- The villagers in one of the settlements are prejudiced against the kobolds that live in the other village. They use a century-old conflict as the reason for their hateful discourse. Kobold Players might experience difficulties in their interactions with some Non Player Characters similar to those due to racism in real life. Resolving the adventure may put an end to the animosity but does not erase years of prejudice.

- Their is no sources of light in the underground complex except for the ones the characters bring with them.
