Anywho, wanna help me out? I know the little creeps stole off with all of my stuff. Stupid me thinkin' that it'd be nice and safe, packed up on the north side of the airstrip.

The term "Kobold" predates the programming language "COBOL" by hundreds of years. Kobolds are german "sprites", and go back as far as the 13th century.

The term is related to Cobalt, however.

The name of the element cobalt comes from the creature's name, because medieval miners blamed the sprite for the poisonous and troublesome nature of the typical arsenical ores of this metal (cobaltite and smaltite) which polluted other mined elements.

"Snobold" may be a reference to SNOBOL, but it's also short for "Snow Kobold". It's probably both.

  • Back to the AirstripBorean Tundra · Level 10-30

    Okay, I think I'm going to start making my way back to the airstrip, too. Of course, I'm moving a little slower with this leg injury. Say, do you think you could get there ahead of me and pass on the good news to Ol' Fizzcrank? I bet anything that there'll be a reward in it for you. Thanks, <name>!

  • Just a Few More Things...Borean Tundra · Level 10-30

    As you may have noticed, we created the airstrip on the southern border of a magnataur den! <Crafty says something uncharitable about Fizzcrank under her breath.> The old man has put me in charge of finding a... ahem...
