They’re malicious but of little actual menace. Catch kobolds in their lairs, where they are almost certainly hard at work mining, and such a description might be fitting. No one ever suspected that being underestimated was the kobolds’ goal.  \nKobolds are meticulous creatures with sorcery in their blood, a variety of reptile with a strong work ethic. Discounted as pests or worse by many others, kobolds are along-suffering race with many talents and clever tricks. Only the foolish overlook the threat that kobolds actually pose.  \nKobolds have scaly skin, varying in color from rusty brown to reddish black. They have strong teeth, and their hands and feet have long digits tipped with very small claws. A kobold’s face is like a crocodile’s, with a jaw that can open wide enough to hold a whole melon. Constantly alert and wide, the eyes of a kobold range in color from burnt ochre to red. A ridge of small, hornlike bone juts above each brow and sweeps backward, the protrusions growing larger and more pronounced toward the rear of the skull.  \nKobolds are pragmatic about fashion. They dress appropriately for the occasion, which includes finery for special celebrations and ceremonies. While an individual kobold enjoys looking distinguished and fine, tailored or inlaid clothing is an extravagance seen only in the wardrobesof tribal dignitaries and leaders. Most kobolds spend all their time mining, however, and working kobolds wear work clothes.  \nFootwear does not exist in kobold society. The idea of wearing footwear has never occurred to kobolds, not even for comfort. Kobolds rely heavily on their double-jointed legs and articulated feet to maintain their speed and balance. Moving across rugged terrain poses no difficulty for a barefooted kobold, whose feet are so naturally tough and callused that gravel and rough stone cause no pain.  \nKobolds are meticulous about their teeth and claws. A flat stone in every kobold dwelling serves as a tool for polishing claws. Kobolds chew roots and bones to strengthen their gums and clean the surface of their teeth.  \nOver the course of time, three subspecies evolved from the original kobolds. Those who had already completed the Draconic Rite of Passage became Urds (Draconic for “ones above”), 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, wingless kobolds are envious of those gifts and don't get along with the urds.  \nSecond are the Wavecrest, who trace their ancestry to the Dragon Turtles. Finally, the Earthbound, or common kobold. These two subraces share a common appearance, but each has a distinctive body odor that kobolds can instantly detect.  \nMost kobolds have also adopted a cowardly demeanor when it suits them. This attitude, coupled with their size, has drawn pity from other races, sparing the kobold in question. As such, kobolds are not fearful creatures (no more or less than any other race) but understand in their shrewdness to survive, that some approaches work better than others. Kobolds are not a stupid race by any measure and often as Kobolds grow and mature, some become inquisitive regarding the outside world.  \nThese individuals often leave the tribe (usually in secrecy) striking out on their own. Once a kobold does this, however, they are usually marked for death from their own kind. The progressive actions of said individual also help them to overlook the kobold general rule and many an enterprising kobold end up working for the other humanoid races as miners, laborers, servants and attendants. A precious few kobolds (usually the ones talented with magic) find wealth, fame and glory.  \nSpecialized melee combatants are rare among kobolds, but they’re easily distinguished by the chitin armor they wear. Particularly strong and brave kobolds become dire w","cbCaitbLaYl28M6i","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitbLaYl28M6i","pdf",9167161,"English","# Kobold Origins and Reputation\n## Physical Characteristics\n## Clothing, Footwear, and Daily Habits\n## Subspecies: Urds, Wavecrest, Earthbound\n## Social Behavior and Outsiders\n## Combat, Cavalry, and Battlefield Tactics\n## Traps and Tunneling","[{\"question\":\"How are kobolds commonly perceived, and what is their true purpose?\",\"answer\":\"They are often dismissed as filthy pests with little real threat.
