i've noticed a recent trend of dragons and other scalies being called 'kobolds' even when they're imo obviously not? like i've always known of kobolds as weak little lizard people that worship dragons, never even close to human height, and never having hair or more than a few small nubby horns. most of what i'm seeing lately is just wingless dragons. did a new dnd book come out that changed things???


to clarify, a kobold is basically a short, cute, wingless dragon-lizard. but lately folks have been drawing them as tall and muscular, often covered in spikes, which as far as i'm aware is completely inaccurate, and a more accurate race name would be drake.
