i cannot post my response as this thread is not in any sort of age-restricted area...

but you probably get the picture if you would meet that age restriction...

but, good news is, all you need is a kabold, or several, but no other tools are stricly nessisery.

83. make the kobold your butler, with good pay that way he gets his own hoard and is content to serve you, dragon esque or not.

also i asked about grapes and greentea because they are one of my characters favorite foods (took a vow of veganism which is my DM's custom feat of choice) that way i could let him eat at the dinner table w/ me
sorry it was so off topic

oh yeah, and thanks for the cookie! sigged
