Squat little [[Humanoid family|munchkins]], the bodkin family resembles the goblins of Welsh myth. Bodkins prefer to fight from a distance, letting fly with long-distance arrows from their shortbows, while supporting their front-line friends with [[Buff]].
 
They have green skin and wear robes and hoods made of simple brown cloth. Other varieties of bodkins have different skin tones and will swap out their clothing as they become more deft with their bow, and gain new accolades to reflect this.

Bodkin archers appeared from the beginning of the game. They are able to protect their allies with [[Buff]] and can call for backup from more of their kind. The archers also have a tendency to waste their turns by pulling out a watering can and are more likely to miss their shots when enraged. Starting with Version 5.0 of the game, vicious bodkin archers began appearing in the [[Netherworld]], as well, gaining the ability to perform [[Rain of Pain]].

The Archers act as normal enemies in the first area of chapter 2, but also appear as NPCs in the Prickly Plains section accessed through the blue teleportal. Several are friendly towards humans, and will reward the Builder for countering their own parlaying perils.

The fishing Archer explains that, being newcomers to Alefgard and the Dargonlord's legion, his kind are bullied by other monsters on the regular. In particular, the Killerpillars cause great strife for the little goblins, to the point that a duo of sharpshooters mount an attack on the main nest in the area out of fear that their village will be wiped out if they don't.
