L11. Kobold Barracks

This spacious cavern is heady with the pungent scent of mildew. The stony floor is covered with more than a dozen bundles of moldy leather, stained fabric scraps, and torn pillows that serve as kobold beds. Three of the beds have kobolds sleeping in them.

If the characters have made a lot of noise in any nearby caverns (including by opening the chest in Area L10  or fighting in Area L9), the three kobolds are pretending to sleep and have their weapons hidden. A successful DC 12 Wisdom (Insight) check uncovers their ruse. Otherwise, any character who approaches within 10 feet of the sneaky kobolds causes all three to leap up and attack.
