Profile


Gatobolds are flamehorn kobolds from an alternate dimension. They are more solitary than most kobolds, but it's still rare to see one alone. The tend to make their homes in barns, living among the rafters and keeping the farm animals in check. Gatobolds are more carnivorous than most kobolds, and the average meal one makes typically consists of snake and rat meat along with a glass of milk.

Gatobolds are notorious for being cruel hunters. They wield sabers made of fire which they use to slowly hack away at their prey. For them the thrill of a hunt is just as important as eating whatever poor creature made the fatal mistake of getting too close.

Character creation notes

- They can have the ears and tail of any feline and/or rodent
- They have short horns that are typically 6 inches or shorter.
- Their horns, tail, and eyes glow
- In very rare cases a gatobold can be born with 2 tails.
- They'll always have a marking on their neck that resembles a bowtie, bolo tie, or necktie.
- They're always pleasantly warm.
- They tend to have a sibling rivalry style dynamic with flamehorn kobolds

LitRPG Themed Skills:
- [Internal Hearthfire: Whenever a gatobold uses a red magic* skill They recover hp equal to their level, and any allies within 5 feet of them do the same. This skill can only be used if a tier 1 kobold creature class is active.]
- Firewalk: Gatobolds can teleport to a fire with 15 feet of them without consuming mana as long as it's big enough for them to stand in.
- Invisibility: Like most kobolds, gatobolds kobolds can expend some of their mana to turn invisible. The invisibility wears off if they are injured, come into contact with another creature, make too much noise, or use magic.
- Searing Sabre: Gatobolds can conjure a sabre made out of crystallized flames and lava. It functions the same way a normal sabre would, but it dissipates within an hour. Attacks made with the sword deal physical, nonelemental damage and critical attacks inflict burn.
- Delayed Harm: When a gatobold uses a skill that doesn't deal damage their next attack deals 1 extra red damage.
- Red magic affinity: Gatobold kobolds have a natural affinity for red magic. This allows them to freely control fire and lava, using red skills consumes slightly less mana, and they are resistant to harmful effects from wild red magic.
- Red Cleave: Gatobold kobolds can infuse a weapon or body part with their innate red mana to make an attack that deals physical red damage to 1 target within melee range. This skill has a low chance to inflict bleed if the gatobold is using their searing sabre.
- Red Shot: Gatobold kobolds can throw a small fireball to attack foes with red magic from a safe distance.
*red magic = pyrokinesis

Gatobold kobolds are an open species I'll be releasing into creative commons after I finish their full ref (I'll be using cc by 4.0). Until then feel free to make as many as you want and do with them as you please (as long as you credit me for the species). Designs that follow WoS lore might be eligible for some goodies in the future.
