Kobolds (Multiworlds) (3.5e Race)

Kobolds

Here are noted differences from the base Kobold.

Kobolds in Multiworlds were created by Loki under the Kyfferberg (Gunderland) to shape a more agreable (for him) race of Dwarves. They soon expanded in all of Mittelreich, but they were soon attacked and slaughtered in great numbers by Hyborian rangers and knights, so that apart from their homeland in Gunderland, and some subterranean stronghold in Harzberg, there are just a few refuges in most of Mittelreich. Many of them, however, flew in Nordheim, where their creator lives, delving deep citadels in Untersvart and hidden coves in Midgard mountains.

Relations

Kobolds have a feud with Gnomes, and are crushed without mercy by Dwarves and Æskmann. Dark Elves like to capture them and to exploit them as slaves. Hyborians are more tolerant, but anyway mistrustful. Kobolds hate most other races and struggle to survive and win, with occasional raids.

gollark: If you instead lift a 50kg thing 100 metres, which is useful for combat and many practical situations I'm sure, that is 12kcal i.e. about a tenth of a cereal bar.
gollark: According to `units`, the amount of energy needed to list a 100kg thing two metres is 0.4 dietary calories. That's totally manageable.
gollark: The Consortium.
gollark: Or with some I/O bits, if you really wanted to... search... real-life sorted lists?
