Re:Goblins

Well, I imagine superstition and leeriness would come into play (humans are able to deal with spiders but a lot of people are still frightened of them), but in any case why are you so sure they were capable of dealing with them? Sidriss' magic always misfires so she would've had very little hope, and while McGrew would win most one-on-one battles, goblins hunt in packs. Outnumbered and surrounded he would be hard-pressed to beat them.

I think that anyone in the dungeon who even had half a brain cell would be scared or a t least warey of Goblins.
- They hunt in packs
- They are stupied so mostly they don't realise when they have been beatern
- The thout of being eateren would I imagine scare even a warrior like McGrew.
I'm not to sure about The Hobgoblin.
It could be Tiny.

Why are Goblins scared of Dungarth?
In Series 3-4 are Goblins under the control of the opposition or are they looking out for themselves?
In series 4 I think there were two groups of Goblins, those who come from the forest of Dun and those who come from Duntley wood rather than the same group tracking the Dungeonere from one level to tyhe next.
I also think that the level 3 goblins of series 3 were a different group to those found in levels one and two because they cwould not be able to get to level 3 because of the forcefield.
The forcefield was the reason why there was little traffic between the two levels apart from the Dungeoneres and those who could teleport themselves.

That is a good question, maybe they themselves were frightened of what they would find there(Goblins probably do have feelings to as well!!!)
I loved Hob Goblins , especially the first time we saw it in s3.
"Extreme danger a Hob goblin in the level"
Bigger and nastier than a silly little goblin!!!!

I'm a huge fan of the hobgoblins too - and think the rarity of appearances kept the fear factor high. It firstly served to show the danger of Level 3 in S3, guarded by such a creature, which was so large on appearance that it blocked the view to the room exit. The appearance on the concluding episode of S5 was fantastic; remember being haunted at that; for with such a neutral character as the gatekeeper, one would never be quite so sure on their safety and protection from such a fiend ~ but loved the lightning attack. I think it also demonstrated the power of Hordriss' control when you see the dungeoneer sat right beside the hobgoblin in the class to earn the great causeway code.
Nothing like a bit of genuine fear is such a program.

Possible but I doubt it...
All the goblins look the same so there's a good chance that the 'magic exam' Hob-G is anonymous. Also TINY would have been busy busting up Skarkills legs, no time to take on Hordriss (or indeed, any kind of cognitive process! Would he/it have the brainpower for such a thing?).
One thing that is interesting is that the Hob-Goblin appears to be quite neat and tidy. After the team have finished spying, everyone has left the room and the Hob-Goblin has taken his stool with him!
