Ability Score Increase +1 Dex, +1 Wis
Size Small
Speed 30

Kobold Skirmishers are the iconic type of kobolds you might find in a dungeon; quick, and deadly, as long as there are a few in the same room.     Age: Kobolds reach adulthood at age 6, and can live up to 120 years (but rarely do so).   Size: Kobolds are generally between 2 and 3 feet tall, and weigh between 25 and 35 pounds. Your size is Small.   Speed: Your base walking speed is 30 feet.   Darkvision: You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were in dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.   Pack Tactics: You have Advantage on an attack roll against a creature if at least one of your allies is within 5 feet of the creature, and the ally isn't incapacitated.   Gear-smith: You can quickly craft a single item of adventuring gear during a long rest. You may only craft the items below, and only if you have the appropriate tool, and possess the DC provided. If you fail your Tool check, you may try to craft a different item, but only once, have no value to merchants, and are rendered useless after your next long rest.  

DC Item Name Tool
10 Hunting Trap Smith's Tools
12 Alchemist's Fire Alchemist's Supplies
13 Acid Alchemist's Supplies
15 Poison Poison Kit
  Sunlight Sensitivity: You have disadvantage on attack rolls and Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight when you, the target of your attack, or whatever you are trying to perceive is in direct sunlight.   Spear Superiority: You treat Spears as Finesse weapons, so long as you use them in one hand.   Subterranean: Whenever you make a Survival (Wisdom) check while underground, you are considered proficient in the Survival skill and add double your proficiency bonus to the check, instead of your normal proficiency bonus.   Kobold Weapons Training: You have proficiency with the Shortsword, Spear, Whip, and Hand Crossbow.  
 

Languages. You can speak, write, and read Common and Draconic.
