Homebrew Gecko Kobold Variant Species Details

The variant of the kobold was formed from blood, trust and trade.

In the mountainous forests of which not yet named, there were two colonies, the Geckofolk and the Kobolds. The Kobolds had once been slaves of a great ruler but after they over through their past leader they ran away and made a whole new colony. They just so happened to be just next to another colony which was the Geckofolk kind. They had a lot of issues with the Kobolds as they sometimes went on each others land. They fought many fights for the land and had many arguments which led to a three year war which (when the war ended) made the commanders of the colonies decide to make a peace treaty. Even after the peace treaty their was still fights on the streets as a lot of Kobolds invaded the Geckofolk's land and robbed their people. A few months after this the leaders of the colonies decided to make a trade route together and join up to make the armies better.

Due to all this more Kobolds met with Geckofolk. After a long time the Gecko variant of Kobolds had became a slightly normal thing in the new nations. The new gecko variant is able to climb up walls way quicker then normal Kobolds. They are slightly skinnier then normal Geckofolk, more like Kobolds, as they can climb into small spaces and can dodge easier. They have all the other traits of Kobolds.
