*'''Worg Rider''': A goblin with this specialization learns to fight cowardly from the back of a worg or a similar creature.

::At 1st level, he gains Mounted Archery as a bonus feat, even if he doesn't qualify for its prerequisites. In addition, he can skirmish from the back of a mount.

-

::At 8th level, he gets +1 competence bonus to AC while skirmishing, which stacks with any other competence bonuses to AC from skirmish abilities. In addition, his mount gains the same competence bonus to AC that he gains whenever he skirmishes (including additional AC bonus from other sources of skirmish). For example, a goblin scout who normally has +3d6 damage/+3 AC skirmish gets +1 to the skirmish AC, increasing it to +3d6 damage/+4 AC. Then, whenever he gains that +4 AC bonus from skirmishing, his mount also gains the same +4 competence bonus to AC at the same time he does.

::At 8th level, he gets +1 competence bonus to AC while skirmishing, as the scout ability, which stacks with any other competence bonuses to AC from skirmish abilities. In addition, his mount gains the same competence bonus to AC that he gains whenever he skirmishes, including additional AC bonus from other sources of skirmish. (For example, a goblin scout who normally has +3d6 damage/+3 AC skirmish gets +1 to the skirmish AC at 8th level, increasing it to +3d6 damage/+4 AC. Then, whenever he gains that +4 AC bonus from skirmishing, his mount also gains the same +4 competence bonus to AC at the same time he does.)

::At 15th level, he gains Improved Mounted Archery as a bonus feat, even if he doesn't qualify for its prerequisites.
