History Fridge / Goblins

* The reason [[TheSmartGuy Kin]] can't figure out which key to grab is because [[http://www.goblinscomic.com/comic/03022013/ the writing that tells you which key to grab was on the ceiling]] which is where they were looking from, so she couldn't have seen it. And the reason [[spoiler:Minmax can't figure it out either]] is not immediately obvious. [[spoiler:Minmax uses Intelligence as his DumpStat, but then he could just read the riddle aloud and let the others figure it out. Except Minmax exchanged the ability to read for a bonus]].

** Rest assured that Kore knows what the deal whit the axe is and won't dare to destroy [[spoiler:his own creation.]]

* Throughout the story, Minmax reveals a number of stat trades he did that are, frankly, impossible (and lampshaded at times). One wonders, why would a GM put up with such an insufferable munchkin, let alone humor him. Look at Minmax's character growth over the course of the comic. It actually seems he's played by a master role player who specifically took up the role of a munchkin and purposefully played up how messed up such a single-minded person would be, then worked to give him character development. Minmax's player and Hubert have probably played games before, and Herbert would have been somewhat aware of what his player could do with such a character, hence the allowing of such patently silly, well, MinMaxing.

* Possibly also FridgeHorror or Fridge Hooray depending on how you look at it: We now know that [[spoiler: [[http://www.goblinscomic.org/comic/08132016-2/ there are multiple]] Prissans]], but then a demon tells Big-Ears [[spoiler: the thing in the first ax '''[[http://www.goblinscomic.org/comic/08282016-2/ is "pure"]]''', and that [[http://www.goblinscomic.org/comic/09082016-2/ the first Prissan is a hammer]]]]. Suddenly [[http://duke.a-comics.ru/fmk/ one of the alternate realities]] from the Maze of Many whose adventuring party we never got to see could potentially have been brought up as plot-relevant {{Foreshadowing}} instead of just more filler EvilTwin examples, if [[spoiler: the angel sealed into "the Hammer of Jale" from reality 207 was sealed into the first Prissan in reality 156]].

* [[http://www.goblinscomic.com/06292005/ Dies Horribly lived in fear his whole life because of his name.]] But his name wasn't related to his being doomed. His name was a ''trigger'', designed so that [[spoiler:[[http://www.goblinscomic.com/10142011-2/ when he met the demoness]] [[http://www.goblinscomic.com/10182011/ he would volunteer,]] [[http://www.goblinscomic.com/10212011-2/ be eaten]] ... [[http://www.goblinscomic.com/10242011-2/ and in doing so destroy her.]]]]

* The backstory of Mr Fingers involves a farmer making a DealWithTheDevil to cure his son of nightmares. Now consider that in relation to what we learn about deals with demons in [[http://www.goblinscomic.com/10142011-2/ this strip]]. Not only did that deal unleash the kid's nightmares upon the world, but the farmer is probably undergoing the same AndIMustScream fate as the demoness' pet orc.

* Ward, of the cursed party. It goes to show that when Kliks eat magic items, they take on the properties of said item. The Axe of Prissan is made of metal. Kliks eat metal. Considering that the Axe of Prissan is a soul jar for an immortal, nigh-invulnerable demon/devil capable of single-handedly destroying the realm, what do you suppose would happen if one of the Kliks saw the Axe of Prissan and thought it looked tasty? [[http://www.goblinscomic.org/12032015-2/ Made worse here.]] Since the Axe of Prissan is a shape-shifting item by the rules of the realm, its magical abilities could warp whatever Klik ate it into a horror, like Evil Klik. So the realm would have not one nigh-unstoppable horror to deal with, but two, and at the same time!
* Forgath is now about half made up of grafts made by some of Klik's kin. Given what happened to Dies Horribly, are we sure we can trust Forgath to keep himself under control? [[http://www.goblinscomic.org/11262015-2/ Yup.]] But here's some ''new'' horror: Klik wasn't an adult. He might even have been a ''child'' by the standards of his species. And he died in agony.
