Given the recent truce with the kobolds, I'm curious to find out how long it will be before we can effect a permanent inter-breeding plan with the kobolds. It would amuse me to no end to see a quarter krol, quarter giant, half kobold. Okay, maybe i'd just settle for playing a kobold.

I would love to see kobolds as a playable race.

As amusing as it sounds, I'd hate to see kobolds as a permanent PC race. They aren't intelligent or civilized enough to fit properly into the rest of Elanthian adventurer society; it would be way to jarring to suddenly have them there, just because.

There has been a truce with the kobolds?

A group of Kobolds came to town a few nights and appealed to the Mayor.

Apparently the Kobold Chieftan's son is getting married, so the kobolds wanted to end the fighting for the wedding. We don't kill them, they don't kill us.

The Mayor agreed.

So the kobolds were waiting...for the bride and someone's mother and I got bored and left.

I don't know if the wedding occured yet, but there is a wagon with a big old bow outside of the boat in the Kobold Village. It's closed.

There have not been any kobolds in the village or the forest since the truce, though they are still in Solhaven and I imagine Ta'Vaalor.

Could actually be an rp-way to explain the absence of kobolds for a time while they are updated mechanically in some way.

No truce needed. Check out Shadowclan, one of the best group of roleplayers in the wasteland of graphic MMORPGs.

Doubtful. I think that kobolds were one of the earlier BCS conversions, and they have many more emotes and interactions than just about any other critter out there. I can't imagine why they would need to be updated further beyond that, and especially not in a way that would require pulling them from the game. It's just a roleplaying thing.

And, they didn't pull all of them from the game. They still run around in three other towns.

Nope, they weren't one of the early BCS conversions. They were converted this year amazingly.

The link probaly won't work, but I have another source that I saw it at when browsing for something completly unrelated.

That astonishes me, actually. They must have gone through a massive upgrade without being converted to BCS, which seems odd. I would swear they've gotten a lot more interactive in the time since Aephir.

Kobolds became very interactive at least 5 years ago. Unless you are speaking of another upgrade? I've been gone from the game almost 5 years, and did not notice a major difference with the kobolds on my hunts.

People might be confusing goblins and kobolds. I know goblins became a lot more interactive, so that might be the confusion.

Nah, they've been this way for at least five years. But Aephir is gone far longer than that. Goblins have been more interactive that whole time too, as Hakwea suggested.

You know this whole thing can be simply shored up by the fact that, you know Kobolds have fealing to. Ever thought about that?

Kobolds were one of the earliest creatures to get an overhaul after I started playing. (I didn't realize they weren't BCS either, but I guess their overhaul probably pre-dates the BCS.) Goblins came a while after the kobolds, but they were also a long time ago now. And yeah, their being gone from the Village is just for the mini-storyline.

Neither are any race other than giantkin and Dhe'nar, but you don't see me going on killing sprees.

Not that I DON'T, of course...just that you don't see me.
