Kobold
Creature
The Kobold is a small, scaly, dog-snouted creature of the deep tunnels and old mines, weaker even than a goblin one-to-one but far more cunning as a group. Kobolds do not win fights by strength; they win by traps, by numbers, by knowing their warren of tunnels better than any intruder ever will. A kobold lair is less a place to be fought through than a deathtrap to be carefully disarmed, and the deep-folk of the Iron Hills regard a kobold infestation the way a household regards rats with engineering degrees.
