Kobolds

Well, which is it?!

Whoever came up with the idea that kobolds are a subrace of dragon should be taken out and beaten with a spoon.

Of course, I respect the opinion of those who may disagree with me ... provided that they are taken out and beaten with a spoon.

Kobolds?

I like all kinds.

Fried and on a stick

EDIT: Poll just added.

As is -- reptiles -- works fine for me. Never saw a special need to make them good sorcerers, dragon blooded, or any of that jazz, though I guess it's okay.

I voted "something else entirely". In my campaign they are a magical word to summon demons or lightning storms that cancel the magic of magical items. In fact I don't like kobolds. So if a player speaks of kobold, I say that there are no kobolds in that campaign, that he is metagaming, and that unknown to his character "kobold" is a world of uber power that summon demons, and that now he should just roll for initiative against the demon.

If I find something I like that I find in Dragon, I go with it. Last monts Ecology of the Kobold states that Kobolds are an offshoot of the dragon races.

I actually like the 3e dragon-kobolds, but for me, the multi-breed canine variety from Suikoden will always be the One True Kobold.

I still like the first edition canine version, but the 3rd edition hybrid is growing on me...

I hope you are joking.

See the entry by dougmander "It May be an Imaginary Universe, but it's all Mine"

I read the recent ecology of the Kobold in Dragon. I liked and will use it.

I voted Dragon because that's what they think, and that is good enough for me. I think it is weird that they changed from Canine to Dragon/reptile as time has gone on, but so be it. Now someone help me with this +2 chainmail; I think Biggus Geekus is about to come after me with a spoon!
