Kobolds are tiny, dark-green-scaled humanoids with faces shaped somewhat like a dog's muzzle. They are often seen in the company of orcs and goblins, especially when those races dwell underground, the kobold's preferred habitat. In such situations, kobolds are firmly emplaced at the bottom of the pecking order; while goblins have their wily intellects to bring them onto a more even footing with the physically powerful orcs, kobolds are, in short, both weak and stupid in the extreme. It is often speculated that the race lies under some kind of curse, so plagued they seem by eternal troubles.
Generally, kobolds speak the Takargu of the goblins and the Angrak of the orcs; they have no tongue of their own. A tiny folk, they stand no more than seven to nine dimins tall, and have incredibly fleeting lifespans, rarely living more than twenty-five years. Perhaps their only saving grace is that, given the opportunity to learn about more than the view from the underside of an orcish boot, they leap into life with a simply unsurpassed gusto, treasuring every experience as if it were their last -- which, given their congenital disadvantages, rarely takes long to be the case.
