a ghost that haunted the town of Évreux in the 12th century.
