===Kobolds===
Kobolds are a race native to Palantium, in fact, the only other race native to it. They were enslaved long ago by the Imperials as laborers and just sort of stuck, becoming a fixture in every household.
‘’Ostaur’ghil’’, the enlightened young, are numerous in number in modern Palantium. They hold higher status than most Manes, at least towards Sumil opinion, and can be found in nearly every position from merchant to stablehand.
Kobolds are exempt from any military work, since the nobility value them for their skills as craftsmen and shipwrights more than their ability to fight.
As non-humans, kobolds are not permitted to use or manipulate any form of magic, and families are required to turn in magic using kobolds to the Imperial Knights.
Kobolds have long forgotten any ties to the true dragons that they might have once had as a race, and the dragon wrought are completely unheard of.
Palantium kobolds are often quite eloquent, since most families can afford advanced schooling for their children. Very, very few kobolds live at a lower class or poverty level, but most families are connected or living with noble or merchant houses. House Shrinad in particular employs nearly a third of the population of kobolds (about fifteen hundred individuals) to assemble ships and buildings through the shard; most of these kobolds live on the house’s shipyards or in the family home in the Elder District.
