Kolbolts

Kobolds are craven reptilian humanoids that worship dragons as demigods and serve them as minions and toadies. Kobolds inhabit dragons’ lairs when they can but more commonly infest dungeons, gathering treasures and trinkets to add to their own tiny hoards. After the battle of the ancients the Kolbolts were excepted as citizens in the realm of Eskairia. The kobolds has for the most part adjusted to this new life style. They hold normal job's, trade, and own business. Some kolbolts still serve the dragon born as they did the dragons they just get paid for it.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Winged Kobolds. A few kobolds are born with leathery wings and can fly. Known as urds, they like to lurk on high ledges and drop rocks on passersby. Although the urds’ wings are seen as gifts from Tiamat, the Dragon Queen, their has not been a winged Kobold in 500 years.

Genetics and Reproduction

Kobolds are egg laying creatures.

Ecology and Habitats

Tunnelers and Builders: Kobolds make up for their physical ineptitude with a cleverness for trap making and tunneling. Their lairs consist of low tunnels through which they move easily but which hinder larger humanoids. Kobolds also riddle their lairs with traps. The most insidious kobold traps make use of natural hazards and other creatures. A trip wire might connect to a spring-loaded trap that hurls clay pots of flesh-eating green slime or flings crates of venomous giant centipedes at intruders.

Dietary Needs and Habits

Carnivores.

Origin/Ancestry

In the beginning they were created by the blood of Dragons. Now they can reproduce their own kind.

Conservation Status

Strength in Numbers: Kobolds are egg-laying creatures. They mature quickly and can live to be “great wyrms” more than a century old. However, many kobolds perish before they reach the end of their first decade. Physically weak, they are easy prey for predators. This vulnerability forces them to band together. Their superior numbers can win battles against powerful adversaries, but often with massive casualties on the kobold side.
