Bruiser

Bruisers (also called goblin bruisers)Cycle of Hatred, chapter 11 are the policing force of the goblin cities. As such most of them are goblins, even though there are also hobgoblinCompensated Bruiser and ogreArea 52 Big Bruiser bruisers employed by the goblins.
The bruisers are responsible for upholding law and order with a firm hand, and ensuring that all exchange is fair. And as the bruisers improve their weaponry and training, they have to cut off their free time.Gadgetzan Times/A Day in the Life of a Bruiser According to Muzzlecrank, the bruiser's pay in Ratchet was good.
They wander the streets of their respective cities making sure that the visitors do not create disturbances that would in any way disrupt the flow of trade. The goblins rely very heavily on commerce and do whatever it takes to keep things running smooth. They cannot allow the pettiness of the world conflicts to interfere with their business. If any members of the Alliance and Horde cause disturbances on city grounds, the Bruisers are quick to react, assaulting the aggressors and running them out of town, killing them if necessary. It is due to the Bruisers that skeletons of dead players continually litter the ground in the cities that they occupy, especially on PvP servers. This may have to do largely with players accidentally attacking players of the opposing faction by right-clicking them instead of an NPC.
If a bruiser is attempting to attack a player and that player cannot be reached, the Bruiser will shoot the player. To fix this, a player should make themselves reachable to the Bruiser. However, Bruisers will sometimes continue to shoot the player, resulting in a swift death. Shots fired by Bruisers have significant knockback.
