Feature: Matriarch / Patriarch

From your work in the hatchery, you are trusted implicitly by
young kobolds. Kobolds don't have individual family units
distinct from the pack (aside from their mate), so they see you
as the closest thing to a parent. If you have been working in
the hatchery for a very long time, there may be adult kobolds
who still treat you with the same reverence as they did when
they were children under your care.
