In my 4e game, one of the characters in my group is a Dragonborn ranger who has a vendetta against dragons (black ones in particular) and wants to create an empire of dragonborn (and potentially kobolds) that rises up against dragons, or at least shows their superiority. He has promised my character (a wizard) large rewards for helping his character's dream come true.
Other than that small bit of background info, this isn't really edition specific, so I posted it here rather than in the 4e section.
The kobolds in question are living in a forest, and have been troubling people around them for a while. We were sent to remove them from the area by any means necessary (it was assumed we'd kill them, but the guy giving us the job doesn't really care if the kobolds live or die, so long as they're not bothering people anymore). There are likely to be elves nearby. Also, we have some proof that we killed a black dragon previously.
How should we attempt to bargain with the kobolds in order to have them join the empire? (All of the players in the group think having kobold underlings would be awesome, which means there'll probably be at least a moderate attempt to get their characters interested in it as well).
Removing the kobolds is supposed to be a test for admission into a mercenary guild (strange, since we already worked for the guy in removing an ancient evil from the world).
Oh, and finally, we're around level 3, so the empire creation will definitely take a while to get off the ground, but we want to start now.
Any advice for how to gain control of the kobold tribe?
