Kobold

Kobolds are often dismissed as cowardly, foolish, and weak, but these little reptilian creatures actually have a strong social structure that stresses devotion to the tribe, are clever with their hands, and viciously work together in order to overcome their physical limitations.
ability score increase: Your Dexterity score increases by 2, and your Intelligence score increases by 1.
age: Kobolds reach adulthood at age 6 and can live up to 120 years but rarely do so.
alignment: Kobolds are fundamentally selfish, making them evil, but their reliance on the strength of their group makes them trend toward law.
Size: Small
speed: Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Languages: You can speak, read, and write Common and Draconic.
race features:
Darkvision. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern colour in darkness, only shades of grey.   Grovel, Cower, and Beg. As a bonus action on your turn, you can cower pathetically to distract nearby foes. Until the end of your next turn, your allies gain advantage on attack rolls against enemies within 10 feet of you that can see you. You can use this trait a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.   Pack Tactics. You have advantage on an attack roll against a creature if at least one of your allies is within 5 feet of the creature and the ally isn't incapacitated.   Sunlight Sensitivity. You have disadvantage on attack rolls and on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight when you, the target of your attack, or whatever you are trying to perceive is in direct sunlight.
Kobold scales tend to be rust colored, although the occasional kobold sports a scale color more akin to that of a chromatic or a metallic dragon.
