Know the six documented minion races
The official Malignus press kit names goblins, kobolds, orcs, gnolls, bugbears, and ogres as minions who can serve the Boss monster. These names tell you which races appear in the game. Inspect the individual before deciding how to use them in your dungeon.
Distinguish race from individual traits
A race name and a personality trait describe different things. For example, the developer shows Superstitious as a trait with its own explanation. Open a minion’s Status tab and read its traits before assuming that another minion of the same race will have the same needs or complaints.
Treat preview comparisons as examples
In one player preview, the player described goblins as faster workers who made more mistakes. Treat that as a preview example rather than a measured bonus or a comparison across all six races. For day-to-day assignments, check which jobs an individual may take and set the priorities that fit your dungeon.
