The term “Kobold” is originally German for “goblin”, “gnome” or “faery”, the scary and dangerous beings from outside the campfire’s light in preindustrial times.

In D&D the name has been used on 1st level mooks who used to be doglike goblinoids but these days are dragonkin, i.e. small reptiliads.

These newer kobolds from Reaper are very much more dragon- og reptile-like than earlier versions that might have been doglike…

 

There are 12 of them in the Bones 4 core set. 6 mooks and 6 leaders.

 

#103-108: Kobold Leaders

These are the slightly more powerful kobolds. Some of them might even be 2nd level!

Numbered left to right, #103-#108.

Also note the many mammary glands on #105. These are supposed to be reptilian?

 

#75-#80: The Kobold Mooks

Numbered left to right, #75-#80.

 

Not by best work by far. I did four different colour combinations, three of each.

 

12 1st level mooks vs 1 12th level barbarian berserker. Who will win? Ready! Steady! Fight!
