 {{RaceCreatures|Blin}}
 {{clear}}
 ==Character details==
 {{RT|Alignment}} Blins have a strong tendency towards evil. Though a few among them may be good, even these pretend to be evil among their peers just to fit in.<br/>
 {{RT|Age}}  A blin swiftly reaches adulthood in about 7 years. Bokoblins in particular can reach adulthood in as little as 2. Rarely does a blin live beyond the age of 30.<br/>
 {{RT|Diet}} Blins are omnivorous, but greatly favor meat and will usually only eat fruit or other flora when on the verge of starvation.<br/>
 {{RT|Names}} Unlike most intelligent races, blins infrequently have names.  "That one over there" is often sufficient.  A blin name, in the rarity it does exist, tends to sound crude or blunt when translated to {{L|Hylian}}.  Examples include Bacon, Big, Clubber, Crimson, Gandle, Karuna, Killton, Meatstick, Moe, Molblin, Muzzle, Pest, Pork Chop, Spike, and Trident.  There is usually no distinction between male and female names.
 ==Character traits==
 {{RT|Keen Smell}} You have [[advantage]] on {{wis}} ([[Perception]]) checks that rely on smell.<br/>
 {{RT|Ancestral Arms}} Blins are instinctively skilled at smashing things with blunt objects.  You are always proficient with {{i|club}}s, {{i|crusher}}s, and {{i|greatclub}}s. If you become proficient with any martial weapon, you also become proficient with {{i|moblin spear}}s.<br/>
 {{RT|Languages}} All blins speak {{L|Blin}}. A minority, including all blin player-characters, speak {{L|Hylian}} as a second language.  You can only read and write these languages if your {{int}} score is 8 or higher.<br/>
 {{RT|Subraces}} Blins come in diverse subraces. Choose one from [[#Bokoblin|bokoblin]], [[#Bulblin|bulblin]], [[#Moblin|moblin]], and [[#Miniblin|miniblin]].

 {{RT|Beast Tamer}} Bulblins are remarkably adept at manipulating animals to their needs.  You are proficient in the [[Animal Handling]] skill.<br/>{{RT|Armor Adaption}} Unlike most blins, bulblins are trained for armor usage from a young age, and usually live in basic armor as soon as they learn to walk.  You are always proficient in [[light armor]].  If you would otherwise become proficient with light armor, you also become proficient with [[medium armor]] and [[shield]]s (but not [[Heavy Shield (item)|heavy shields]]).  If you would otherwise become proficient with medium armor, you also become proficient with all shields.  If you would otherwise become proficient with heavy armor, you can add your {{dex}} modifier (max 1) to your [[Armor Class|AC]] while you wear heavy armor.

 {{RT|Large Target}} Your [[Armor Class]] decreases by 1.<br/>
 {{RT|Laze}} Moblins are well-adapted to recovering quickly from battle.  It's just one reason they are so favored as forces in [[Ganon]]'s armies.  Whenever you complete a [[short rest]] and roll your {{hc}} die to recover {{hp}}, you add your proficiency bonus to each roll if no other effect also adds your proficiency bonus.

 {{RT|Spider Climb}} Miniblins possess an uncanny, supernatural ability to climb.  You have a climb speed of 25 feet, which you can use even if both of your hands are occupied.  You can climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings, without needing to make an ability check.
