Traits

Cunning Action. On each of its turns, the king kobold can use a bonus action to take the Dash, Disengage, or Hide action.

Sneak Attack (1/Turn). The king kobold deals an extra 14 (4d6) damage when it hits a target with a weapon attack and has advantage on the attack roll, or when the target is within 5 feet of an ally of the king that isn't incapacitated and the king doesn't have disadvantage on the attack roll.

Sunlight Sensitivity. While in sunlight, the king has disadvantage on attack rolls and on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight.

It has the following wizard spells prepared: Cantrips (at will): fire bolt, mage hand, minor illusion, poison spray 1st level (4 slots): alarm, grease, mage armor 2nd level (3 slots): alter self, hold person, invisibility
