These are the emerald eyes._ \n**Servants of Logic.** A mystic or psion will debate logic with a speaking crystal based on his rational mind, or discuss morality with a speaking crystal based on his conscience. Chaotic psions create speaking crystals based on their primal urges, and such crystals sometimes abandon or even kill their creators. Once free, they revel in the world’s pleasures. \n**Trapped Manipulators.** Most speaking crystals are pink or purple when created, but those that betray their creators turn a dark shade of green. These floating oval-shaped crystals are physically weak, but they retain considerable magical powers to manipulate those around them. This becomes critically important when the emerald eye discovers that killing its creator frees it from the creator’s control but doesn’t free it from the need to remain within 25 feet of some creature it is bound to. This is often the dead body of its creator if no other creature is available. \n**Shifting Goals.** An emerald eye’s motivations change over time. One may be purposeful, using its powers to drive its bound creature toward some specific goal. Another might feign cooperativeness, offering to share its defensive abilities in exchange for the creature’s mobility. Still another might be a manipulative trickster, pretending to be an ioun stone, floating in circles around an ally’s or victim’s head while sparkling brightly to inspire jealousy and theft among its viewers. \nSmaller than a clenched fist, an emerald eye weighs at most half a pound. \n**Constructed Nature.** An emerald eye doesn’t require air, food, drink, or sleep.", "name": "Emerald Eye", "size": "Tiny", "type": "Construct", "subtype": "", "group": null, "alignment": "chaotic evil", "armor_class": 14, "armor_desc": "", "hit_points": 54, "hit_dice": "12d4+24", "speed": { "hover": true, "walk": 0, "fly": 30 }, "strength": 3, "dexterity": 15, "constitution": 14, "intelligence": 15, "wisdom": 12, "charisma": 16, "strength_save": null, "dexterity_save": 4, "constitution_save": 4, "intelligence_save": 4, "wisdom_save": null, "charisma_save": null, "perception": 3, "skills": { "acrobatics": 4, "arcana": 4, "deception": 5, "history": 4, "perception": 3, "persuasion": 5, "religion": 4 }, "damage_vulnerabilities": "", "damage_resistances": "cold, fire; piercing damage", "damage_immunities": "poison", "condition_immunities": "blinded, deafened, exhausted, paralyzed, petrified, poisoned, prone, unconscious", "senses": "blindsight 60ft, passive Perception 13", "languages": "Common, Draconic, telepathy 250 ft.", "challenge_rating": "1", "cr": 1.0, "actions": [ { "name": "Slash", "desc": "Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.

Tattered clothing hangs from its muscled shoulders, and its legs are those of a ram, ending in cloven hooves._ \n**Trespassers on the Rites.** The first of the goat-men was the victim of a powerful curse intended to punish him for spying on magical rites exclusive to the women of his tribe. Admiring the grotesque result, the Black Goat of the Woods With a Thousand Young adopted him as its servant, and ensured that all who committed the same taboo fell to the same curse, and thus into the Black Goat’s service. \n**Bleating Speech.** A goat-man’s head is tusked, adorned with curling ram’s horns, and its beard often drips with gore. Rows of transparent, needle-like teeth fill its mouth; these teeth are malformed and make clear speech impossible for goat-men, though they understand others’ speech perfectly well. \n**Serve Foul Cults.** Cultists of Shub-Niggurath or the Black Goat in good standing are sometimes granted the services of a goat-man.

They are small but fierce when fighting on their own terms, and their weight of numbers helps them survive in places where larger but less numerous races can’t sustain a settlement. Kobolds are great miners, good gearsmiths, and modest alchemists, and they have a curiosity about the world that frequently gets them into trouble. \n_**Underworld Merchants.**_ Kobolds are merchants to both the surface world and the world beneath it, with their greatest cities hidden deep below the earth. Their enemies are the diabolical gnomes, the dwarves, and any other mining races that seek dominance of dark, rich territories. \nKobolds are closely allied with and related to dragonborn, drakes, and dragons.
