Not necessarily. Most of the crap that occurs in the novels has no real
place in the game world itself. This is just another case of an author
getting his wires crossed. In all regards, ever since SR1, Orks, Trolls
and similar races (ghouls, and so on) have been the only ones to Goblinize.
You're either born a Dwarf or an Elf or you're not. Simple as that.
