Kobold

X Worldbuilders:

GM James R

Kobolds are small draconic creatures comparable to Goblins.

About

Kobolds belong in nests, usually containing hundreds of members. Kobolds reproduce quickly and house massive hatcheries in their underground or mountainside hideouts.

After hatching, Kobolds mature to adulthood after 1 year. Contrary to popular belief, Kobolds can actually live a very long time, up to 120 years in fact. Any kobold older then 100 years is granted the title of "Great Wyrm." But in practice, given their penchants for chaos, poor decision making, and for being the minions of greater powers, few kobolds ever live past the age of ten.

Tactics

Kobolds typically train large and dangerous creatures to serve as mounts and guard beasts, including but not limited to:

• Giant Scorpions
• Giant Centipedes
• Dire Weasels
• Giant Rats

Thelryan Kobolds

A lineage of kobolds descending from the refugee Kobolds of the fallen city of Thelrya in Amusa. unlike most Quelmar Kobolds, they are much taller and stronger, looking similar to Dragonborn. The two known settlements of Thelryan Kobolds were Thinwhistle and Drakemire Hollow, both of which had been destroyed by 893 PR.

Emerald-Touched Kobolds

A number of Koblds with emerald psionic power worked under the mastery of Smargarg in 825 PR. They were tasked with setting fires all over the surface, as Smargarg was a master of the ancient psionic art of Fire Scrying, allowing him to watch events on the surface as long as a flame burned nearby.
