Kolobok is a Russain folk tale and one of Sasha's favorite stories. Its very like "The Gingerbread Man" but instead of a gingerbread man, its a round roll.

The Rules for telling it include the need to sing the Kolobok song, and remember to act out all the parts you can.

I've been wondering when we'd get some more Sasha stories. I guess this dobie will do! ;-)

I have some Russian friends who've mentioned this. When I read the other thread title it rang a bell but I couldn't place where, but this is it. Good dobie [Smile]

The rules of Kobold:
1) Never go solo against more kobold than you can count without using your fingers.
2) When you see a kobold, ask yourself "How likely is it that the DM is trying to humiliate you and kill your character?" Respond appropriately.
3) Remember -- kobolds are no longer furry little goblin-like creatures. They are now little reptilian creatures, and they get cranky if you forget.
4) If you see a kobold in funny clothes, it's probably a sorcerer. Proceed with caution.
5) If you are an evil halfling, your evil counterpart is probably a kobold. Not that this will help you in any way, but still.

So I did.
