Kobolds and small folk.

Holy crap, Kobold Press is running rings around WotC in their handling of short races.

These kobolds are great and I like Kobold Press merging gnomes and halflings into a single smallfolk ancestry and breaking them out into halfling and gnome groups. The cottage heritage is a great example over the cultural overlap between the two traditional races.

The only thing WotC gnomes have over the Kobold Press ones are mechanical support for illusionists and other tricky gnome types, but there's already a lot of that available.

Sorry KP, but I really hate this. For "gnomish adaption" you get probably the least unique thing in D&D, darkvision. Almost anything else would be better, this is just weaksauce.

Awesome! Glad you dig it!

The only thing I don't like is the Warrens heritage--specifically, that young are raised in clutches, because that very strongly implies that it's kobold-only. Since, let's face it, clutches mean eggs, which halflings and gnomes don't have. If they were described as being in creches instead, then it becomes open to everyone.

Beyond that, though, I love them! I've always envisioned kobolds as tinkerers, just not as fancy as other species, so I'm glad to see that they're this way here.

Thanks for the heads up!
