A Goblin Tricycle Raider is a chaotic and humorous homebrew or setting-specific creature in Dungeons & Dragons. It typically consists of a goblin riding a makeshift, rickety tricycle outfitted with crude weaponry, often used for hit-and-run tactics. These goblins are known for their reckless enthusiasm, zipping around battlefields or city streets, causing havoc, and gleefully cackling as they unleash improvised explosives, crossbow bolts, or even slingshots loaded with questionable ammunition.

The tricycle itself is often cobbled together from stolen parts, powered by goblin ingenuity and sheer determination. Some variations may include enhancements like saw-bladed wheels, smoke-belching exhausts, or even ramshackle rocket propulsion, making them as dangerous to their riders as they are to their enemies. The Goblin Tricycle Raider’s strategy revolves around speed and unpredictability, darting into combat, striking quickly, and then retreating before foes can properly retaliate.

Mechanically, they might have high Dexterity and mobility-focused abilities, such as the ability to Dash as a bonus action, disengage easily, or perform drive-by attacks. Some versions might have a chance of crashing on failed checks, adding an element of chaos that fits the goblin aesthetic. DMs can introduce them in goblin warbands, as street nuisances in lawless cities, or as comic relief encounters.

Despite their often laughable nature, a swarm of Goblin Tricycle Raiders can overwhelm unprepared adventurers, forcing creative solutions to deal with their speed and numbers. Whether as low-level foes, minions of a goblin warboss, or even as ridiculous mounts for daring players, they add fast-paced, absurd fun to any game.
