Kobolds

Kobolds are a rat-like race that lives within caverns, and mines, often aggressive and seem to claim ownership of the underworld.
 * Overview

Kobolds hold a horrible reputation among the Dwarves; the two races being mortal enemies eternally fighting for control of the underworld, though more of a simple nuisance among the humans, as they invade old or abandoned mines and sometimes surface to mingle within smaller human settlements.

The creatures are seen wearing cloth scraps and stolen dwarven clothing along with some oversized human clothing.
 * Equipment

They also value metal tools greatly, stealing picks from dwarves and humans, as it allows them to dig homes and collect ore, which they value for its shine, and sell what they deem useless, like iron to the humans as they do not know the true value and assume it's worthless with the rust associated. Kobolds can be seen with wax on their heads, or full candles which they use to illuminate their ways through dark tunnels, which is something they learned from the dwarves who do very much the same, though through a more sophisticated manner.

Simple creatures, they are not often capable of speech, but it is not unheard of one to know basic Common.
 * Intelligence

They do not know how to forge metals or create much more than primitive tools and must steal from other races.
