Kobolds, Wyrmborn

Kobolds are often resented, and seen by the other races as weak and ineffectual. Nevertheless, a few of their offspring in each generation become infused with a greater portion of their dragon heritage. Wyrmborn kobolds, as they have come to be known, are granted greater intelligence, intuition, and power, and are charged with the safekeeping of ancient dragon lore, knowledge, and magic. Once encountered, others can scarcely believe how the wyrmborn stem from the common kobold race.
