D6	These kobolds look
1	like argyrial old men, blue wrinkles so deep you can’t see their eyes.
2	like big grey geckos slipping between cracks in the rock.
3	like mangey stray dogs loping on their hind legs.
4	like hunched runts crudely carved from cobalt.
5	like hairless, albino tarsiers.
6	like the bastard offspring of a caiman, a rat, and a monkey.

D6	These kobolds’ lair
1	in a half-flooded mine. The other half is filled with poisonous gas. The kobolds maintain ingenious mechanisms to manipulate the pressure in their own tunnels to keep them clear of both.
2	is a paleontological dig, winding through the fossils of ancient behemoths. Even after their decay and mineralization, some may still not be fully dead.
3	in tunnels and boltholes hidden within a giant ant hive.
4	in an extinct culture’s catacombs, among the bones of ancestors with no remaining descendants.
5	is a sprawling silver mine where escaped slaves have founded their own societies in the lightless, unforgiving depths.
6	is a tremendous lock sealing some unspeakable evil beneath the earth.

D6	These kobolds’ favourite sort of trap
1	are explosives, placed obviously yet triggered by unexpected means.
2	are spiked pits, droppable spiked ceilings, and spiked doors that swing out to impale those that try to open them.
3	are Rube Goldberg machines as needlessly complex as they are deadly.
4	are incendiaries that double as a barbecue.
5	are darts and needles and all other things that can be slathered in venom.
6	are those baited so their targets bring doom upon their own heads.

D6	These kobolds are
1	ghosts of those killed by cave-ins.
2	homunculi from the lab of an alchemist who studied chthonic strains.
3	crafty imps that leaked like radiation from hell into the earth.
4	elementals of the world below enraptured by human convention and artifice.
5	rebellious fairy proles on whose labour the fantastical luxury of the courts both seelie and un-so were built.
6	the multitudinous grubs of dragons. Only a fingertip of a handful will make it to maturation.

D6	Something you might find on these kobolds
1	is a mole-leather pouch of grey salt that preserves food it’s sprinkled on indefinitely but shrivels it into a tasteless lump.
2	is a tooth-tipped pick that can cut through rock as though it were merely dirt.
3	is a geodesic arrangement of springs which can be sprung to unfold it into a simple mechanical trap of its user’s choosing. Single use.
4	is a rope spun from tarantulas’ hair, which can be made to stretch like a bungee cord and thereby resist being cut.
5	is a lantern made from the skull of a burrowing owl. Its light shines through rock and glints brightly off metal.
6	is a caged clockwork canary that bursts the moment before its holder makes a lethal mistake.

D6	These kobolds’ primary interaction with humans
1	is directing them to less valuable veins of ore to deflect them from the good stuff.
2	is kidnapping people to trade them to nightmarish creatures living deeper underground.
3	is using their low riches to bribe agents to steal the luxuries of the sunlit lands for them.
4	is taking over their basements and excavations.
5	is to use them as test subjects for their entrapped gauntlets.
6	is sapping their fortifications.
