I am guessing why Kobolds attack you on sight is because probaly they were told by their elders that we kill their kind on sight. Lets not hate them lets love them if not love them tolerate their precence among us. If not that then just don't kill them.

We should try the expiremnt as Baggins suggested. Lets get a bunch of kobolds send them to a village where villagers have no idea what kobolds are or don't have a strong bias against them.

I refuse to hold hand with those creathures. And they don't have any elders, they were killed by us a long time ago. And how can they be told anyway? All they do is yip.

I am perfectly sane,. and not a gold dragon, thankyou very much. Did I call you a dwarf?
And yes, I did eat kobold recently, I admit. [/QB]</font>[/QUOTE]Well sorry for the mistakes. Anyway, one very important question to ask about the issue. Who attack who first? This could be like the chicken and the egg.

Dragonshadow they do communicate we just do not understand what they are saying. They are not mindless beings they are organized into tribes. All we all gotta do is show them some kindness after a while they will return to us that kindness.

Dragonshadow what would you do if you see say 10 kobolds with arrows all aiming at you ready to let go of their bowstrigs at any moment. Attack? Or simply walk away? They would only attack if you if you make any type of hostile movement towards them.

The reason why Kobolds attack on sight is because maybe a group of adventurers stumble upon a kobold village and killing kobolds on sight. The survivors must have got the impression these mercenaries are like Kobold Killers.

I ask before you kill that harmless loving kobold look into his eyes and pretend that you in his shoes. How would you feel if you were that kobold? Scared that you know that you are going to die or anger because these adventures killed many of your kind in the past?

You guys sure must have a lot of time on your hands to write 4 pages of this nonsense.
I think it's myabe time you got other hobbies or girlfriends or something.
Yeah BG is a great game, but when you get to the stage of going on and on (and on) about Kobolds, well guys, it's time to start to worry.
How about taking up sports or going to the gym or something?, you may even speak to real people!.

You fail to realize that people like me are so hated in the real world that I gave up tying to get a life long ago. What is the point for me? What will it achive?
And this makes perfect sence to me, I don't count it as "nonsence". I am sure that there are others who feel the same. And as for talking to real people... I hardly ever talk, and when I do, it's only sarcasm.

They do not communicate in any way that we know, so they could be plotting our downfall.

If I saw 10 kobolds etc, I would only attack if they did, which they would.

And I refuse to look at kobolds, let alone in the eyes.

Desdicado, please note, this thread has been going on for quite a bit and was started by Mr Baggins, this is a humorous thread and it's just for fun, if you are on these forums why have you asked an insulting question as well. And Slythe, the thing is I get Kobolds attacking me all the time. They come up on my detect evil and they are a pest for the good halfing folk of Gullykin. Oh yeah has Mr Baggins gone missing again?

Once upon a time there was a kobold named Ko. He was in his small small family hut waiting for his father to bring back some food from the hunt. The father kobold came back and brought in a rabbit. The father placed the rabbit on the small table and put a wand next to it. Little did the Ko know what doom the wand would bring to him and his people. The father told his son that the wand shot something red and killed the rabbit and the one that was holding it was a the wand was a human woman. The woman pointed the wand at him but obviously the charges on the wand ran out and threw it at the kobold father.

The woman walked away and the kobold father examined it and something red came out of it and hit a nearby tree. The woman turned and saw the damage the wand did to the tree and knew that there were still some charges left. The woman started casting a spell and the kobold was running like ell and grabbed the rabbit while running.

The father told his tale and was about to eat the rabbit with his son. Suddenly there was screams (Actually it sounds likes yips yips to us). The father went outside and saw the woman and some other humans killing Kobolds. The woman cast melf's Acid arrow at the kobold and Ko saw his father perish. There was havok on the tribe. The kobolds unsheathed their weapons and attacked. But in the end the resistance was futile. Ko ran away and looked back just as a adventurer killed a kobold mother holding her child.

Ko ran in the forest and went to the next trible and told them what happened. Ko was angry Ko wanted revenge for what those adventurers had done to his home.

Meanwhile the human woman wizard picked up the wand Ko's father was holding. She and her companions walked away with no remorse what they have done.
