Races from beyond the Black Stump

Kobolds and Goblins and Bugbears oh my!

Never seen reverse dungeon but did have Orcs of Thar and had used in play. I figured making races as classes would make humanoids more respected, usable at high level and make them a little less traditional DnD. But I still wanted homage to them. I have also been making my monsters accord with Wikipedia more than the monster manuals. Sorry. I dont really know why. It does make for interesting little folk. These are considered heroes of their race.

Elves and goblins are kinfolk and faerie creatures
Orcs were made from orc and bred with man to create a race of evil soldiers
Dwarves, gnomes, trolls and kobolds are kin

Diminutive folk are mischievous, crafty and cunning. They can also be amusing companions. Dislike big folk intruding on their turf and are resentful of humans. Can be lascivious and sleazy and breed rapidly. They trap locations they want humans gone from like mines but do like wine and can be jolly even friendly if drunk. While diminutive they are magical enough to make enchanted traps, locks and other items. Miners and merchants publish propaganda about how evil kobolds are.
