Kobolds existed while humans and goblins fought a war. Surviving as scavengers at first, but soon finding peace below ground in rapidly expanding self-dug caverns. Not only did communities grow at a rapid pace, but innovation did as well. Kobolds were some of the first to invent new forms of metal forging, arcane tricks, and its rumored they invented gunpowder - a myth that [[Goblin]]s take offense to.
Today Kobolds still thrive underground but many have found solitude in cities upon the surface during this era of peace. Their inventions fetch high prices in markets and scholars apprentice to work under kobolds to understand now centuries old draconic-written texts.
