Message: <blockquote data-quote="Gez" data-source="post: 901454" data-attributes="member: 1328">My players (pacifically) met a kobold tribe once.The kobolds laired in the ruins of a human village. They were ruled by a Dragonne (actually, a half-brass dragon dragonne) named Alraone. Among the little things I made to flesh them out a bit, they used to wear large hoods and "snow goggles" during day to bear the bright light. As a "racial feat" for them, they were allowed to use Weapon Finesse with the half-spear, wielding it with great speed and disconcertingly efficient non-orthodox moves. At dusk, when the light became bearable for them, they frequently made little celebration, singing in their acute voice in dissonant melodies welcoming "the quiet time" of the night, when it is comfy to work or leisure.Now, if you're looking for ideas of dungeon, that won't help you. Use giant vermin -- an underground tribe of kobold had several monstrous centipedes with them, when not using them for attack or defense, the arthropods were used to move carts. Don't forget traps, lots of traps -- kobolds are skilled at making them, and quite paranoid. A good idea is the "double trap": one quite crude trap, that anyone with some ranks in Search may find without problems, and disable quickly, hiding a much harder to find trap. Intruders look at the corridor, find a trap, disable it, assume it's now safe, advance and fall in the real trap. In underground areas, a simple trap is the firedamp zone. Kobolds don't need torchs to see, but most of their enemies do. So, you've got a passage that is enclosed (maybe by two siphons), full of firedamp, and the ceiling there is quite frail. Intruders swim in, light something, and boom, blast damage, fire damage, and collapsing ceiling damage.</blockquote>
