You aren't in the mood for butchering a whole bunch of innocent civilians... right now.
6, 4
You kick over a tree and hot-foot it through the foliage while the sentries are distracted. You might be the size of a rouncey, but you do know a thing or two about moving quietly, after all. You dip around the back of the homestead's walls and leap over them, using your wings to give you a bit more of a boost (oh, for sustained flight!). The pigs are already squealing and panicking over the activity of the kobolds - your appearance adds a little more terror to their cries, but not so much as to alert the kobolds rushing to the other walls. You snatch up several in your mouth, spearing some through your claws to fit them on your arms, two more you clutch in your foreclaws, and then you leap back over the wall just as the kobolds spot you. A handful of arrows rain after you and in moments you are back into the woods.
You race away with the terrified pigs, moving with the aid of your hind limbs and wings, until you reach a boggy patch of ground. You shove the living pigs into the swamp mud to keep them put, pile the pigs that are already carcasses up and proceed to roast them - unevenly, but to your satisfaction. You feast.
You do have half a dozen pigs still alive (in varying condition, admittedly). They're terrified, but they aren't going anywhere soon.
A) Bring them back and let them root around in the swamp outside your lair. It's a start of a more reliable food supply, if nothing else.
B) Nah, just roast and devour them too.
Still, your hunger is sated for now. Do you want to make a habit of this?
A) Yes, let's raid kobold homesteads for stockpiled food and livestock regularly. (This will represent a significant source of food for you.)
B) No, we might want to pursue a different relationship with them in future - whether that's trade, lordship or a pile of burnt out husks.
And what do you care to do now?
A) Back to the lair. We might as well stick around, do a little light hunting, and wait for Gugujib to report.
B) Back to the catacombs. We have unfinished business and unsalvaged loot.
C) Head to one of the main kobold villages in this region.
D) Search the swamps for a new challenge.
E) Search the swamps for a new source of wealth.
F) Something else?
