Believe it or not, we kobolds are happiest when making ourselves useful to friends and family. You could be a warrior defending the tribe, a stag beetle herder providing food, a miner getting shinies from the earth. Or you could be like me, a master of things that make adventurers scream in pain and surprise! In other words, (drum roll, please) traps!
But one thing we figured out a long time ago (after getting skewered and stomped on by TONS of first-level adventurers): you don't always get to keep those expensive toys. Sometimes you have to make do with what you have. And you know what that means: forget state-of-the-art tech and break out the bubble gum, twine, and spit.
Lots of spit.
Luckily the Underdark is never without the odd bit of scrap metal, leather, and sticky stuff. I remember the awesome scrap I scrounged after a mind flayer got ganked by a paladin. Metal shards and slime. Luckily, I got out of there before the local carrion crawler showed up.

I've said it before and I'll say it until you want to squish me: I love my work...
