Estovir

Estovir was once the king of Catapult mountain, but the goblin's meteoric rise through the once warring bands of Starlight goblins came to a crashing halt when he crossed paths with the barbarian Crush.

When Estovir was growing up, he witnessed ongoing turmoil as goblins killed each other, pillaged each other's villages, and passed gold back and forth through conquest. As he grew older, it became clear he was much smarter than most of his goblin allies, and started to bend them to his will. Before long, he was conquering villages himself, but instead of putting his enemies to the sword, Estovir brought them into the fold.

Unbeknownst to him, another goblin was gaining territory quickly, the necromancer Nog. Nog would go into villages already slaughtered and burnt, resurrect some goblins and bolster his ranks that way. Estovir ended up forging an alliance with Nog, but it was short-lived. Estovir warned Nog's tactics were gruesome to even some of the grossest goblins, and did not like Nog's ambition. Nog felt Estovir was controlling and often wrong, and lacked the killer instinct needed to last in the region. Knowing it was only a matter of time before Nog betrayed him or tried to outrank him, Estovir brutally massacred Nog's closest bodyguards and forced Nog into exile in a shack outside Starlight.

From there, Estovir brought his wolf companion and many of his villagers to sack the half-orc controlled starlight pass. With huge numbers, Estovir forced Grognak's forces (led by Magon) into retreat and claimed the mountain for his own. He nicknamed his new fortress "Catapult Mountain" and moved half of his tribe to guard it. A group of his more industrious goblins kidnapped Shield dwarfs from Redwall and had them construct a giant catapult that they planned to aim at Grognak's camp.

This, however, did not go to plan. Crush and Faragon smashed the camp, destroyed the catapult, and fought Estovir, slaying the king. Afterward, they wandered the mountains, finding Estovir's village and attacking even more of the goblins. The rest of the tribe forced Crush to retreat to Starlight, but on the way, Crush saw the footprints of an Exile...the goblin Nog!

After Crush installed Nog as the new goblin king, Estovir found his body pulled back into unlife, but this time as a brainless zombie, forced into thralldom by the very goblin he exiled. His spot on the right hand of Nog was short-lived however, when Crush returned to the mountain with Faragon, Grognak, and Ogba and slayed both of them and reclaimed the mountain, killing or forcing all remaining goblins to flee. Today, Estovir's band is thoroughly disbanded, existing as only a few small groups of individuals living in fear of half-orc vengeance.
