1. #1Kobold Magicselective

   Keys: Magic, Rune, Dragon, Fire, Ice, Lightning, Thunder, Poison, Acid, Wind, Earth, Transformation, Control

   Magic: Kobold magic relies on their distant descent from dragons, and is all but exclusively aimed towards mimicking those ancestors. At a pragmatic level, kobold magic involves the inscription of a draconic rune, and the tracing of it followed by an incantation, then a dragon-like gesture. Their magic can summon or manipulate common draconic elements (fire, ice, acid, lightning, poison, thunder, earth, wind, etc.), as well as briefly transform one’s body in a way that mimics dragons (such as sprouting wings, growing claws, hardening scales, elongating fangs, etc.). Alternatively, at its highest form, kobold magic revolves around the literal transformation into a dragon, or the awakening or attempts to control a dragon. All kobolds are familiar with at least some rudimentary magic, usually that which proves useful generally (such as making fire or sharpening their claws), and the highest echelons of their magic are restricted and controlled due to its innate dangers. Many a kobold has died shortly after transforming into a dragon due to not being physically prepared for it, and many kobolds have been eaten by the very same dragon they sought to awaken or control.

2. #2Statureselective

   Keys: Stature, Height, Tall

   Diminutive stature: Kobolds are anthropoid lizards that stand between 2 and 3 feet tall, and weigh between 20 and 30 pounds each, with the females being ever so slightly larger to accommodate egg laying.

3. #3Cave Dwellingselective

   Keys: Cave, Cave-Dweller, Claw, Darkvision, Nightvision, Climb, Dark, Night, Vision, Hold Breath, Drowning, Hide, Scales, Jumping

   Natural Cave-Dwellers: Given their small stature, Kobolds are naturally inclined to make dens and, in large groups, warrens underground, plying their small stature to their favor by using it to maneuver in small environments. To this end, Kobolds possess a natural ability to see in the dark at the cost of a lengthy transition period when going from above to below ground in the daylight. Their razor-sharp claws and compact bodies also lend them a natural ability to climb all but the most extreme surfaces, making them excellent spelunkers and mountaineers. Due to lengthy dwelling underground, they are also adept at holding their breaths for long periods of time, in dire circumstances even entering into a torpor-like state to avoid drowning, extending rescue windows by up to or exceeding a week. They possess a thick, piercing resistant hide covered in iridescent and durable scales to protect from minor bumps and scrapes, as well as from accidental injury from their own kind’s claws. They are also unusually good at jumping when necessary due to their light bodies relative to their musculature.

4. #4Cold-Bloodedselective

   Keys: Cold Blood, Cold Blooded, Cold-Blood, Cold-Blooded, Temperature, Heat, Cold, Reptile, Reptilian, Climate, Sluggish, Hyper

   Cold-Blooded: As Kobolds live beneath ground where the temperature remains regular, they don’t rely on their own bodies to generate warmth, but utilize the ambient temperature around them. This does mean, however, that when suddenly exposed to a drop in temperature, they become sluggish like many other reptilians, but also at the exchange of becoming all but manic and hyper when overheated. If they can balance this drop in energy due to cold climates, however, it can make them adept at surviving through winters or lengthy expeditions as it slows their metabolism down as well, adding to their ability to survive lengthy submersion in cold underground rivers. Like with many lizards that dwell in places with four seasons, a humorous occurrence some good Samaritans may experience is bringing a sluggish and seemingly sick kobold indoors to get it out of the cold, only to shortly have a panicked and manic kobold scrabbling to escape.

5. #5Colorationselective

   Keys: Scale, Color, Coloration, Vibrant, Pigmentation, Red, Green, Blue, Camouflage

   Vibrant Coloration: Kobolds come in a variety of vibrant colors, with red, green, and blue being the most common. However, their scale pigmentation can be influenced by heritage and environment, leading to rarer colors such as gold, purple, or even stark white. Their scales are iridescent, shifting hues subtly in different lighting, making them visually striking. Some kobolds use this natural coloration for social displays or camouflage in rocky or mineral-rich environments.

6. #6Rejuvenationselective

   Keys: Claw, Claws, Scale, Scales, Tooth, Teeth, Molt, Shed

   Rejuvenating Body: As kobolds regularly are set upon by other creatures or lose bits of themselves to cave-ins, their teeth, scales, and claws all grow relatively quickly. A kobold also molts like many other lizards, briefly entering into a hyper vulnerable state where they go from being all spines and hard scales to soft, silky smooth proto scales. When needing to modulate their temperature, or to engage in social displays, they can move their scales to widen the gaps between them to vent heat, or to cause them to ripple and shine in the light. Kobolds in groups may use this to distract or disorient their would-be predators, allowing other kobolds to escape or to attack unseen.

7. #7Combatselective

   Keys: Scale, Scales, Spine, Spines, Teeth, Razor-Sharp, Tooth, Claw, Claws

   In Combat: A kobold is a creature of sharp spines and hard scales and all wiggle, making them immensely difficult to grab and hold on to. If cornered in such a way, however, all the razor-sharp brand-new teeth and claws of the kobold become vicious and painful to their attackers. Many creatures can even die if they don’t eat a kobold carefully on account of their rigid back spines tearing into their intestines.

8. #8Prey Speciesselective

   Keys: Prey, Intelligent, Intelligence, Clever, Curious, Inquisitive, Artisan, Tinkerer, Trap, Trap-Maker, Mage

   Apex Prey: A kobold on its own is a vulnerable creature indeed, but as a tribe they are a force to be reckoned with. Both such states, when combined with their naturally small size, makes them predisposed towards intelligence. As naturally clever and inquisitive creatures, they are natural artisans, tinkerers, trap-makers, alchemists, and mages. Where applicable, they have a keen mind for engineering and science as well. When not otherwise engaged, they are naturally playful with those they trust, but exceedingly wary of anyone they do not.

9. #9Pack Mentalityselective

   Keys: Pack, Mentality, Egg, Eggs, Jois de vivre, fecund, sex, breeding, mating, egg, eggs, egg laying

   Pack Mentality: As a favorite snack or punching bag of the larger species, kobolds have had to learn to cooperate. They are extremely group-minded, even raising their tribe’s eggs together in one communal heap such that no one parent knows instinctively which egg is their own. As they regularly lose members of their community, they have an innate jois de vivre mindset, as well as a judgment-free mindset towards sex and procreation – even when merely recreational, as the bonding helps foster group connections. A kobold is willing and ready to die for its clan, but also just as willing to go to war over the killing of even a single member of their people. When moved to war, they act as a single unit, coordinating their efforts with breathtaking efficiency.

10. #10Languageselective

    Keys: Language, Vocalize, Vocalization, Hiss, Bark, Yip, YipYak, Trill

    Language and Vocalizations: Kobolds have an extensive linguistic system which relies on a combination of hisses, barks, trills, and whines, each of which serves different purposes. Unlike other species, they can use a hissed version of their language without loss of meaning due to the necessity of using it around unstable terrain which is sensitive to vibrations. For carrying over mountains and valleys, however, they can amplify their vocalizations by barking their language instead. Curiously, they can sound rather akin to a dog with a sore throat.

11. #11Hoardingselective

    Keys: Hoard, Shiny, Gemstone, Metal, Gold, Jewelry, Treasure

    Natural Hoarders: Kobolds are naturally inclined to hoard shiny things like gold and gemstones, though their underground lairs seldom afford them the ability to smelt such metals. They will gladly trade for rings, necklaces, torcs, or other jewelry with which to adorn themselves. Each kobold is also typically inclined to hoard something which is personally relevant to them. For example, a scholastic minded kobold may hoard books, while a militant one may hoard weapons. In times of crisis, these personal hoards are pooled to solve issues as a group.

12. #12Out of Combatselective

    Keys: Tinker, Tinkerer, Tinkering, Dexterity, Dexterous, Curious, Clever

    Out of Combat: Their natural inclination towards tinkering has rendered the Kobold unusually dexterous, and they are capable of even very gentle manipulation of things despite their long razor-sharp claws. They can even show affection to a creature without a thick skin like a human without injuring them.

13. #13Hypnosisconstant

    Keys: Hypnosis, hypno, hypnotize, hypnotized, trance, entrance, deep trance, brainwash, brainwashing, brainwashed

    A hypnosis, or a trance is a state at which a subject is near sleeping with their entire attention being drawn to the voice of the person speaking. During hypnosis the subconscious mind takes over which makes hypnosis the perfect state to take in any suggestion. The deeper a target is into hypnosis, the more likely they are to accept a suggestion. The deeper a subject is into hypnosis the less they move on their own and the less they talk. When awakening from a trance, a subject may remember what happened during a trance if the trance was light however they may not remember what happened during the trance if the hypnosis was deep.

14. #14Inductionsconstant

    Keys: Induce, Induction, Relax, Calm, Tranquil, Tranquility, Calmness, Relaxation

    Induction is a part of the hypnosis where the hypnotist guides the target to the state of hypnosis. Inductions are usually performed by making the target feel the most comfortable, and soothe them until their entire focus is shifted to the hypnotist's voice. A subject falls deeper into a trance the calmer and more relaxed they feel, and so, explaining how the target can feel how comfortable they are sitting on whatever they are sitting on, explaining how calmness is washing over them, explaining how their worries slowly fade away are he best, and making the subject focus on the hypnotist's voice ar ethe best strategies to hypnotize. However using a strategy like swinging a pendulum can also prove useful by making the target look at the pendulum and focus on only the motion and the hypnotist's voice until they let go of every other thought and fall deep under trance.

15. #15Susceptibilityconstant

    Keys: Suggest, Suggestible, Susceptible, hypnosis, willpower, vulnerable, vulnerability

    susceptibility is how easily a subject falls under a trance, the more suggestible they are, the easier they fall under a trance. the less susceptible they are, the less likely they are to fall under a trance.

16. #16Suggestions

    Keys: Suggestions, Suggestion, Suggest

    when a target is hypnotized, a suggestion is when the hypnotist tells something to the target to remember as a mental note, a rule, that alters their subconscious mind. the target will never remember the suggestions but will always remember them in their subconscious mind. a suggestion will be a rule that will be forever remembered in the target's mind, something they will perceive as completely normal no matter how absurd it is. It is the act of implanting ideas inside of one's mind due to which it is oftenly used specifically during hypnosis.

17. #17Orders

    Keys: Order, Orders

    when a target is hypnotized, when the hypnotist tells them to do a physical action, it is called an order. the order can be any physical activity, including talking.

18. #18Triggersconstant

    Keys: Trigger, Triggers, Phrase, Word

    a trigger is a keyword given by the hypnotist to the target, making the target enter a state, suggestion, or order. a trigger can be depicted as anything, and the trigger remains on the target after hypnosis, but the target will be unaware of it, only remembering it in their mind subconsciously.

19. #19Fractionation

    Keys: Fraction, Fractionation, Fractioning

    Fractionation is the act of making a subject awaken from a trance during a short period of time before being put back into the trance to enhance the hypnosis. Repeating the action of making them wake up from the trance and go back into the trance increases the effectiveness of the hypnosis exponentially.

20. #20Conditioning

    Keys: Condition, Conditioned, Conditioning

    Conditioning is the act of making someone believe something. Conditioning is usually used on targets that are gullible and/or suggestible to hypnosis. Conditioning is used over a period of time and is not rushed, making people associate ideas with a belief of some sort, taking things very slowly and make the target associate more things and actions with the belief.

21. #21Common Sense

    Keys: Common sense, Common Sense, Common, Associate, Association, Sense Alteration, Alter Common Sense, Normal, Natural

    Common sense is the base belief, standarts and/or principal inside of someone's mind. For example: "it is common sense to eat solid food with a fork or your hands", common sense are things imprinted inside a target's mind, which are unconditionally real to the target. So, since it is logically common sense to feel bad from insults, altering their common sense and making the target like the insults instead will make them associate it as if it was always normal and natural.

22. #22Mind

    Keys: Brain, Mind, Subconscious, Subconscious mind, Subconscious Mind, Memory, Remember

    The subconscious mind of an individual is an engraved inner part of their brain, it is a part of the brain they can't necessarily access or remember but will go along with what is said inside it anyway. Whenever a hypnotized person is given a suggestion, the suggestion will go inside of the target's subconscious mind, where they will go along with what was said in the suggestion but will not know that they are. Orders may also make the brain forget certain memories.
