Kobold facts: kobolds make excellent backpackers, as at least two of them can fit inside a regular backpack.

Trapfinders! Chapter 6, Page 010 "Anti-Aliased" Theodore is pretty upset at a possible betrayal. but Hiroko clears the air - well, before Anna gets a little brash... http://www.trapfinders.com/comic/cuz-waking-up-is-hard-to-do/

Kobold facts: the Everburning Torch was not originally designed with a voice activated “off” switch; this was added by kobold sorcerers with a flair for the dramatic—so ‘shirak’ is often the last thing an adventurer will hear before the lights go out.

Kobold facts: Boxing Day takes on special significance to kobolds, as it is the one day a year dedicated to boxing up and shipping away gnomes of various types.

Kobold facts: when you tell a kobold “Happy Holidays,” they take it as a direct order to enhappify and add delight to all holidays equally-except for the gnomish holiday of St. Sprinkle’s Feast, which they actively disdain, and vent their anger by throwing rocks at passing gnomes.

Happy holidays to all who celebrate! I didn’t have a lot of time or energy this year so I apologize if my usual Christmas/new years piece is a little formulaic! But it’s got a lady with abs and that’s pretty dang neat I tells ya.

Kobold facts: please be advised that all kobolds are currently active, and we are at Ambush Level Omega; be wary that Christmas trees, presents, and stockings all have a high chance of containing kobolds. Leave a plate of cookies on the floor and they will disperse naturally.

Kobold facts: communication is key between kobolds and entire warrens - while some adapt to environments with ingenuity (like the stealthy Hooz’ther tribe hand signals) others make worthy attempts, like the Hahk’Coph tribe’s smoke signals (which unfortunately do not translate well underground.)

A happy Tiamas to those that cower beneath dragon queen Tiamat’s might! We made a wreath to celebrate Her amazingness on stream last night; pine to represent her evergreen fury, poison berries, and the standards and heralds of those I’ve conquered. Such a festive, colorful time! Happy Tiamas!!

We are streaming art and good times! www.twitch.tv/fabianzibb

Kobold facts: Tiamas is a well loved tradition amongst the warrens. Featuring food, music, feasting and bonding, it is a celebration of Tiamat’s rise to godhood. Stories of mangers and stars to barn animals and kings, Tiamas proves that She can—and will!—devour anything.

Trapfinders! Chapter 6, Page 009 "Cuz Wakin' Up is Hard to Do" After a splashy introduction, Hiroko shakes off the dream--only to be confrinted with another reality... http://www.trapfinders.com/comic/cuz-waking-up-is-hard-to-do/

Kobold facts: most dragons eschew loud mining tech and prefer traditional hand-powered mining by their kobolds-this is for the distinct purpose of hearing the kobolds’ ancient mining shanties, including ‘Gnome Fall Down, Spirits Up,’ ‘Tiamat is Coming to Town’ and more.

Streaming a Freeform Friday! Gonna catch up on some art. www.twitch.tv/fabianzibb

Kobold facts: kobold lawyers are the worst thing to see on the opposite side of the courtroom. At least a hundred of them screeching in their tiny suits, and just as many tiny briefcases. Judges rule in their favor just to get their litigation riot under control.

Kobold facts: kobold weddings are just about as chaotic and stressful as regular weddings, but they are more likely to involve hazardous gases, dangerous structural faults, and about 30% more heavy duty mining equipment.

Hey! I’m streaming! I know right! Late start so we might go a little longer than normal - it’s winning Wednesday so we are up to our horns in games! www.twitch.tv/fabianzibb

Kobold facts: kobolds do very well as photo developers due to their innate darkvision and attention to detail-since the invention of digital cameras, however, most photo developer kobolds just hang out in the darkroom and pretend they’re on a submarine.

Kobold facts: kobold writers are another rare occurrence in kobold society. This is not due to a dearth of the written word in kobold warrens-graffiti alone accounts for much of it-but the fact remains that it is hard to keep dirt out of a typewriter while underground.

Streaming - I built some chairs and I must stream www.twitch.tv/fabianzibb

Kobold facts: kobold warlocks are rare-this has less to do with the inherent dangers of forging pacts with otherworldly beings from beyond the veil, and more to do with every one of them wanting Tiamat for a patron.

Trapfinders Chapter 6, page 8: 'Sunrise Splashdown' One nightmare ends... http://www.trapfinders.com/comic/sunrise-splashdown

Kobold facts: kobolds have formed Tiamat’s Trackers, a youth scout organization dedicated to the conservation of the underground wilderness, gaining survival techniques, understanding how traps function and their varying deadliness, and of course learning how to sell cookies.

Kobold facts: the educational kobold boardgame of choice for hatchlings is Mouse Trap.

Kobold facts: the bitter kobold/gnome feud was started when gnomes insisted there was an invisible, unpronounceable G at the beginning of their race’s name. Unable to accept phantom letters and believing this to be some kind of trick, kobolds declared a never ending war.

Kobold facts: kobold detectives often earn the nickname ‘gas miners,’ referring both to foolish kobolds that dig where danger is apparent, as well as one that exposes danger and corruption. These kobolds are marked at birth, as they-and they alone-can grow a grizzled 5 o’clock shadow.

How is it the year of our lord 2025 and there is not a podcast featuring @renegadekangaroo.bsky.social interviewing individuals called “Ren and Fren”

Kobold facts: kobolds tune the “twang” of a hidden crossbow bolt to a minor key to emphasize the doom.

Kobold facts: kobold portrait artists become closely involved with their dragons’ lives. Kobold artists learn quickly, as well, that dragon horns are always massive and impressive, their rumps and stomachs are always taut, and they must be depicted as godlike at all times. Or else.

New comic!  'Fathoms Deep' https://www.trapfinders.com/comic/fathoms-deep/ Trapfinders Chapter 6, page 7 #trapfinders #webcomic #hiroko #fox #solo #swimsuit #nightmare #underwater #female

Kobold facts: the Zuu’mii tribe serving Permafrostbite the white dragon has a curious love of collecting fallen adventurers’ shields - as it turns out, a tower shield functions almost exactly like a tobaggan for up to twelve kobolds. Snowbucklering is also popular.

Kobold Facts: kobolds are unique in that the discovery of a mimic in their lairs is usually cause for celebration. Having their warrens be ‘chosen’ for habitation by a mimic is an honor among kobolds, and weeds out the dumber ‘bolds in the process.

This was a real vibe growing up, a good seat on the floor in front of the tube!

Kobold facts; one of the benefits of working underground and in mines all the time is that the t flies by for most kobolds. Getting up to go to work on a Monday only to go to bed two Thursdays later is a trip. As a result, kobolds are terrible at calendars.

Got going a bit late, streaming some games tonight www.twitch.tv/fabianzibb

Kobold facts: the deliberate act of physically bumping a kobold’s lower body into tallfolk is called a “yip check.”

Kobold facts: when snow tires or chains are unavailable or just plain forgotten, kobolds will offer to lean out your car windows with acetylene torches onto help beat back the ice. They call it ‘dragon wagoning’ and it is sweeping the nation like a flaming car on the highway.

Normalize calling everyone "delicious friend"

Kobold facts: aside from kobolds that serve white dragons, most kobolds see snow as a harbinger of cold doom and darkness. Kobolds that serve white dragons feel this way too, for the most part. However, they usually get outfitted with neat puffy jackets and snow pants beforehand.

New comic! “Depths of Despair” www.trapfinders.com/comic/depths...

Sorry to hear Tom Stoppard passed away; I performed locally in two of his works, Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are Dead, and The Real Inspector Hound. Fun shows both, some of the most memorable pieces I had the fortune to play in.

Kobold facts: sometimes kobolds get so busy they forget important things, like bestowing important knowledge on strangers. Fortunately it doesn’t happen often!

Kobold facts: kobolds participate in ‘Gold Friday,’ a specific day of the year that dragons encourage them to go out and acquire all the gold they can for the hoard—this means kobolds will cobble together trinkets and baubles from their victims for sale to at vastly inflated prices.

Kobold facts: kobold thanksgiving feasts are raucous affairs, often lasting several days and involving many neighboring tribes and a broad array of celebrations. Once the feast concludes, kobolds return to their warrens and tribes, eager to prepare for Tiamas.

Kobold facts: kobold firefighters are required in every warren. These kobolds fill the same role as in other societies, often in addition to their regular jobs - however there is a new dimension to the role when battling literal fire elementals is added to the mix.

Everyone be sure to check out Damian’s work, I love it and so should you!
