You could not simply add a few xp to the monster budget. Maybe it was convenience, because a crocodile was a little bit harder to find that way.But I question: why no index, that redirects crocodile to giant lizard. And wyhy does the CR system have to be that inflexible? Why not just add a few xp? At least for calculating the difficulty of an encounter. We already have weighting factors.Your Idea of the kobold fits mine: not too fancy racial powers, but some optional ideas.And some example equippment options to make things interesting.</blockquote>
