I see that, true. Thanks. I suppose if feels like this little critter would be a lot tougher than a level 1 PC which seems unthematic but also makes early adventuring nicely dangerous .
I'm curious about the the "double their hit dice and treat then as D10s" rule for "monsters" - I'm picturing a tiny Kobold (e.g. D&D 5e, 2d6-2).Does it feel right to give her 4d10 hit dice, for an average of 22hp?
