Homebrew Desert kobold Species Details

Half dragons, dragonborn, kobolds , and desert kobolds are often collectively referred to as the draconic races. The one thing that all draconic races have in common is that the blood of dragons flows through their veins. Because of this, or in some cases despite this, they are naturally drawn to each other. Their opinion on the other races varies, as they tend to put value most into people's skill and merit. Usually, they tend to get along with dwarves due to their strong senses of honor and duty. Humans are seen as both fascinating as well as dangerous, but overall they have a friendly relationship. They respect the skill of the Elves and the strong sense towards communities that halflings have. Gnomes are seen with a slightly less positive view due to their rivalry with the kobolds and their larger desert cousins to whom they have grown somewhat attached. But if a gnome proves his or her merit he or she will find an equally devoted friend / lover. 

Desert kobolds can live up to 120 years, but their tendency of almost comedically getting themselves killed means they rarely live that long. They are the most numerous of all the draconic races, and they are also renowned for their teamwork.

What they are most renowned for however is their worship of dragons, whose whims and even cruelty they readily forgive. This despite their tendency to be petty and spiteful if they don't receive the respect they believe they deserve as descendants of glorious dragonkind. Indeed, no form of treachery comes to mind when a dragon is involved. And as far as they are concerned, dragonborn and half dragons are every bit as dragon as true dragons are.
