The kobolds definitely do.No. Lost an ad&d cleric to a single kobold once though, but we don't talk about that...

Yeah, my original argument was that, prior to 5E, they were TPK machines.in 3.5 those things were so freaking scary that you made sure the answer would probably be no at any level. in 5e they are harmless
indeed... ghouls?... ohhh helllllnaw we are going to tie ourselves to the ceiling over here using those climbing supplies & try to shoot with... uhh... anything! That was my last arrow, can I throw my rations for falling damage on the ghoul below?Yeah, my original argument was that, prior to 5E, they were TPK machines.
Not only is it logical, it’s the kinder option. Maybe not for the PC they eat, but if you do have your ghouls ignore paralyzed PCs in favor of attacking active ones, a TPK becomes significantly more likely. I speak from experience.Yeah, they dumbed down a few monsters more than I'd like in D&D, though the 3.5 version = nasty. Still, if properly run, the first time one of those ghouls in a pack managed to paralyze someone (solid chance with low level characters), I'd be having them all turn on that character. 2 hits when down to 0hp is autokill. There's no logical reason they'd be stupid or forget their eternal hunger to be "fair."
