"Vermin" is the word most other races use to describe the scheming Kobolds, and not just because of their rat-like faces. Conniving and opportunistic, Kobolds can be surprisingly intelligent, but possess the wisdom of an anthill; many of them are convinced magic simply does not exist. Kobolds can only remort into Goblins, and should only be selected by players who are REALLY looking for a challenge.
- Abbreviation: Kob.
- Racial Size: small.
- Racial TNL: 666 XP.
- Not Terrible At: Fusiliers.
- Terrible At: everything else.
Comments
Kobolds are made to receive much lower hp and mana gains in spite of relatively average intelligence and constitution (in comparison with a human), making their hp and mana pools actually shallow puddles. For comparison's sake, they receive hp gains comparable to a sprite's hp gains, and their mana gains are comparable, but often worse, than a sprite's hp gains.
Additionally, they enjoy the benefits of much slower regeneration of hp/mana when sleeping.
Moreover, they have a spell cost penalty of 30% while their fail rate is arguably the worst of the races, an impressive 40%.
To make matters further worse, kobolds also have a negative melee damage modifier as well as, naturally, a negative archery modifier. Their stealth modifier is a matter of debate, but their small size could mean they are stealthier than humans, or at least average.
Kobolds low TNL does mean that they can be used as a pathway to a Human remort class.
