It's simple: find the long, winding path down through the caverns, leave a trail of bodies to find your way out. No [FLIER] required.

I'd be concerned that one couldn't trust the caverns to preserve items as the surface world does (Afterall, you can't trust any other aspect of it.) I haven't actually tried, but you should test it before getting yourself lost.

And if all else fails, there's the tried and tested "Wizardry" method: graph paper, math, and cartographic skills.

Or you could just jump into an eerie pit when you find one. Then Deebus would be an inter-dimensional explorer and you wouldn't have to back-track your way through the caverns. By the time you seek out Hell there won't be much left on the surface for you to do anyway, right?

I was thinking more like kick other things into the pits.

I once had a demon dodge his own deadly dust and fall into the eerie pits. True story.

Dust attacks are extremely unpredictable things. Nearly any creature can kill itself with a dust attack.

I mean no offense. But that looks nothing like this.

No, it's a simple brown.  In DF, at least. 
In some mythos, kobolds are even reptiles.  Crabs seems to have taken inspiration from them.

I think the slaughter part is what made them angry.

I'm aware of kobolds varying in appearance and such in other works.

From my experience kobolds are usually red, seeing as how they're covered in their own blood. Useless vermin.

I love kobolds. I edited the drawing because I missed the "yellow glowing eyes" wan't sure about the skin colour though. I once found a pic of bogeymen which finally gave me an idea about how they should look like.

Then don't ask if they look a certain way.  There is no right answer to:
Don't kobolds have orange skin?

Well, aside from Will's.  But it's only true because it's funny.


So, I didn't mean to imply you didn't know, but if you ask a question regarding how they look, it's only natural to assume you didn't know.

Presumably a reader would know that the context is in Dwarf Fortress.
I do apologize for my lack of clarity.
