Goblinization

A term used in the timeline of the roleplaying game Shadowrun to depict an event that took place on April 30 2021.

10 percent of the world's population suddenly transformed into new racial types and the result of this transformation were the ork and troll races. This transformation caused widespread panic and a violent reaction toward the new races.

In the following years racial discrimination against the orks and trolls continues, most likely because of their physical appearance and bias caused by old myths and lore. These new races differed from their mythical counterparts; they didn't live under bridges or eat children (well, most of them anyway).
