Kobolds


Kobolds are the handsomer cousins to goblins and orcs. They are a subterranean race of mischeivous, troublesome and mean-spirited creatures. Kobolds are meaner and more dangerous than their goblin kin, because they are smarter, more cunning, organized and cruel. Not only do they hate and despise the larger, more more attractive humanoids, but they delight in torturing and killing these creatures just for fun, usually very very slowly...

Physically Appearance: Short thick but muscular creatures with a pale waxen complexion, no facial hair, black, silver or white hair, high hairline (hairline usually starts at the top of the head) large ears that come to a rounded point, thick leathery skin, yello and or red eyes, and small pointed teeth.

Size: 3 to 4 feet tall. Weight: 70 to 120 lbs.

Habitat: Kobolds can be found througout the world but are most common in the old kingdom. The largest known subterrianean communities are found in the old kingdom, old kingdom mountains and Algor mountains.

Favorite Weapons: Can use any, but favorites include the axe, picks, hammers, knives and swords. They adore magic weapons.


Other Notes:
1. They worship demons and evil gods, occassionally powerful dragons.
2. Sometimes sell their services as mercenaries to non-humans
3. They prefer stuffed, chain, scale and plate armor.
4. Particularly fond of gold, silver and precious stones; the treasure vaults of a prosperous kobold merchant, nobleman or king is a sight to behold.
5. Tend to be selfish, cruel, vindictive and arrogant.
6. Kobolds are predators who hunt and feed on animals and fellow humanoids, gnomes, humans and elves are among their favorites, (about 40% are also cannibalistic).
