The general consensus in the fantasy zeitgeist is that Goblins are evil because they steal. The reason for this stereotype is that the Goblins hold the view of communal ownership. Goblins believe that an individual can only own what they can carry. In Goblin culture any unused item is free for the taking to anyone who needs to use it, once the individual has finished using the item they can leave it anywhere they feel like as long as it is accessible to the next individual who needs to use it. For this reason, Goblins don’t bother tending crops, since that would consist of working on something that could end up being taken by someone else. Goblins rely on scavenging, this creates conflict with other races because Goblins are nomadic and the items they take end up being left several miles away.
