Kobolds of the Golden Parrot? Im intrigued

Right now AD&D seems to be getting the least love as people either follow Pathfinder(and other 3.x derivatives), fiddle with 4e or dig out D&D.

Im strongly considering digging out AD&D or a close facsimile as I recently dusted off some of my Dark Sun material after a friend at my gaming group mentioned wanting to play in a non-Tolkien game world.

Hi Evernevermore,

There was a definite Python theme going on, with an LG Cleric having converted a tribe of Kobolds to the path of righteousness, and even a Kobold Paladin. They were invariably terminated with extreme predjudice by even "good" adventuring parties.

They are still in there, but I've scratched the paladin, the parrot and make them converts to LN Saint Cuthbert, instead.

I'd look at other versions of D&D, but I don't want to rewrite all the material, and in any case the kids don't know any better. They are going to have a shock when THEY get to Uni and find things have moved on 25 years!

Eh - dont be so sure they'll be shocked. I tried liking 4e, I even ran a campaign in it - but its not for me. You might have enlightened children too hehe.

I was wondering if it had a Python tie in. Kobolds have always been my favorite for the "misunderstood monster", that and the fact that if you go with thier trap making skill you can savage a party pretty much regardless of level - good for reminding players that they can get complacent.

They didn't have any traps, but worked in small units with a tightly packed shield wall and volleys of darts; some had molotovs. However I think some traps would add spice... and maybe I'll work out some way for the Kobolds to get around and hit the party from the rear.
