[QUOTE="Ovinomancer, post: 6989021, member: 16814"] In my games, the kobolds would also love to make that deal, and would, but it would be to grow the size of the tribe as much as possible so that the stronger races can't subjugate them anymore. My kobolds [I]hate [/I]being weak, and will do anything it takes, including pretend to be weak and subservient, to undermine stronger creatures and humble them. This is their cultural outlook -- being kept would rankle them endlessly, but they will to [I]pretend [/I]to be kept to increase their numbers and capability. Kobolds individually are weak. Kobolds attacking at night, with forged armor and weapons, in waves of 100s, are terrifying. And their goal is to burn and break towns and cities, to prevent the other races from ever having enough strength to lord it over the kobolds. Now, you can call that evil, and I'm sure it is so in a number of contexts, but that's how my kobolds think. My goblins are a bit more mercenary, though, and tend to make deals that benefit the individual, even at the expense of the tribe. [/QUOTE]
