Discipline and order are their virtue and strength, and these qualities are combined with an impressive military organization capable of standing up to the greatest and strongest armies of elves, dwarves, and humans. Stubborn and unyielding, hobgoblins are the enemies not only of many groups of adventurers but also of entire regions and nations, inexorably threatened by their armies.

This book contains all the information needed to know about hobgoblins, to confront them, defeat them, destroy them. And yet, this very book might also succeed in making you love their cause and convince you to join them to live or die side by side... The book is the second title in the Speculum Naturale series, in the series called Libellus Sanguinis, and was found in the library of an ancient monastery. Its author opens a glimpse into a world and a race that have been little known and not feared enough: the hobgoblins. He describes the characteristics, psychology, and culture of hobgoblins, paying particular attention to their society and military organization, and accurately discusses their military techniques and capabilities.

Moreover, you will find ideas for adventures centered around hobgoblins, and an accurate description of a typical hobgoblin fortress, which you can choose to conquer or, if you wish to play hobgoblin characters, to defend against adventurers seeking defeat.
