Kobolds are small Template:Ls, slightly smaller than Template:L. They are technologically backward and use Template:L Template:Ls.

Once your fortress has accumulated a certain amount of wealth, kobold Template:L will raid you in Template:L, generally, but not always, timing their attacks to coincide with the arrival of Template:Ls. Kobold thieves can even show up in Template:L. They are able to bypass any and all Template:Ls, and are an excellent reason to channel all traffic in and out of your fortress through a single location which should be guarded at all times. Once discovered and caught, a kobold can generally be killed by any armed Template:L and most unarmed civilians. Be warned though that even the lowliest kobold thief will carry a copper Template:L, which can lead into severe injuries if you order an unarmed recruit to attack it.

Kobold raiding parties may occasionally show up to ambush your dwarves outside once kobold thieves have successfully stolen some items. The kobolds will hold back and fire their Template:Ls at all dwarves who venture near. This is not a Template:L. The kobolds will leave when they have no more Template:Ls or when they experience minor casualties. Due to the archers, these raiding parties can be quite dangerous to an unprepared fortress, especially one reliant on resources such as Template:Ls and surface Template:L. The parties can also consist of other kobolds, such as kobold spearmen.

Kobold Caves in Adventure Mode

In adventure mode, kobolds live in mountainside caves. They will have guards, soldiers, civilians, Template:Lren, and the occasional quite dangerous weaponmaster. Kobolds are deadly with a bow but generally an easy match in melee, even for a novice adventurer. Kobold caves are full of trinkets, and they often wear Template:Ling, weapons, and small-sized Template:L.
