Kobolds – the Dumastorian cousins of trolls and Ducateon (not draconic ancestry as is the common misconception). These are the ancient descendants of the Ko-Boldes who sided with the gods of darkness when the Blood of Saemon crossed over into Helca. They are under the Sun Bane. Hunted to extinction by Orrish and humanoid races of Helca, eventually their Ducateon brethren sheltered the last of them. They have been forgotten for thousands of years, and only about 10,000 exist in carefully controlled environments by their larger cousins. Almost no one knows what they are now, and their stoney skin protects them best against the Sun Bane for longer than anything except trolls.
