Kobold Livestock Knights ~upd~

Kobolds are physically small, making traditional mounts like horses or griffins impractical. Instead, the Livestock Knights utilize creatures that thrive in cramped, rocky environments:

But what if we have been looking at kobolds through the wrong end of the spyglass? What if, instead of dungeon-crawling cannon fodder, they are the unsung architects of a radical agricultural and military revolution? kobold livestock knights

It forces us to confront the uncomfortable fact that honor and slaughter are not opposites but partners, dancing a bloody jig on the blade of a lance. The Kobold Livestock Knight does not roar in defiance. It does not weep for its fate. It simply lowers its visor, spurs its own ribs, and charges toward the enemy line—knowing that victory means a warm stable tonight, and defeat means a quick death. But either way, one day, the scales will be stripped, the bones will be boiled, and a new knight will wear its father’s polished helm. That is the law of the livestock. That is the oath of the knight.
