Thaco: I don't mind dying, but having to wait for it like this is torture. and the Viper clan goblins are all chalk-white.

The goblins have a wide range of skin colors, including various shades of green, yellow, orange, brown.On the other hand, it appears to be played straight with demons and The Undead.Ears the Paladin confirms this with his Detect Evil ability.

In one scene Thaco compares the Elite Guards' motivations to those of the standard city guard, and for the rest of the comic, it's presumably okay to assume that the Elite Guards are Always Lawful Evil.

It's also justified in the case of the Elite Guard: a cadre of people who've signed up specifically because they're more brutal and sadistic than the regular city guard.

The Goblins (who are usually considered Always Chaotic Evil in RPG settings) and such are portrayed as creatures who are just trying to survive in a world where they are seen as mere XP Fodder.

Although it's never said out loud, it's clearly a deconstruction of the trope.

Always a Bigger Fish: 'The bigger creatures always kill the smaller creatures, it's just the nature of the world!'.

Alternate Universe: The Maze of Many allows multiple versions of Kin, Minmax and Forgath to exist in the same place at once.

As of the comic immediately after, he's starting to put it together.

Alone with the Psycho: In this comic, Kin is standing directly in front of Kore, who has a history of slaughtering 'monsters' at the slightest provocation, and is only remotely safe because he hasn't yet caught on that she's a Yuan-Ti.

Almost Kiss: Between Kin and Minimax they are interrupted by Ruby.

All There in the Manual: There is a the Maze of Many Alts list that collects most of the different alts that have appeared so far.

Affectionate Pickpocket: Ruby steals Kin's necklace (that Minmax offered her) by giving her a parting hug.

Kore may also qualify, since he's got a shield as big as he is.

Advancing Wall of Doom: A wall full of spikes makes one of the Maze of Many's rooms a Timed Mission.Minmax, naturally, and without realizing the implications, immediately names the sword 'Oblivious'.

To this end, the less concept its wielder has of what it is and how it works the stronger it gets. In fact, Kin theorizes that his ignorance might make the weapon more powerful his sword treats 'nothingness' as a power source ( somehow), so the more it is 'nothing' the more powerful it becomes. Minmax's oblivion sword is only able to exist because his mind can't fathom the concept of oblivion.When Ears points out how the spell works, she realizes she should have taken more damage earlier in the battle, and promptly dies. Drowbabe misunderstands the purpose of the Mage Armor spell, thinking it lessens the damage she takes (when it actually makes it easier to dodge incoming blows).The information is put to good use by Greena the Demon Slayer. Absurd Phobia: Not-Walter the Pit Fiend, a very powerful demon lord, is afraid of.Absurdly-Spacious Sewer: Well, it is an RPG world, but a sewer with sculptures in it is pushing things a bit.One of the goblin characters, Big-Ears, is a rare instance of a truly gentle, heroic and noble paladin, while the paladin status of the most opaque and brutal villain, Kore, thus far is one of the most foreboding mysteries. It features detailed world-building (including quite a few whole-cloth, background creatures with detailed biologies) and characterization, particularly of the villains. A side plot follows a sixth goblin (Dies-Horribly) who goes on a solo adventure arc quite against his will. The main story follows five members of a cannon-fodder goblin tribe (Thaco, Chief, Big-Ears, Complains-of-Names, and Fumbles) who decide to stop being cannon fodder and become Player Characters.

It's a role reversal of the typical adventure RPG Dungeons & Dragons, though familiarity with the game isn't required to understand what's happening. It follows the adventures of a band of, well, goblins, as they fight off evil adventurers. Goblins : Life Through Their Eyes is a webcomic written and penciled by Ellipsis 'Elli' Stephens note formerly Tarol 'Thunt' Hunt before coming out as transgender in 2019, and colored by her wife, Danielle Stephens (and later by Cheyenne Wright of Girl Genius).
