Well, you're right. I think it's a terrible idea for the ruins.

It's a big dungeon. I wouldn't count on riding a mount. I know, I know, riding dogs are medium. Still, you require unbroken terrain, without pits, large rocks, or caltrops. You also need a charge lane. That's going to be hard to come by in a 5ft hallway.

And if you get to play in the city proper, you won't have your lance, you might not have whatever you ride, and you might get arrested for being a kobold.


This might work for a largely outdoor region that is kobold friendly. I don't know what that would be, but that's where I would want to play this character.

or this:

Paladin 1: Mounted Combat
Paladin 2:
Paladin 3: Power Attack
Paladin 4: Paladin Spells (but not castable until wisdom increased)
Paladin 5: Special Mount
Hospitaler 1: Ride by, Spirited Charge

though really a low wisdom low charisma paladin is a bit silly :)

but it IS a kobold

I'd suggest the Kobold Fighter substitution levels...+2 str and +2 con can help a lot...something along these lines:

Race:Kobold
Alignment:

STR-18 (16)-4
DEX-14 (6)+2
CON-14 (6)-2
INT-8 (0)
WIS-8 (0)
CHA-8 (0)

Lv1(Barbarian)Extra Rage
Lv2(Kobold Fighter)Spear Focus, Dodge
Lv3(Kobold Fighter)True Believer, +2 CON
Lv4(Fighter)+1 STR
Lv5(Kobold Fighter)+2 STR
Lv6(Pious Templar)Power Attack
Lv7(Pious Templar)
Lv8(Pious Templar)Weapon Specialization, +1 STR
Lv9(Pious Templar)Melee Weapon Mastery (Piercing), Reckless Rage

Some spear favoring god...sure you can't cast spells...but oh well...you'll be raging all the time anyway...This is all assuming you don't mind the multiclassing xp/gp penalty...
