Flintspark Goblins goblins are surprisingly dedicated and zealous with their religion, and the love of fire has infected every essence of their being. Like the flames they emulate flintspark goblins are brash, impulsive, excitable, cruel, uncaring, and dangerous all at once. They live for the moment and do what they wish, all for the glory of fire. Some take it as a religious experience, while other flintspark goblins do what they do simply because it suits them. In all cases, flintspark goblins are often enamored by fire. Many specialize in tasks where they can use or be around fire.
Because of their culture of fire, flintspark goblins do not have "firemen" in the traditional sense. To put out flames would be blasphemy, so instead flintspark goblins contain fire and let what it has already claimed burn. This has ironically led to the habit of preemptive burning, "fighting fire with fire", a technique now used outside of flintspark goblin territories as a valid way of stopping wildfires from occurring. When it comes to putting out flames, flintsparks are loathe to do so but it sometimes happens by accident or purpose. To snuff a candle is much like crushing a bug, and to quench a wildfire, akin to murdering another goblin. This believe has led to many unexpected fights when torch-bearing adventurers snuff their torches to rest rather than letting them burn out slowly.
