Relationships[]
- Dynaheir is mildly exasperated by M'Khiin, though impressed with how un-goblin-like she is. M'Khiin in turn is somewhat curious about Dynaheir's strange mannerisms, but doesn't explore too deeply.
- Glint is intrigued by M'Khiin. He will favorably compare her to "regular people", whom he finds boring.
- Curiously, Viconia seems to sympathize with M'Khiin's struggles and finds her presence comforting.
- She and Jaheira establish a sense of mutual respect due to their shared connection with nature.
Biography[]
| “ | When asked about her past, M'Khiin grunts and says you'll sleep easier if you don't know her story. Eventually, she shares with you that her goblin tribe was a vicious and brutal one. As a shaman, M'Khiin commanded some degree of respect, but her abilities also brought her a maturity the other goblins lacked. She wanted desperately to escape from the cruelty of her life, but the other goblins valued her abilities too much to let her go. One night, a goblin scouting party came across a deer caught in a thicket of brambles. They killed the animal and carried it triumphantly back to camp. M'Khiin waited until the others had stuffed themselves on raw meat and fallen into a post-meal stupor, then crept away. She's been on her own ever since and has found herself persecuted by humans at every turn. She joined Baeloth Barrityl with the understanding that she would be presented as an "exhibit" but not made to actually fight—a promise Baeloth broke the minute the opportunity presented itself. |

Dialogues[]
| M'Khiin's my name, of the Grubdoubler clan. | |
| One of my kind. Even you, one who knows the ghost dance, who walks the spirit path, even you look at me and see nothing but a goblin. | |
| I'm a shaman. Spirits listen to me. They do what I ask, if I ask right. | |
| You can't hear the dead? Lucky. | |
| Fear's good. Makes you careful. Keeps you alive. | |
| I smell goblin. Dead goblin. Best kind. | |
| Wonder what happened to them. | |
| You wouldn't. You're no goblin. These aren't your kind lying dead on the ground. | |
| Depends how the spirits feel about being called. They usually don't like it much. Stay back. | |
| Don't know. I'll try. Spirit! Open your clouded eyes. Leave the past behind you. See the truth of now. | |
| You're all dead. What happened to you? | |
| They won't tell us anything useful anyway. | |
| They hate me because I left my tribe. | |
| Fifteen years I lived with goblins like that. Should've left sooner. |
