Hobgoblins blinded early in life are often abandoned or killed by their peers, but some are deemed worthy to join the ranks of the hobgoblin seers. Hobgoblin seers divine distant targets prime for attack, and guide legions to battle. A seer rarely enters direct combat, preferring to relay their discoveries to the legion, though a seer is seldom seen without a complement of guards, as the death of a seer can be a severe blow to the greater hobgoblin host.
