ProjectGorgon:Hogan's Basement is the name given to the tunnels and storerooms under ProjectGorgon:Hogan's Keep, a once abandoned guardhouse The Council granted ownership of to the staff-wielder ProjectGorgon:Hogan. [Close Friends] of Hogan can be granted permission to enter ProjectGorgon:Hogan's Basement, where a band of Goblins has been granted permission to establish an encampment. Goblinese level 25 is required to speak to the allied goblins. The goblin ProjectGorgon:Ultashk controls the door to the dangerous parts of the basement, demanding players bring him 3 ProjectGorgon:Filthy Animal Fat in order to enter.

ProjectGorgon:Malvol acts as the leader for a Goblin Clan who escaped slavery (in Goblin customs, slavery is the term for a war contract with another clan or client). Seeking to establish a home for his clan and family, he sought protection in the ProjectGorgon:Eltibule region. ProjectGorgon:Malvol leads the clan while his "wife" ProjectGorgon:Gorvessa cooks and aids in protection. She admits to serving in his "harem", but maintains that she is a ProjectGorgon:Shield expert and teacher at heart. While most of the clan remains loyal to ProjectGorgon:Malvol, prospective clan-leader ProjectGorgon:Rubgag has begun to organize a takeover from deep in the dungeon.
