Something like this... Kobold Racial Paragon HD: d6 Skill Points: 4 + Int bonus Class Skills: Balance (Dex), Climb (Str), Concentration (Con), Craft (Int), Hide (Dex), Jump (Str), Knowledge (any) (Int), Listen (Wis), Move Silently (Dex), Profession (Wis), Spellcraft (Int), Spot (Wis) and Swim (Str).

Quithion 03-01-04, 03:51 PM	SInce your going for a sorcerous base, why would they no get a +2 CHA ?
hieratical 03-01-04, 04:00 PM	The reason I went with +2 Dex is that they already have a Dex Bonus, and most of the Paragons seem to only give bonuses where they already exist. That being said, +2 charisma would give them a nice boost to a spellcasting stat.... I just don't think of Kobolds as all that charismatic. What do you think? The +2 dex and +1 natural armor mean that a Kobold paragon has an unarmored AC of 15, which may do more for a sorcerer than +2 charisma.
Dawnspeaker 03-01-04, 04:08 PM	Phew..for some reason when I read this listing I had an image of the kobold with the paragon template from the epic levels handbook...very disturbing. I would really like to see some paragons from the non-standard races. WoTC could do a nice bit of add ons through the website with these.

What about the rest of the lizard-kind: Lizard men Troglodytes Lizard Folk also then goblinoids should also get paragon levels: Goblins Hobgoblins Bugbears Dekanter goblins :D
Nick Soapdish 03-01-04, 04:26 PM	IIRC, both the gnome and elf get their paragon level bonus to their favored class's spellcasting stat so it wouldn't be a radical departure to have another class do that. Plus, while I agree that the average kobold doesn't really sound charismatic, this is a paragon kobold so it can be above and beyond what you think of for kobolds.
hieratical 03-01-04, 04:29 PM	Do you think Knowledge(any) is to strong? Should it be Knowledge (arcana) instead?
VanDeBeast 03-01-04, 07:42 PM	I'd think that the Paragon Kobold would be like hieratical's first suggestion, but replacing the removal of light sensitivity with an increase to the racial bonuses to setting traps.

hieratical 03-02-04, 09:53 AM	Originally posted by hiryuu Wht d6 Hit Die? What should it be? As a Sorcerer it should be d4, but I think a Kobold Paragon should be slightly tougher, and they don't get full caster levels for it. Similar to the hit dice of the Eldritch Knight.
