This is sort of true, she's bringing her faith to her people anew.
Goblins in general? Or her people in the sense of the people following the same religion?
Or her people as in the gang of folks she happens to be traveling with?
In this case, Goblins in general.
We're playing in a fairly standard Forgotten Realms, where all goblins are beholden to Maglubiyet as the "one goblin god", as mostly laid out in VGtM. I wrote some extended canon about why this came to be, and about some of the teachings and faith of Maglubiyet (to fill out for our storytelling) - but in FR as standard, Goblins can't worship other gods - other gods don't answer their prayers or awaken priests.
In our game, Tymora saw an opportunity here to steal a bunch of souls/worshippers away from Maglubiyet, and in the process, gain a bunch of power for herself. Nothing in the gods' compact explicitly says they can't take goblin worshippers, it's just like... a gentlegod's agreement to ignore them. Konsi's job is to work within "civilized" society to serve as an example of an altruistic goblin that can "fit in" as well as bring other goblins into the embrace of Tymora.
At time of writing she's done well on the first part - goblins are now legal citizens in Waterdeep. On the second, she's managed to convert about 40 goblins, one of which is an awakened priestess. (Yes, I have a document with all of their names, professions, ages, genders, and personalities.)
That's a hyperfixation alright.
I tend to take the view that if I can take a load off the DM, it’s worth my time. “Here’s a document with 40 awful goblins and 10 good ones” means they can just pull the ones they like/need when they want, and focus on making content for the others :)
With the quotations it seems incredibly like an evil plan in the world,but amazing plot hooks.
