Naming a kobold warlock
A kobold warlock carries kobold naming tradition into the warlock's calling. Kobold names are quick, high and clipped — the kind of sound you can yip down a tunnel in the middle of an ambush. Many kobolds think of themselves as servants or distant kin of dragons, so a name that borrows a draconic syllable such as Drak- or Zar- is worn with real pride. A warlock — a bargainer bound to a powerful otherworldly patron — tends toward charged names, sometimes one given in the pact rather than at birth. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
