Editing Kobold (section)

===Post-Tasha's===
Mordekainen's Monsters of the Universe, which re-statted a lot of monsters and races in the post-Tasha's standards, and the Kobolds were among those that got a rather drastic rewrite.

::Ability Score Modifier: +2 to one stat and +1 to a second or +1 to three different stats
::Size: Small
::Speed: 30 feet
::Darkvision: 60 feet
::Draconic Cry: As a bonus action, you let out a cry at your enemies within 10 feet of you. Until the start of your next turn, you and your allies have advantage on attack rolls against any of those enemies who could hear 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. 
::Kobold Legacy: Kobolds' connection to dragons can manifest in unpredictable ways in an individual kobold. Choose one of the following legacy options for your kobold: 
*''Craftiness:'' You have proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: Arcana, Investigation, Medicine, Sleight of Hand, or Survival. 
*''Defiance:'' You have advantage on saving throws to avoid or end the frightened condition on yourself. 
*''Draconic Sorcery:'' You know one cantrip of your choice from the sorcerer spell list. Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma is your spellcasting ability for that cantrip (choose when you select this race).

Compared to the original draft, this version is considerably stronger. Genericization of the stats aside, the comical grovel is replaced with something considerably stronger by affecting a lot more enemies even if it has fewer uses. The loss of Pack Tactics is probably the worst issue, but the option between an extra skill or a free cantrip are both some decent perks.
