YOU ARE ALL KOBOLDS
A tale of the cleverest, quickest, strongest and luckiest of kobolds, and of those who weren't lucky enough.

As the title would indicate, you are all kobolds. Your encampment has been hit hard lately, with many raiding parties never returning and a plague washing through the population, picking off many of your kin. The elder, with his dying breath, told you that this place has become cursed, and it is time for the tribe to move on.

As the survivors of the plague, it is your duty to find a new location and to rebuild your tribe. Little equipment remains in the camp (not that there was much before); much of it has been burned to cure it from the plague. You know of a few nearby locations from which certain equipment may be stolen.

The starting tribe:
1. Fuzz, FuzzyZergling

His greatest prize is a pretty stone he found while stealing from a dwarven settlement a while back, although he is sure that its some kind of gemstone or that it has some kind of magical powers, he isn't very bright and its just a regular stone.

Perks: Handy, Linguist

Personality Notes/Distinguishing Features: Mahtkii has always been very handy with materials, and can make seemingly anything out of seemingly nothing. A pile of twigs, a little water, and a campfire become a basket overnight. A raw hide and some sturdy sticks become a tent in the blink of an eye. Some clay, some water, and a roaring hot fire make for good enough dishes that the Elves would give him food for them sometimes!
After losing his mate and children to the undead, Mahtkii fled his home in search of a new life, away from the horrifying screams that echo in his dreams. After wandering for days in a haunted marsh, he came upon the rest of the other wave of Kobolds, and followed them. What had he to lose?

Injuries: none

*loincloth

THE KNOWN WORLD

Spoiler: Map Drawn by Kobolds (click to show/hide)

This map was drawn with coloured chalks stolen from a human alchemist long ago. Traditionally, only the village elder has been allowed to use them, under supervision of scouts who had information to add.

The kobold cave is in the top middle of the map, surrounded by steep, fertile hills, from which a river flows. At the base of the hills the river splits, feeding the 'big lake' to the East and flowing off far into the South-West.
In the fork of the river, a human farm sits, with a small building where the farmer lives.
A little South and a little West of the farm is a training camp. They don't usually bother the kobolds too much, since they're rookies and are quickly left behind.
In the forest to the South-West of the cave, a human village has sprung up. They cut a lot of trees.
South of the training camp a slightly larger town sits. Caravans sometimes come there from the far West.
About a day's travel to the South-West rests a human keep. The kobolds try to keep away from there, because the soldiers are well-armed and sometimes know what they're doing.
Roads connect the human settlements, and continue off to the West.
In the South-East a night-beast lives amongst gently rolling hills. It sometimes takes humans away, but it's never caught a kobold.

The Dead
1. SmallOne, Spade

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Wave: 0, the initial tribe

Friendly and clever for a kobold, an all-round nicebold and finder-maker whose small frame sadly was not resilient to the plague that swept through the tribe. He died of plague three days after the elder.

*plaguetastic loincloth
*dreamcatcher (resting on grave)

Spoiler: Stats (click to show/hide)

There are 4 stats: brain, brawn, briskness and buddiness.
You start with one at +1, two at +0 and one at -1.

Brain applies to activities requiring intelligence. Tools and traps you create might be more effective, and you're more likely to use tools effectively. Evaluating items and others, identifying animals and plants, and medicine are all affected by this stat.
Brawn is a measure of your physical strength. It'll increase the amount of damage you can take, your outgoing damage, and your ability to use blunt or large-bladed weapons, as well as help you keep going while injured. It'll also help you carry more and perform certain tasks more effectively.
Briskness relates to finesse and speed. You'll move quicker, dodge more effectively, strike more accurately with most weapons and be better at performing delicate tasks.
Buddiness is your ability to relate to and read others, and sometimes your ability to be cute. Social interactions will be more efficient between you and all creatures, and you can tailor your creations to make certain creatures happier. Making friends of neutral creatures, and neutral creatures out of enemies is much more likely for you.

Spoiler: Skills (click to show/hide)

Rules for the initial group of kobolds:
You get 6 points to put in skills, plus a free 1 point in sneaker. You can have one skill at +3, any others have a limit of +2. Sneaker can also be at +3 without counting towards this limit.
If you pay +3 into an attacking skill, you can put a free +2 into another attacking skill (or save it for later); you get a free +1 if you pay +2. Transferable skills, and all that. Free points can't be used on blocker or dodger.

Rules for the first incoming wave of kobolds:
You get 8 points to put in skills, plus 1 free point in sneaker. You may only have one skill at +3 (sneaker does count towards this limit), the rest have a maximum of +2.
The rules for free attacking skill points described above still apply.
Additionally, you can come with one or two pieces of reasonable equipment; not metal, but otherwise things roughly of the calibre we've seen so far.

Swimming isn't a skill. You're all moderately able swimmers (you won't drown just by being put into water).

Non-combat skills:
Crafter - making stuff into other stuff, sometimes using stuff
Sneaker - not being noticed, and often taking stuff (sometimes a combat skill)
Gatherer - taking things that already exist; includes herbalism, butchering, fishing, farming
Harvester - breaking things to get what you need; includes digging, woodcutting
Fixer - stopping creatures from dying once they've already decided to try
Watcher - noticing stuff (sometimes a combat skill)
Negotiater - trying to get other creatures to do things for you
Socialiser - getting other creatures to enjoy your company
Placater - getting creatures to believe you're not an enemy, or not worth killing

Combat skills:
Stabber - fighting with sharp things - knives, daggers and short swords
Lasher - fighting with whippy things - whips, maybe vines or chains
Spiker - fighting with pokey sticks - spears and pikes
Chopper - fighting with heavy blades - axes and large swords
Basher - fighting with blunt weapons - hammers, maces, rocks and the like
Shooter - fighting with bows, crossbows and blowguns
Thrower - fighting with slings, or just plain throwing stuff
Brawler - fighting without using other stuff
Blocker - using shields or certain kinds of armour to take hits without taking damage
Dodger - trying not to take hits at all

Spoiler: Trading Perks and Flaws (click to show/hide)

Trading perks and flaws MAY take in-game time. The likely exception is when using the first clause below, as an existing player trying to gain access to perks/flaws that were added after you generated your character.

When a new generation of perks and flaws are introduced, existing players will be able to access them for a limited time in the following manner:
Take a skill of level 3 or higher down by 2 levels to swap an old perk or flaw for one from the new generation.
CURRENT STATUS: no special offers right now!
Outside of the grace period mentioned above, any player can:
Take a skill of level 4 or higher down by 3 levels to swap an existing perk or flaw for any other.

Finally, this is (at the moment) only available once:
Take a skill of level 5 or higher down by 5 levels to gain an additional perk AND flaw.

Spoiler: Perks (click to show/hide)

Perks are good things about your kobold. While they may lead you to make poor decisions, they will never strictly give you a disadvantage. You get two perks of your choice.

Blender: your skin can shift colours to match the light behind you.
Benefit: you have bonuses to sneaking; these decrease as you wear more clothing.
Incompatible with: none.

Cute: only the most hardened of civilised creatures will raise a weapon to you, instead of opting to capture you and keep you as a pet.
Benefit: bonus to social activities and convincing others not to kill you
Incompatible with: none.

Handy: you have an above-average understanding of materials, and have an easier time when you try to create things.
Benefit: bonus to crafting rolls.
Incompatible with: clumsy flaw.

Large: you're much larger than the average kobold.
Benefit: slight HP gain, can wear large items (but not normal kobold-size items) and wield bigger weapons.
Incompatible with: none.

Linguist: you can very quickly pick up broken versions of other languages, and can even read some of their words.
Benefit: you are capable of conversing with other races, and gain a bonus to bargaining with them.
Incompatible with: stupid flaw.

Mighty: you are amongst the mightiest in your tribe. You feel confident you could even defeat a Dwarven child in unarmed combat.
Benefit: slight HP gain, bonus to things enhanced by brawn.
Incompatible with: puny flaw.

Muncher: you'll chew about anything even vaguely edible you find, and your stomach can handle this.
Benefit: you need only eat 1 meal a day, a third of what a normal kobold eats.
Incompatible with: voracious flaw.

Speedy: you move faster and react faster than most creatures. Most importantly, few creatures can run away as quickly as you.
Benefit: improved initiative, bonus to things enhanced by briskness in combat.
Incompatible with: slow flaw.


2ND GEN PERKS

Assassin: attacking things when they don't know you're there is always a good idea, but for you it's even better.
Benefit: not only does attack from stealth give you a bonus to hit (as usual), but it also gives you a bonus to damage. Additionally, if you get a kill straight from stealth, you can quickly attack another target without losing your stealth bonuses.
Incompatible with: unsubtle flaw.

Clawed: your feet and hands have claws like knives, and you wield them appropriately.
Benefit: your natural weapons can deal significantly more damage, and you use the better of your stabber or brawler skill with them.
Incompatible with: none.

Copycat: once you've seen something done, you can almost always do it again in the same circumstances.
Benefit: you get a sizeable bonus to repeat tasks in a way you've seen someone else do before.
Incompatible with: none.

Foresight: visions warn you of coming dangers.
Benefit: you may be alerted in advance of any large-scale disasters. Additionally, you have a much easier time avoiding encounters while wandering the wilderness. This extends to any group you travel with.
Incompatible with: aggravator flaw.

Tough: your skin is as thick as a crocodile's, and your body parts stay attached to you unusually well.
Benefit: HP gain, natural damage resistance.
Incompatible with: disease-ridden flaw.

Venomous: when agitated, venom drips from your teeth and from beneath your nails.
Benefit: when you deal damage with natural weapons, there is a chance you also deliver a dose of venom.
Incompatible with: none.

Spoiler: Flaws (click to show/hide)

Flaws are pretty much universally bad. If you get into situations where they affect you, you'll fare poorly. You have to choose two flaws.

Clumsy: you often drop your equipment or break delicate objects. Crafters try to keep their work from your hands.
Penalty: you have a small chance of fumbling any delicate or dextrous task you undertake.
Incompatible with: handy perk.

Dark-Blind: you have trouble operating at night or underground without a light source.
Penalty: penalty to most tasks attempted in the dark.
Incompatible with: none.

Disease-Ridden: while you're resilient enough to the plague to still be alive, it has still hit you.
Penalty: you might randomly suffer a penalty to activities you try.
Incompatible with: tough perk.

Puny: you are scrawny and your muscles bulge like dried-up worms.
Penalty: slightly decreased max HP, penalty to things enhanced by brawn.
Incompatible with: mighty perk.

Scaredy-Cat: loud noises, large creatures, and a great variety of other things will send you into a panic.
Penalty: in dangerous situations, there is a chance you will suffer a penalty.
Incompatible with: none.

Slow: you move sluggishly, and take longer to react to things than your fellow kobolds.
Penalty: penalty to things enhanced by briskness.
Incompatible with: speedy perk.

Stupid: you have a difficult time understanding the most basic of abstract concepts.
Penalty: penalty to things enhanced by brain.
Incompatible with: linguist perk.

Unsubtle: maybe you can stay unseen, or move silently, but doing both of these things is generally beyond you.
Penalty: sizeable penalty to sneaking.
Incompatible with: assassin perk.


2ND GEN FLAWS

Aggravator: you have difficulty avoiding trouble, and when you seek it it's often of a greater scale than you hoped.
Penalty: you are more likely to encounter creatures in the wilderness, and if you are looking for a fight it may be more dangerous. This extends to any group you travel with.
Incompatible with: foresight perk.

Bleeder: though you're no more susceptible to injury than other kobolds, when you are injured you tend to take longer to heal.
Penalty: penalty to ignoring wounds, penalty to fixer checks made to heal you.
Incompatible with: none.

Directionless: you have a terrible sense of direction and often get lost, having to backtrack to a familiar location.
Penalty: when you are in charge of navigating, journeys may take anywhere from their normal time to twice as long.
Incompatible with: none.

Distrac-: you can't pay attention for long enough to finish... ooh, a tasty butterfly!
Penalty: penalty to repetitive tasks.
Incompatible with: none.

Drowsy: you tire easily, and often have to take power naps during the daytime.
Penalty: you must sleep for an extra 3 hours (i.e. one update) every day.
Incompatible with: none.

Voracious: you have a huge appetite for good food, and you make sure to feed it.
Penalty: you eat twice as much as a normal kobold (6 meals a day).
Incompatible with: muncher perk.

Absolutely fine. I'll just mention that I added the fixer (doctor) and watcher (observer/concentration) skills, 'cos I forgot them before.

Also, as a note, combining all crafting skills into one will be much less useful than it might seem to someone used to dwarves, due to kobolds' limited crafting ability. Not that you won't be able to do anything, just that it'll start basic and will take a lot of ingenuity to come up with something you haven't seen before. That said, you'll still be massively useful in turning gathered items into basic weapons and reducing stolen clothing to kobold size.

Maxi, with that build you can still choose 2 attacking skills at +1 for free. When you pay for an attacking skill (any combat skill except blocker or dodger) you get another one for free at 1 less than the one you paid for. So you could take spiker or chopper at +3 instead, get the other one at +2 for free and still have 1 point to spend on another skill.

Sorry, Maxi, limit of one skill at +3 still applies, the only time it doesn't is with sneaker. You can go
+3 one weapon, +2 another, +2 dodger, +1 something else and +1 sneaker
or
+2 one weapon, +1 another, +3 dodger, +1 something else and +1 sneaker

Halberds, if you manage to get a hold of one (and you'd be able to wield one without penalty thanks to your large perk), will primarily use the chopper skill, though occasionally you might use spiker with the spike on the end. In addition, you could hit with the shaft with the basher skill, or block with it using blocker. If the blade got taken off it could become a slasher weapon.
