Content

Five years ago, Sedgewick Forest was suffering from a massive influx of Goblins. This created many environmental problems. Red Wings are native to the forest -- our progenitors are the native Tree Mantids -- but goblins are an invasive species with few natural predators. The forest's small population of elves and druids could not slow the rising goblin numbers, and the forest was in danger of complete destruction!
That's why the Red Wing Collective is proud to serve as predators of these goblins, ensuring that their numbers never overwhelm the wonders of the forest. We also ensure that weak and sickly goblins are culled, so the goblins that remain in the forest are powerful, hardy members of their species!
But the Red Wings are humble learners and we've adopted many techniques found in goblin culture. Our system of indentured servitude, while less violent than goblin methods, is similarly effective. We've also discovered from goblins that the accumulation of vast wealth can lead to happier lives. Goblins may seem like unimportant bipeds, but they have much to teach us.
That's why we are proud to announce that the Red Wing Casino was developed in part through goblin subcontracting. The casino was built in an abandoned castle that needed extensive renovation, and by partnering with goblins, we were able to open the casino in less than two years!*
While other races seek to force goblins out of Sedgewick Forest, we believe that the future is through partnerships. That's because Making Friends is the Way of the Mantis!
* We are contractually obligated to mention that more than 50% of the development of the Red Wing Casino was performed by Dwarves, which are a similarly-sized but completely unrelated biped race. Dwarves and goblins share animosity... but we are above such petty conflicts and can see the beauty of both races. We hope to bridge the culture gap between dwarves and goblins to bring about a new era of racial harmony.**
** Note: there is no ETA for racial harmony at this time.**
