Goody Goblin
Son of a Goblin Chief, he had once been a normal goblin boy, but when his mound was invaded, his nurse sought to hide him by giving him a drink with powdered Reverse Wood, reversing his nature, making him the one polite male goblin. He was dressed up a girl and was safe until the invasion was overthrown. After his father discovered what happened to his son he was exiled for politeness. He went to the Good Magician's Castle for advice on how to solve this defect in character but decided to keep it. He then married Gogo Gobliness who had a curse on her that she would die before the age of forty. After recovering from grief of her death, he eventually married Gwendolyn Goblin.

Famous quotes containing the word goody:
“It is now many years that men have resorted to the forest for fuel and the materials of the arts: the New Englander and the New Hollander, the Parisian and the Celt, the farmer and Robin Hood, Goody Blake and Harry Gill; in most parts of the world, the prince and the peasant, the scholar and the savage, equally require still a few sticks from the forest to warm them and cook their food. Neither could I do without them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
