If you've got a problem with jumping you take it up with Christopher Cross

Well, if you have the right cosmetics ... and you stick a bunch of points into jump and dodge
as a halfling druid ... you can kinda pull it off

Not the same
Imagine having to jump through these hoops just to be an elf. Though in all fairness that was the level of "didn't want players to play non humans" we had to deal with in original D&D

You could get a bunch of these to channel your spirit animal... https://ddowiki.com/page/Item:Kobold_Gem_of_Disguising
It is unfortunately a shallow option for the reel deel...

Shallow indeed
I also do my best to avoid referring to things as "spirit animals" since I'm not Native, and I can't really call them fursonas.
Wait, yes I can

Stuck in a heat wave in a similar way to how we're stuck in a playable koboldless DDO
And much like a heat wave, it will become cooler by introducing playable kobolds

Love that Kobolds are winning the popular vote
Dislike that certain players can only be subtractive about our genuine enthusiasm though

I was about to say "I doubt you're going to see a new race that has digitigrade legs as it requires a lot of new animation work for player characters" but then I remembered Tabaxi got added so yeah, Kobolds please...but what would be their bonus stat? Charisma because they're cute little guys? Wisdom because they know when it's important to remember the waterworks?
-4 Strength, +2 Dexterity, -2 Constitution.
Small size: +1 bonus to Armor Class, +1 bonus on attack rolls, +4 bonus on Hide checks, carrying limits ¾ those of Medium characters.
+2 Search, bonus to trap making, maybe can always make traps?
+1 Natural AC
Should have Darkvision, but not implemented on races in DDO

Probably wouldn't go with the official D&D rules because it's not generally in DDO's style to add new races that are at a -4 defecit to base ability scores.

You forgot the jumping dodge ability, maybe have it
as a version of defensive roll always on.

They should have evasion in their racial tree.

They don't even have yarking tails!One could argue we already got playable Kobolds, DDO called them Dragonborn

Honestly I don't mind the idea of an ability score deficit because playing optimally bores me to tears, but I think their base popularity would take a hit with a lot of players for that -4
