Description

I had so much fun drawing this guy. I wanted the enter :iconheirtothegoblinking: OCT Goblin contest and so as I as thinking of ideas my mind wandered to comics and the Green Goblin popped into my head. Since mythology has been influencing comics for decades why not the other way around? I wanted him to resemble the Green Goblin but put a medieval spin to it. Instead of Pumpkin bombs he throws Bug bombs and has his Bag-of-Tricks on his side. He also has other concealed weapons and gimmicks on him, and instead of the classic Goblin Glider, Ozzborn trained a cave dragon to fight for him.
I may tweak his design and story here and there but for now this is it, enjoy!

Name: Ozzborn
Hair: Brownish/ Red
Eyes: Yellow
Skin: Green
Height: 6' 1

Story: Early in the history of Goblin evolution, male Goblins were able to asexually reproduce at certain times when the population was in danger of extinction. Since the establishment of the Black Tooth Mountain Kingdom, this genetic trait seems to have been breed out of the Goblins. However, because of his own lineage, the King somehow retained this ability and many years ago produced the Goblin now known as Ozzborn. It is not known if this was the first or last time such an incident accrued with the King.
Fearing extreme embarrassment and not wanting a successor to his own thrown, the King ordered his advisor to destroy the clone and lose the body. The child was to be destroyed but the advisor, who had his sights on the throne, hid the child away in the labyrinth of caverns under the Kingdom. He planned on blackmailing the King but was soon discovered and beheaded. Since the King believed him to be already dead, Ozzborn was simply forgotten about for years and lost in the mountainous mazes
Ozzborn survived in the caves fighting the evil creatures that lurked in the dark. Since he was born from the King, he somehow retained some of his memories as well, so Ozzborn was aware of who and what he was and plotted to kill the King one day for forsaking him. But he spent years lost, searching the endless forgotten ancient caverns. On one fateful day he discovered an old abandoned burned library that was home to the ancient Goblin Mystery School.
He learned that over a millennium ago there used to be a tribe of enlightened Goblin monks that tried to rise above their natural vicious Goblin tendencies and spread knowledge amongst their fellow Goblins, and so they had founded a school of enlightenment. But knowledge was not welcome amongst other, more aggressive, Goblin tribes, So they attacked the Library and destroyed everything and anyone within.
But Ozzborn found a room that was untouched by fire and years of decay. A giant pristine chamber filled with books, scrolls, and journals of the ancient world (and since he was the kings clone and had some of his memories, he was born with the ability to read and write) Thus Ozzbourn spent the next few years reading the secrets and stories of the Goblin race and Black Tooth Kingdom. He learned about magic and alchemy and began to experiment on himself becoming powerful in the process. In one scroll he learned a secret that told of an ancient power buried deep beneath and spread throughout the Black Tooth Kingdom. He knew that if he could return there and prove his lineage he would become King and then he could become even more powerful.
So he took what he learned, along with some other magical objects that were left in the library, and set off for the Kingdom that forgot all about him.
The prodigal son will return as a beacon of enlightenment only to spread darkness.
