But if you really want them to meet the kobold first then have them meet him. Just don't tel them that he's a kobold.This can be accomplished any number of ways. Such as the characters are walking through the ton/city of your choice and hear a muffled cry from the alley way. When the move to investigate, as any adventure worth his salt will do, the will find the corpse of a man. His throat slashed and the flesh discoloed from some vile concotion. As they move through the ally and investigate, a small form will leap from the shadows and vault up the alley walls and escape. Make some roles and let the characters try to follow. If they roll well, they see glowing red eyes from the darkness, and hear a sibelent voice taunt them as it gets away. If they roll poorly then they may only get a dry chuckle for their feeble attempts.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> Now when thy finally meet the mojh and his wirey sidekick they've built up in their minds how dangerous he is. They've tried to imagine all the terrible ways this mysterious and deadly foe could kill them. And he works for this mojh we've been working against. How much nastier is he then we thought? A little mystery can do wonders for jump starting a good villian.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> -Ashrum</blockquote>
