Mine Goblin? My memory is hazy, but did they show up in one of the earlier, rookie dungeons?

I believe they're in the same tier. There can be variants of the "same" race (Half-Lords and Lords are technically the same race, but on different tiers), such as the "Ice Blood" undead variants Kanami can summon or the High Ogre race Oniwaka is part of that's basically a more human Ogre (smarter, but weaker physically; although, because of Oniwaka's parentage, his natural strength is already on par of that with an Ogre's). There's even the mini-orcs Rou met who took up home in the goblin community's old cave (they're smaller than regular Orcs, but smarter and were crafting their own tools; Boarcs [Boar-Orcs, Boa'Orks? Can't recall the exact way it was spelled] are an evolution of Orcs and are thus on a higher tier).

I consider the Vampire Noble to be a variant race of Vampires as well, by the way. Same tier, but just plain superior. Like a better pedegree.
