• BASH - The ability to break inanimate objects. The DIFFICULTY of the action is determined by how hard something is, examples are shown on the chart.
  
• BULLY - The kobold has mastered the ancient schoolyard martial art of bullying. A kobold can attempt to bully (i.e. threaten to seriously hurt) another creature to make that creature perform one action. The difficulty of the action is equal to Brawn (for strong stupid creatures) or Ego (for weak smarter creatures) of the victim. The bully must be able to communicate to the victim to be able to use this skill.
  
• DUELIST - DANGER! The Kobold is a seasoned veteran, and by using Duelist can re-roll a failed attack roll. This skill does not require a Brawn Roll.
  
• LIFT - The Kobold is especially brawny and by using this skill can carry an additional ITEM without penalty. The Difficulty is equal to the number of items the kobold is attempting to carry. Each time the number of items in the kobol possession changes, the kobold must remake the lift roll. Failure results in everything falling to the ground.
  
• SWIMMING - The Kobold can swim. Duh! The DIFFICULTY of the Swimming depends on how fast the water is moving.
  
• WRASSLE - The Kobold is trained at grabbing living things and putting them on the ground. The DIFFICULTY of this action is equal to the Combat Dice of the target. After a successful WRASSLE, a Kobold can spend one action to stuff a small living critter in his mouth. Chewing does 3 DAM per turn.

• HIDE - The ability to conceal oneself in the shadows or behind cover. The DIFFICULTY of this action is up to the Mayor.
  
• LACKEY - DANGER! The ability to cast a magic spell. See KOBOLD MAGICK!
  
• TRACK - The ability to follow a trail whether in town, in the bushes, or underground. The DIFFICULTY of this action is up to the Mayor.
  
• TRAPS - The ability to set traps, or disarm them without being harmed. The DIFFICULTY of "searching" for traps is 2d6. The DIFFICULTY of disarming a trap is up to the Mayor. Remember, if the kobold fails the roll, the trap goes off with them at ground zero. The DIFFICULTY for setting a trap, is 1 die per damage caused by the trap.
  
• SPEAK HUMAN - Some Kobolds have dedicated their lives to learning the speech of their favorite prey. With this skill, a Kobold can speak and understand 1 word of Human per point of EGO; Write down your Kobold's vocabulary on the Kobold Reference Sheet. If a Kobold attempts to speak or understand anything other then these words, the DIFFICULTY is determined by how many words are in the sentence (1 die per word)!

• BARD - Kobolds don't have a great oral tradition, and most of their storytellers are just big fat liars. A Kobold with the Bard skill can lie. The DIFFICULTY of lying to another player Kobold is 3d6, 4d6 to lie to guards, and 5d6 to lie to King Torg (ALL HAIL KING TORG!), and 6D6 to lie to VOR himself.
  
• COOK - Training in the culinary arts. The recipe determines the DIFFICULTY.
  
• COWER - DANGER! Most Kobolds lack the sense of self-preservation needed to try and avoid taking damage. Those Kobolds that do try and get out of the way are considered cowering weaklings. By COWERING a Kobold increases their Combat Dice by 1 until the end of their next turn. This does not require an EXTRANEOUS roll.
  
• DUNGEON - The ability to climb, hang from ropes, drive stakes, and do those other nifty things that Adventurers like to do in dungeons. The DIFFICULTY is determined by the mayor, or is 2d6.
  
• TRADE - DANGER! The Kobold has trained long and hard to be a good dickerer, bargainer, or used horse salesmen, and so can re-roll any result on any chart. This skill can be used during Kobold generation, and does not require an roll.

• ATHLETE - The Kobold can leap, jump, roll, climb, and otherwise call upon their Koboldosterone. The DIFFICULTY for any Athletic action is up to the Mayor.
  
• FAST - The Kobold is a sprinter and can increase their MOVE this turn. The DIFFICULTY is equal to 1 die per additional square of movement.
  
• THROW - The Kobold can hurl melee weapons, babies and gear at their foes. The DIFFICULTY of throwing something is equal to the Combat Dice of the target. When in doubt a thrown object does at least 1 DAM. Inanimate objects have 1 Combat Die.
  
• SNEAK - The ability to move quietly and to remain undetected. The base DIFFICULTY for this is 3d6, but it depends on what you're trying to sneak past.
  
• STEAL - The ability to take a piece of gear from someone else without him or her knowing that you took it. The DIFFICULTY of stealing from another Kobold is 3d6, and the DIFFICULTY of stealing from anything else is up to the Mayor. If you fail the roll, the target notices you -you little thief!

• + USELESS: You have no discernable positive qualities, whatsoever.
  
• + ANIMAL CHUM: Ever since you were just a little pup, you have had a special way with animals. Animals will not attack you, unless you specifically attack them.
  
• + BOUNCY: The gods have decreed that this Kobold will not be falling to his death. No matter how far you may fall, or how much damage is taken, your Kobold will always have at least 1 HIT after hitting bottom and will bounce into a random adjacent square.
  
• + FATTY GOODNESS: You have lived the good life, and a round, pudgy belly is the big reward. You start the game with 1d6 additional HITS from your impressive bulk.
  
• + TROLL BLOOD: One of your ancestors was a bit of a swinger. You have the wondrous ability to regenerate damage. You can spend 1 full turn (doing nothing else), to licking your wounds to and gain 2 HITS. Note: You can only lick your wounds, when you have them (i.e. after taking damage).
  
• + WINING SMILE: Your Kobold has a wide, toothy, friendly smile that inspires both trust and camaraderie in men, and causes most women to think you are very cute (or vice versai). As long as you are smiling, humans will not attack you! (That is of course, until you do something out-and-out wrong, like stealing a baby or eating a cat.) Note: The Player must actually be smiling for the Kobold to reap the benefits of this edge.
  
• + FULL OF TRAITS: You gain an extra roll on the traits chart and begin the game with two random traits instead of just one. If Full of Traits is rolled again it should be ignored and the roll remade. Vor just isn't that nice when it comes to handing out traits.
  
• + EXTRA EYEBALL: One of your parents was a Wizard's Lab Experiment. Due to all of the spells cast upon them you were born with an extra eye located somewhere on your body. At creation you may locate this eyeball anywhere on your body. This grants you a _1 Die Bonus to situations where your extra eye is able to see something you wouldn't normally be able to see.
  
• + GIANT BLOOD: One of your kobold ancestors was into “big” lovers and so your family has always been on the large size. You gain 2 points of Brawn and about a foot in height. In dim light, you are often mistaken as a Hobkobold.
  
• + METAL HEAD PLATE: You have a large metal plate that has been inserted into your forehead. This questionable fashion statement gives you +2 Armour HITS.
  
• + SIAMESE TWIN: You are connected at the side with another Kobold and as a result gain an extra 5 points to distribute among your attributes and an additional roll for armor and may wield an additional weapon during combat. Feel free to argue with your twin loudly and constantly throughout the game.
  
• + STONE SKIN: Your skin seems harder than the average Kobold. You can take much more punishment than your average Kobold. You gain 1d6 addition Armor HITS.
  
• + EXTRA ARM: Due to some bad breeding, for instance your mother smoked or drank while in labor, you have on extra hand and can carry and wield one extra weapon or one extra item. Although this looks cool, you might be dubbed “retarted” by other Kobolds. You simply see yourself as special.
  
• + HIGHLY INTELLIGENT: Nearly all members of your family have worked for Evil Wizards therefore you possess greater than normal intelligence and are encouraged to speak in such a way. You gain 1d6 additional EGO Points and wear nifty looking glasses. If ever another Kobold who is not +Highly Intelligent has the same EGO score as you, add 1 to your EGO so that you are still highly intelligent.
  
• + COWARDICE: Fortunately for you, you are a coward. You are not fearless at all and do believe in self_preservation. You get no KHDCs from running away from combat.
  
• + NATURAL COMBATANT: You like fighting and it shows! All those brawls in the caves are finally paying off. +2 to hit rolls.

• - FAULTLESS: The only thing wrong with you, is you're a Kobold!
  
• - ANIMAL FOE: You've spent most of your life kicking dogs and lighting cows on fire. As a result all animals get a bad vibe from being near you. All animals within your map square will try to leave, and if cornered will attack!
  
• - FOUL SMELLING: You never really took much to the concept of bathing; as such, a putrid cloud clings to you. Anything in your map square will notice the scent, and probably come looking for a pile of dung.
  
• - HUNGRY: You have an insatiable appetite, even for a Kobold. Your need to eat is so great that if you smell the blood of anything tasty, you must make a 3 dice EGO roll or go into a feeding frenzy, unable to stop yourself from trying to eat your prey. The Kobold definition of tasty is anything that tastes as good as chicken (like chickens, for example, or waffles or other Kobolds or baby! Yum!)
  
• - KOBOLD IN HEAT: You're facing some big changes in your life this yea~ and dogs have begun to notice. If you encounter a dog, it will follow you around until it can get you alone. Every time you encounter an adult human, you must make a 3 dice EGO roll, or attempt to hump their leg. Each turn spent "humping" reduces the EGO roll by 1 die.
  
• - TASTES LIKE BABY: Sure, every Kobold tastes great swimming in tomato gravy, but you just smell delicious! Should you become wounded, all critters (other than Humans) in the map square must make an EGO roll at 3 dice. If a critter fails the roll, the desire to eat you becomes overpowering. If a Kobold with the HUNGRY bogie is nearby, they must make a 5 dice EGO Roll.
  
• - ALCOHOLIC: You refuse to admit it but you are an alcoholic. Whenever you see booze or whiskey you must roll a 3d6 EGO check or immediately go for the booze or whiskey even if it is in another Kobold’s hand. If another kobold brings up the fact that you have a problem you must immediately deny it or suffer a KHDC.
  
• - BENT ON DESTRUCTION: You are much more evil, chaotic, and destructive than the normal Kobold. At any time you see a building that can be burned, a window that can be broken, or any form of destruction possible, you must make a 3d6 EGO check or commence burning and/or smashing and/or destroying. The mayor may force you to roll this check at a _1 bonus every round following the first failed check when something is still able to be burned/smashed/or destroyed until everything is burned/smashed/or destroyed or you finally succeed your check (i.e. Thirg sees a house with several windows so the mayor has him roll a 3d6 EGO check, he fails therefore he is suddenly filled with the urge to break one of those windows. The next round comes around and the mayor lets Thirg roll a 3d6_1 EGO check, he fails again. Thirg must break a second window. "Smash good!" The third round comes around and the mayor lets Thirg roll a 3d6_2 EGO check. He finally succeeds so his destructive rage has worn off. Had he failed that roll he would have been allowed to roll a 3d6_3 EGO check).
  
• - CURSED: Your Kobold is cursed and that's going to suck for you! Whenever your roll is equal to what you need to make (i.e. you have to roll a 6 and you roll a 6 exactly) your Kobold fails. And if that wasn't enough, you begin the game with a Kobold Horrible Death Record of 4. You should feel free to complain about your curse throughout the game (Loudly and incessantly!)
  
• - ONE ARMED: You have one arm and are pretty sure that officials are after you in connection with the death of someone you once loved. You can carry one less item and subtract 1 from your Reflex score.
  
• - PLAIN STUPID: Throughout your life every body has tried to teach you things but for some reason you just didn’t get it. Well, that’s because you are just plain stupid! You begin the game at 3 EGO and your EGO can never go above that number.
  
• - SCHIZOPHRENIC: You have a duel_personality, a Kojekyle and Kohyde if you will. Whenever you enter battle there is a 1 in 6 chance that you will spend the battle attacking your fellow Kobolds! During this time you must constantly be arguing with yourself failure to do so will result in a KOBOLD HORRIBLE DEATH CHECK.
  
• - A BOGIE SORT OF VORMAS: When Vor was handing out the traits and bogies last Vormas, you were the last in line and thus received two bogies instead of one. You begin play with an extra randomly rolled bogie. You then should roll 2 bogies for your kobold. If the _Bogie Sort of Vormas is rolled again, it should be ignored since any kobold with 4 bogies would be dead before they made it out of their cribs.
  
• - WIZARD’S LAB EXPERIMENT: At some point in your life you served as a Wizard’s Lab Experiment. As a result any time you enter combat there is a 1 in 6 chance that you will cast a random spell, usually at your companions.
  
• - CAVE POTATO: Years of sitting in the cave and watching other kobolds has left you with a poor physique. - 2 to your to hit rolls.
  
• - PIXIE BLOOD: One of your kobold ancestors was kinky so your family has always been on the small size. You loose 2 points of Brawn and about a foot in height. In dim light, you are often mistaken as a Hobgremlin.

• "Summon Horrible Demon That Enjoyeth Eating Kobolds" -This isn't really a spell, but you forgot the one that you learned, and you had already told every­one that you could cast a spell, so you made this up.
  
• "Wall of Beer" - This incantation creates a dazzling line of keg-fresh frothy beer that forms a wall around the caster, after the player shouts the magic words, "TAPPA TAPPA KEGGA, WALL 0' BEER OMEGA" while doing a little dance. While "safely nestled in the bosom of booze" the Kobold gains +2 Combat Dice and crit­ters trying to pass the wall must make a 4 dice BRAWN roll.
  
• "Hagen's LARPsfucation" - The Kobold can cause herself to become invisible. The spell lasts for 1d6 turns. While the Kobold is invisible, the player must keep his arms folded across her chest (like a brooding vampire) or the spell fails!
  
• "The Kobold Mind Trick" - You have the ability to influence the mind of another creature by issuing a simple, nonviolent command; such as "these aren't the chickens you're looking for." The effect lasts for 1d6 turns. To cast this spell, the player must say the command in a low, calm voice. "Bail's Floating Frying Pan" - This handy spell makes a floating Frying Pan materialize from thin air. The sizzling skillet makes all COOK rolls 2 dice easier; and can be used as a weapon that does 3 DAM. The player must ask the other players, "Can you smell what {INSERT NAME OF KOBOLD HERE} is cooking!"
  
• "Restor's Spell of Somnolence" - By making a mighty yawn (yes, you have to yawn!), you cause d6 creatures to fall asleep for 1d6 turns. Should there not be enough non-Kobold critters in the area, the Mayor should feel free to cause any Kobolds, especially the caster;: to fall asleep to make up the difference.
  
• "Tabriz' Ball of Flaming Death" - A line of fire erupts from your body, and tears towards your opponent. The fire does d6 DAM and generally catches any combustibles in its path on fire. The player must laugh maniacally at their target.
  
• "Lord Elmer's Ball of Glue" - You conjure an orb of elemental stickiness from the Quasi-Elemental Plane of Adhesives. Your victim is caught in the glue, which makes all REFLEXES rolls 1 die harder. In addition, the victim cannot put any ITEM down, and anything touched by the victim becomes stuck. The spell lasts for 2d6 turns.
  
• "Sandor's Spell of Summoning Chicken" - By chanting the secret words of this spell (which to the other players sounds like a bad chicken impression), a chicken instantly appears from your hat. If you have this spell, you also get a keen hat. The summoned chicken will obey all your commands. Magic Chicken stats: B 2/ E 5/ e 5/ R 15/ CD4 / HITS 2/ DAM 11­ Tastes Like Chicken.
  
• "The POOF! Spell" - With an audible Poof! (created by the player) the caster disappears in a puff of smoke. On the Kobold's next turn, they reappear up to two squares away, in any direction, through any kind of obstacle. Difficulty 4d6.
  
• "The Spell of Mostly Unspeakable Horrors" - Long thought to have been banned throughout the Polyverse, the Spell of Mostly Unspeakable Horrors is a favorite of Kobold sorcerers. We would explain what happens when this spell is cast, but the horrors are mostly too unspeakable (except for the poli-dimensional tentacles, that really aren't all that bad). To cast this most maleficent incantation, the player must howl and wail madly. The target of this spell takes a Kobold Horrible Death Check, and 1 DAM for each Check that the caster has!

• SOCKS: 1 Armor Hits
  
• TEE-SHIRT: 2 Armor Hits
  
• LEATHER JACKET: 6 Armor Hits and it makes you look tough
  
• BEER-BARREL ARMOR: 9 Armor Hits, penalty Die to ATHLETE CHECKS
  
• NEKKID: Wearing only what Vor gave you at birth (meaning NOTHING!)
  
• DISCARDED KIDS CLOTHES: 1 Amor Hits, but at least you’re not Nekkid!
  
• BIG SHIELD: 12 Armor Hits, but counts as an ITEM.
  
• KHAKI PANTS: 1 Armor Hits.
  
• METAL POT HELM: 10 Armor Hits.

• SMALL SHIELD: Takes 4 HITS, strapped around your waist.
  
• LINTMAIL VEST: 1 Armor Hits.
  
• CEREBRAL ENHANCE-O-TRON: 1 Armor Hits. It might look like a colander on a kobold’s head, but in actuality it’s a device that enhances intelligence. As long as the Cerebral Enhance-o-tron is on the kobold’s head and isn’t destroyed, the kobold gets a bonus die for ego rolls.

• STICK: 1 DAM can be thrown to distract dogs
  
• CLUB : 2 DAM, Bonus Die to BASH rolls
  
• HAMMER: 1 DAM, Bonus Die to SPELUNK rolls
  
• SHORT SPEAR: 2 DAM
  
• DAGGER: 1 DAM and it looks really cool!
  
• SMALL SWORD: 2 DAM and it doesn't look cool!
  
• LADEL: 1 DAM, Bonus die to COOK rolls!
  
• IRON SKILLET: 3 DAM
  
• CHAIN: 2 DAM and makes you look menacing
  
• DEAD RAT: 0 DAM, - Foul Smelling
  
• MILITARY KITCHEN FORK: 2 DAM
  
• FLAME THROWER: DANGER! Does 6 damage each use is a KHDC
  
• ADAMANTINE SPORK: 3 DAM
  
• KNIFE: 1 DAM
  

• SPICE SACK: Your kobold is carrying a full arsenal of herbs and spices in a baggie. These herbs make food taste great. If successfully used with a 3 dice cook roll, the resulting meal will give the kobold an additional 1d6 hits. There are enough spices in the sack to prepare 2 meals.
  
• LINT: A handful of lint.
  
• 25 FEET OF ROPE: A length of rope in a nice neat coil, when used this item gives a bonus die to Dungeon and Athlete climbing rolls. Unfortunately, after you use it the first time, you know that you'll never be able to coil it as nicely as it is now. It's like folding a map, and when was the last time you saw a Kobold cartographer? Once used, it counts as 2 ITEMS to carry.
  
• 10 FOOT POLE: A broken 10' piece of wood favored by adventurers, approximately 9 feet long. This item gives a bonus die to all dungeon rolls. Only Vor knows where you keep it when you aren’t using it!
  
• BOOZE*: Your Kobold has a bottle of some kind of alcohol - roll 1d6. Drinking alcohol is a stupid thing to do, but Kobolds are stupid. Alcohol is good for starting fires, trading with humans, and calming babies (though you will probably need to refer to the BABY NEGLIGENCE rule). A Kobold won't know what is in the bottle till they prove their stupidity by drinking it.
  
• CODEX OF TABRIZ THE ARCANE: You have d6 pages of a magic book. To use these pages your must crumple them up and throw them at someone (kaws Koblds dot red so gud!). The kobold or NPC hit by the page is the target of the magik spell. You can find the exact spell by rolling 2d6 and consulting the Random Spell Chart (after the spell is thrown). Regardless of the effect, it instantly happens (no EGO roll required). Every time you use it add a check to the KOBOLD HORRIBLE DEATH RECORD.
  
• RING OF HUMAN SPEAKING: While wearing this ring, the Kobold may speak to humans as if they were Kobolds. (I.e. he can understand what they are saying and they can understand him).
  
• BAG OF HOLDING: CHICKENS: An interesting item, apprentices usually make this bag in Magic Shoppe Class 101. This bag only holds chickens but can hold an infinite number of them, which can be captured on a successful REFLEXES VERSUS! Keep a record of how many chickens are captured in this fashion. Should you die or let go of the sack to grab something else, all the chickens will immediately escape and appear all around the Kobold. The chickens will be enraged and will attack every Kobold they see!</p>
  
• BACKPACK: You have a trendy little sack that you like to strap across one of your shoulders. In the bag you can fit anyone ITEM roughly the size of a baby. Should you actually place a baby in the backpack, you need to refer to the BABY NEGLIGENCE House Rule! The backpack and its contents, do not count against the 2 ITEMS you are allowed to carry.
  
• RUSTY WAGON: Rusty wagon It is a rusty old wagon that is capable of holding up to 4 items. If ever the Kobold has to drag it down a cliffs edge or a particularly uneven surface the Kobold must roll an ext check or the wagons contents will spill all over the place and the Kobold will be forced to spend an amount of rounds equal to the number of items the wagon was carrying picking them up.
  
• ADVENTURER’S CASTOFFS: Left over adventurer’s junk. Roll on the table below to determine what your kobold picked up:

1. Broken Holy Water Vial: Can be thrown at undead to do 1d6 DAM.
   
2. Flask of Oil: can be thrown into a fire to explode for 1d6 DAM to the square and surrounding squares.
   
3. Whetstone: Can be used to sharpen a kobold’s teeth and claws. Roll 1d6. Take the result in DAM and for that number of turns the kobold does +2 DAM.
   
4. Iron Ration: A small iron box that contains a small snack. Eating the snack regains 2 lost hits.
   
5. Flaming club: A stick with burnt oily rags tied at one end. Once lit, it lasts for 2d6 turns and does 3 dam before crumbling to ash.
   
6. Empty Wineskin.

• POGO STICK: Some kid’s old pogo stick, one additional square of movement per turn.
  
• JETPACK: DANGER! Experimental technological flying contraption that happened to be found in the trash. +3 movement. fly over stuff, but each use is a KHDC.
  
• HEALING LIP BALM: A small tube of ointment that you can squeeze onto your sore chapped lips to heal 1 HIT. The tube holds 6 applications.
  
• MONOCLE: An eye piece for only one eye. A prominent villager dropped it when he saw something shocking. Gives a bonus die for BARD rolls.

Whenever you mention King Torg (ALL HAIL KING TORG!!) you must capitalize both King and Torg and follow it with with two exclamation points.


1. Since this is an online game, all the times a player has to do something silly will be done in character. If a player has to bark like a dog, then you have to describe your kobold doing it. If I think its half-hearted then you get a Kobold Horrible Death Check.
   
   
2. The "FAT" Rule. Nothing ruins a really good piece of meat like killing it, all of the really good-for you vitamins and minerals leak out. In order to do this, a kobold must succeed at wrestling the still moving meat. Those kobolds without the WRASSLE skill can attempt this at CD+1. If a kobold is successful, then on the next turn they eat. The kobold gains some of its hits back. 1 for Chickens, 2 for Kobolds, and 1d6 for Babies.
   
   If kobolds eat something dead, they can get half of the Hits listed (rounded down). This doesn’t require a turn to wrestle the meat, only a turn to shove it in their mouth.
   
   
3. The "Kobold Soliloquy" rule. If your Kobold dies, you may post and recount the great deeds of your poor dead Kobold. Once this is finished, you can roll up a new Kobold and bring him into the game, keeping all of your current Victory Points Soliloquys done well might earn Vps too.
   
   Example: Tharg was just torn to shreds by a coop of chickens. Gus stands up at the table putting his hand over his heart, "Mighty Tharg, that did slay many chickens. That did eat Farmer John's baby. That did steal rope from the Bazaar and did valiantly die in the chicken coop behind the Screaming Unicorn. We will miss you!"
   An even better example:
   
   

   Twobirds “Elegy to TishTosh” from the old KAMB game. posted:

   O!
   Hark and listen, to the tale of chickens and death,
   Ventured forth did TishTosh to steal babies unto his last breath.
   Slay a rat he did, nay, two,
   A vicious battle joined by Golf,
   Oh, and a magic chicken too.
   His spoils wrapping his smelly hide,
   he left the house to hear "Save the babies!" cried.
   Distracting the human armed with axe,
   Tishtosh's barking and yipping was not lax.
   But when the weapons came down,
   The sad fate of a favored kobold gave Vor cause to frown.
   
   And off in kobold heaven, TishTosh had to smile,
   "To the caves with the baby Ghulio successfully fled,
   Too bad I got stuck with this axe in my head."
   -Twobirds “Elegy to TishTosh” from the old KAMB game.

   
   
4. The "AND ME BOSS" Rule. If more than one Kobold is involved in an action that produces Victory Points, the Kobold that instigated the action decides who gets the VPs. He can choose to divide them in any way (even if he decides that they should all be his, Mwahaha!)
   
   
5. The "BABY NEGLIGENCE" Rule. Take it from the pros: Babies are fragile! If you don't believe us, try having a catch with one, and see how long it lasts. If a Kobold performs any action that will jeopardize the life of the baby, the Mayor rolls a d6. On an odd roll, the Mayor subjects the precious little thing to the horrors of the BABY NEGLIGENCE or WILDERNESS HORRIBLE DEATH CHART. What kind of things will cause a baby to buy the farm: casting spells, putting a baby in a backpack, failing a skill roll near a baby, playing catch with the baby, and anything else that your Mom would yell at you for doing with your little sister. Every Kobold in the map square loses 3 VP for not stopping this awful waste of food!
   
   
6. I'll edit these rules as I see fit. Failure to comply with these rules will result in a Kobold Horrible Death Check.
   
   
7. Snitch rule: You snitch out another player for screwing something up and I'll reward you with VP.
   
   
8. The "Inigo Montoya" rule: If a kobold that replaced a dead kobold encounters the creature or kobold that killed the first kobold, they may claim the "Inigo Montoya" privilege. If that kobold kills the offender, they gain twice the usual Victory Points for the kill. In order to invoke this rule, the kobold must shout out, "I am (kobold's name here). You killed my father. Prepare to die!" at the beginning of each turn during combat. If you take this literally and post (kobold's name here), then I will give your kobold a KOBOLD HORRIBLE DEATH CHECK.
   
   
9. The "Sequels Always Suck" rule: If a kobold dies and the player insists on calling their new kobold by the same name (or any direct variation like "Son of," "Junior," "the Second," or anything along those lines) the new kobold is given two checks on the KOBOLD HORRIBLE DEATH RECORD.
   
   
10. Mayor is never always right rule: If a player finds an error committed by the Mayor in regards to the player's own character, then the player can ask the mayor to look over the error. If there is indeed an error, then the mistake will be corrected and the player gets his choice of either having a Kobold Horrible Death Check removed or gaining two victory points. Players choice. Using this rule to piss off the mayor will result in a Kobold Horrible Death Check.
    
    
11. New rules can't punish characters and players for actions they've already taken.
    
    
12. Gratuitous Rules are Fun Rule. I like making up new rules.
    
    
13. The Angry Mayor rule: Pissing off the mayor will result in a KOBOLD HORRIBLE DEATH CHECK.
    
    
14. Nothing the Mayor does is considered cheating. Stating that the Mayor is cheating is an offense punishable by a KOBOLD HORRIBLE DEATH CHECK.
    
    
15. The Mayor can award Vps for any reason, at any time.
    
    
16. First turn Amnesty. The Mayor may allow on the first turn a player amnesty from breaking the rules. The Mayor can take away the amnesty if players abuse this rule.
    
    17a) First turn Amnesty doesn’t come into effect until these house rules have been posted in the thread.
    
    
17. Endrite rule: If the player gets probated or banned while playing in this game, their character
