Background

Lore

Kobold Dragon Mage

Kobolds are small, reptilian humanoids with physical similarities to dragons. They lurk in dark places, usually tunnels and mines, and use their cunning to even the playing field between themselves and stronger creatures. Kobold dragon mages use magic to carry out their schemes. The presence of one in a kobold warren is powerful evidence for the kobolds' claim to draconic heritage.
