[OoC: Betimi's intimidate action is a little peculiar. I know what she is going for but I think it would be more of a Diplomacy check. Different targets of diplomacy are influenced in different ways. Some you manipulate, others you sweet talk and Kobolds you forcefully explain why them working with you would be in their best interests. But I will take everything and everyone into account when I decide how he reacts and I will include an intimidate synergy with diplomacy.]
The kobold was from this new tribe who were trying to set up a different life for themselves and hatchlings. He knew it would sound crazy to almost anyone that they could still follow a leader like Unreth but in a way it had become an accepted way of life. It was one of the reasons why they evolved to have such high birthrates. If it weren't for them being used as fodder or food by other races or monsters, their population would explode! It was a rather sad life for them which is why this group tried to get out. But a monster found them anyways. An extremely hungry monster.
"I undersstand," the Kobold replies. "You humanss have a ssaying. Old habitss, die hard. In headss we know but insstinct iss a powerful thing to ignore."
When Betimi makes herself known, the Kobold's body jerks with surprise. He points his spear at her preparing to run her threw. She quickly [Fast Diplomacy -10 = full round action instead of 1 minute.] explains that he might want to rethink his position on Unreth then both Nacesh and Selina get in on the conversation too.
The kobold's gaze falls to the ground like he's considering their offer. He suddenly nods, then with a wave of his hand and quiet, 'shushing' sound you all see yourselves change into Kobolds. "Come with me, but sstay close. Sspell area ssmall. Sstep out of Illussion and your true formss be revealed."
If you follow him, he takes you around the corner where quickly speaks to another Kobold in common. "Thesse will not hurt uss. They friendss." Looking around you see three empty barrels, a large wheel barrel and another empty large box all lined up against the southern wall. There's also a metal statue at your feet. You all are a little startled when it tries to speak but you can only make out the word, "Help..."
Some pebbles fall on Betimi's head from above.

"Having a scary guardian is good but her eating the fiercest of the tribe is wrong. Dragonkin life is dearest of all."
