Grovel, Cower, and Beg: As an action on the kobold's turn, the kobold can cower pathetically to distract nearby foes. Until the end of their next turn, their allies gain advantage on attack rolls against enemies within 10 feet of them that can see them. Once the kobold use this trait, they can't use it again until they've finished a short or long rest. Pack Tactics: the kobold has advantage on an attack roll against a creature if at least one of their allies is within 5 feet of the creature and the ally isn't incapacitated. Sunlight Sensitivity: the kobold has disadvantage on attack rolls and on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight when the kobold, the target of their attack, or whatever they are trying to perceive is in direct sunlight.

Over the long history of the Mashiq, there exists a persistent population of bandits, rebels, and outlaws known as the saggasu. They live on the fringes of society, in the hills and forests of the Mashiq and are more of a social class than a specific ethnic group. Sometimes employed as mercenaries or servants, the saggasu claim no king and no ruler believing that no mortal has the authority to govern another. Socially marginal, they have never been afforded legal protections and are often captured and held in bondage. They have few qualms regarding who they raid, though their numbers swell and their targets become more directly members of the upper class during times of hardship.

The saggasu are only really found in the Mashiq, though they count members in Kanesh and southern Shanindar. They make their camps in the inaccessible hills, forests, badlands, and mountains of these regions and descend into the fertile vales and lucrative trade routes for plunder and profit.
