When you run games, do you like your kobolds to be rat bastards or do you like them to be plucky little goofballs? I'm mostly in the latter camp but I like to throw my players a curveball and put them through Kobold Vietnam in a black dragon's lair
they are goblins who prefer their cocksleeves to be more legs/ass than breasts
>>98499151As they say, bigger legs means more eggs
>>98499159Same artist who was "Getting to chivalrous for this" btw.
>>98499178Guoh draws some good kobolds
>>98499133I run them as dragon fanboys / groupies, goofy and largely harmless on their own, or taking traits after the dragon that commands them. In absence of a proper master, they're willing to adore any large reptile, wyvern, dragonborn, etc.
>>98499133Furry "fandom" goes on >>>/trash/
>>984992442006 was 20 years ago
>>98499303Nobody on the board is old enough to actually remember the original fursecution first hand, not even me, I've just overhead the tales and gossip.
>>98499315It was a simpler time. Now there are worse things than furries, and the jannies keep them around as pets to make the boards unpalatable
>>98499201I run them as dragon-worshipping jeets, predominantly retarded, somewhat dangerous to their immediate surroundings, with caste systems where the higher caste actually capable of thinking, learning spells, designing traps/war machines and wrangling the retard underlings, and the lower castes which smear themselves with dragon dung in hopes of obtaining divine protection.
>>98499315I was there, Gandalf, three thousand years ago. Before /tg/. When all we had were Warhammer Wednesdays on /b/.When hating all things furry made you cool.Now, /tg/ is the furries. Anyway, on to kobolds. I tend to do both. Where there are kobolds who live in and around big cities and tend to take on the plucky little goofball tone. One of my favorite characters I ever played was a plucky little goofball kobold who grew up as an urchin on the streets of Neverwinter (rolled for backstory). Made him in 3.5, but have kept him as a concept in my back pocket and brought him out to play in several games of 4th and 5th.Meanwhile, kobolds who live away from civilization tend to be much more savage and, yeah, I like to make them like little scaley Viet Cong scuttling through tunnels to tiny for most PCs to fit, and leaving traps and setting nasty ambushes before fading away as soon as the fight turns against them. Never letting the party get as full long rest and having the party rack up stacks of exhaustion as they try to push onward.
>>98499133In my system/its core setting, Kobolds are just what you get when you have a Goblin with the Draconic General Subspecies. Short, draconic critters

Furfaggotry goes in >>/trash/
>>98505784this one gets stopped by the city watch more often
>>98504431We also used to post Titan Tuesdays on /m/
>>98504431Damn I havent seen that image in a long time
I like the idea of kobolds being a hyperadaptive race that instinctively latch onto the strongest thing nearby to serve in a symbiotic relationship. Most of the time, it's a dragon, but sometimes it's a powerful tribe or a whole city or an adventuring party. Their hyperadaptivity can also result in mutations to benefit their environment and ensure survival, like fur instead of scales for colder climates, smaller, cuter horns to appeal to certain races, or thicker legs for increased mobility.
>>98508073Ok Fuck the green with the jugs, marry the purple and I think the cyan is a fag so kill that one
>>98508073Sleazy drug-fueled 3-way with cyan and purple, love and cuddles with green. But I adore them all.
>>98499133Depends on how the players decide they behave.
>>98505825>Look mom, I posted it again!Your newfaggotry is showing.
>98499133Imagine if you played games. You wouldn’t have to ask us about what’s in them. You still would ask about kobolds because you’re a scaly faggot but you’d have some firsthand experience.No (you) for you, but have a sage instead. Maybe one day some of the tourists will read the faq and figure out what that is.
>>98509919Guarantee OP plays more games than (you).
>>98499315I was there.
>>98509919bump :)
>>98509919But I do play D&D games. It's why I'm asking, I'm curious about how other people run them
>>98508073Impregnate Green, high five Cyan while he fucks Violet
>>98499133It's a regional variation of a mining spirit, common to the Germanies.It is a shapeshifter, and spends much of it's time invisible, manifesting usually as a child, tiny wizened old man, or as a wooden idol, it is similar to other mining fairies, like Cornish Tommyknocker, though the Kobold is less helpful to miners and jealously guards the riches of the deep earth, known to replace more useful ores with arsenical "Cobalt" from whence it's name is derived.They are also related to the broader category of Germanic household spirits.You might be able to intuit from this, that I don't play D&D, and far prefer shit like Runequest or Mythras.
>98509950Of course he does. I’m sure that you do too. Fetish threads are known for that.
>>98515513To each their own, I suppose. Kobolds are basically goblins, which are basically elves in the original mythology
Hehe, I like that one imageset of a kobold rogue that got captured and punished with horrible predicament bondage.I especially love the one where she has a candle up under her p*ssy and burning her little lizard bean. I bet she loved every second of it and went back to thieving as soon as they let her go.
>>98517035Be nice to kobolds
>>98499133I would have them look like non-mammalian synapsids but I have only ever found one image that really fulfils the vision so I typically keep to using Towergirls kobolds because at least they're cute. In my setting, they serve as servants for dragons when dragons are present. While occasionally some talented kobolds will rise through the ranks, they typically sit as laborers and grunts. Though weak, they are talented in handywork often being the ones tasked in cooking, cleaning, tinkering, and the like for their draconic master. Naturally servile, without a dragon they are drawn to find a master to serve. However, the less draconic the master, the less innately compelled they are to serve them thus human masters must go through great lengths to keep them going, typically via milk and bread which they love the most of all foods. Without milk especially, they are likely to turn on their non-draconic masters and find work elsewhere.
>>98508073They look cute. But seeing them fluffy and mammal-like, they look not like Kobolds but something different. Gremlins? Demons?
>>98515984I do actually. 4 games a week, with an extra 2 games that are on rotation every other week on the same days as other games. Got another one lined up after one of the ones running ends (I'll be running that one).Puritards don't run or play games, they lack the creativity for that. They're a bunch of pearl-clutching pussies.
>>98521427Scaly kobolds come from western dragons, fluffy kobolds come from eastern dragons
Mexikobolds worship the mighty Quetzalcoatl
>>98499133Rat bastards. We have gnomes, kenders, hobbits for plucky goofballs.
>>98499244Hi anon, you seem confused! Global Rule 3 only bans furry pornography, not furry artwork. The only board to ban furry art completely is actually /mlp/.Happy to help!>>>/global/rules/3
