kobolds don't have that quality armour. they just use tunics and loincloths. I also don't think they have shields.

[DG]

But that is a kobold who refused to bow to stereotypes.

[Neruz]

It's a Kobold adventurer who looted a Goblin.

[Deon]

Come on, don't be assholes grumblers.

There's such thing as imagination. It's easy to discuss someone's work and try to find something "wrong". You don't have to do it though.

Nice kobolds, Prorogue. They have a character.

Also it's a copper/leather armor and a copper short sword for me. Am I right, Prorogue?

P.S. Also what's with "cute" kobolds meme? They stab people to death with poisoned daggers and throw venomous bugs at travellers, they live in smelly caves and build traps and dig holes to kill unaware people. They are nasty little critters exporting nuisance and receiving death.

P.P.S. I was bored at work so here is a quick mspaint kobold . There's no photoshop, no tablet and a very bad mouse. It reminded me of my early attempts in Ms Paint. Nostalgie .

Long time no see Deon!

It has a very Gollum-like feel.

[Ironhand]

Stopped sketching my demon.
The visage of terror is gonna stay just a visage.

Did some gratuitous photoshopping to the webcam pic, though:

I really like those goblinish-looking kobolds that Prorogue is putting out.
Looks like he's acquired random pieces of armor and just layered them on.

Like an adventurer.

Gee, I was starting to think that there was some secret art pack that I didn't know about, and that the appearance of kobolds was somehow set in stone by Toady himself. You know, rather than being "k."

Yeah, it's copper, since kobolds don't have steel or iron. As far as I know, there's nothing in the game to prevent kobolds from wearing armor, so if he pounded out of a bunch of copper daggers or something to make it it's free game as far as I'm concerned.

Well, since you asked...

# Core90, PROPER KOBOLDS, (Future): Of course, this means different things to different people. To us, a proper kobold is neither a chihuahua man nor a mini-draconian, but instead sort of a small mammaloreptilian humanoid with pointy ears and yellow eyes with a penchant for trickery and mischief, context-based sublanguage, poisonous critter collection, traps and kleptomaniacal hoarding.

[Vester]

So I was right about them being like cygnonathids?

[Leafsnail]

I've imagined Kobolds as something a bit like Gollum only reptilian too.

Hmm, if only I could draw.

[JoshuaFH]

For the record, I totally imagine them as cute and cuddly under their masks. It just seems like if they were going to raid a dwarven settlement, they'd want to look as menacing as possible.

That's what we in the TvTropes business call an "informed ability".

that's sort of why I imagine their faces looking like an angry emote.

like this: 

Like, yeah it looks angry, but in the end its still technically a cute little smily face.

[Ironhand]

That's a goblin, though?
But whatever. I love your goblins, Fault. So endearing, so awesome.

I guess I like seeing goblins and kobolds as sort of generic names for unpleasant little nasties.
Except goblins are the more organized, war-like ones, and kobolds are sort of just nomadic goblins.

[Leafsnail]

While Kobolds are meant to be primitive, their copper weaponry does trump the wooden weaponry of the elves .
