As the kobold's stats are very low and the group needed someone to do the up and personal fighting the gm allowed me the primitive template, increasing the physical stats at the cost of the mental ones. So think of him as a Neanderthal Kobold who dreams of one day being a real dragon. And while he lacks magic he can unleash quite a fury for his size.As to using the wyrm as a mount: The wyrm's base speed is only 30ft. So he is slower than the horses and even slower than I (or at least will be once I get a mithral breastplate). But I think shadowkras is right, as long as the little guy doesn't join the fights he will not be targeted by attacks.
While exploring our land (Kingmaker AP) we encountered two Tatzlwyrms. After defeating them we searched their nest and found, besides some treasure hoard, something far more interesting: Two eggs. Being a descendant of true dragons myself I at one claimed to raise one of the little ones and hatched it. But what now? If I train/raise it (have not found out which sex it is) to follow me around it could be hurt, which I would not want. But should I let human parents care for my fosterchild?
..... Clearly the next steps largely depend on the GM. But as it took some real time for the little wyrm to hatch I guess he has some idea. But what should I do?
I could ask my GM if I can take leadership at level 7 to make it my cohort. But having a low cha my leadership score will suck. What should I do?
To go some more into detail: mild Kingmaker spoilers:
As our group befriended the kobolds in the first part of kingmaker I thought playing one was a perfect fit for my new PC. For part 1 I was the GM and now our late fighter took over. The group is rather big (6 players) and little organised. What they really lacked was a competent melee. Because of that the new GM allowed me to add the primitive template to my kobold invulnerable rager. When a werewolf came to our nice little town only three of us were present and I was lucky being such a though little dragon for the beast could dish out some mean damage with his greataxe and bite. I've built for natural attacks. And I'm looking forward to level 7 (long time still) when I get Noxious Bite.. And I can't even shorten the time needed because there is no class I could dip into to get one of the needed feats as bonus.

I was wondering, have any of you had experience playing a kobold in pathfinder, or being in a party with one? What kind of character was it? Did your GM use the standard stat arrays or use homebrew ones? How did the party respond? Did it mess with your verisimilitude or anything? I'm playing this one in Kingmaker. GM allowed me to add the primitive template to my kobold. It's a bit strong but as all the other play aasimars and such we thought it would not hurt too much. |
