Kobolds In Space
a race mod by @CaptainKobold and @Bucketlamp
Development Roadmap
Why Kobolds?
Kobolds have a long, varied history as weak little beasts who at best provide short times of amusement for angry heroes. One offshoot of this mythos is the "cutebold" from the very excellent game Dwarf Fortress. These specific 'bolds are daring, adorable, and terribly useless in all manner of situations.
This mod aims to capture the role of a primitive, unintelligent kobold who has abruptly ended up in the stars. Your kobold will lack for advanced knowledge, create inferior equipment, and just generally be less suited for the adventuring life. This will create an added challenge with the extra benefit of adorable little kobolds.
On the plus side, they have the gods and spirits behind them. Sacrifice metals to the dark god Arrengee to get animal spirits that will buff you of improve your equipment!

Installation:
Download your kobolds!
Open the file!
Extract the folder: "kobolds" to your "..\starbound\mods" library

I believe that this will require either the XBawks Character Creator or the Simple Extended Character Mod to play.

Thank you for the input! The spears will in the next update become directional, but at this time I don't think there is plan to re-institute the base digging tool as a starting item. That said, I've been toying with ideas related to stealing more advanced technology in order to get those! It may depend slightly upon where the base game goes!

That sounds like it shouldn't have happened that way! Hopefully we'll have a new version out soon (production starting again) which should fix that up. It'd say there's a good chance it's a leftover testing thing I forgot to switch.

Thank you very much!
We're definitely still playing with how the spirit anvil works a little bit. The way that you use it is a little limited currently (because we're still working on adding in ALL of the various weapons), but basically you create a hammered weapon at the altar to Arrengee and then put the hammered weapon and a matching spirit on the spirit anvil!
Currently (with what I think this version has) the available weapons are an iron wolf broadsword and a steel snake spear. Next version there should be quite a bit more, though it may not all be fully redesigned yet.
