Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Thamior on December 26, 2003, 05:12:35 PM As I said before, the only RPG I've ever played is DnD. I usually end up playing an elf or half-elf. I'm a fan of the pointy ears. I never really liked Dwarves until Gimli from LotR, so I haven't played one of those (yet). With the 3E and 3.5 ruleset for DnD I can't play a small character (Halfling and Gnome) because the -2 Str penalty is too much of a downfall for me. Humans are boring because I'm a human in real life, and Half-Orcs are fugly/dumb. So yeah, I pretty much play elves and half-elves.

Sometimes if I need a change, Il do an Elf character though. Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Paladin_Lothar on December 27, 2003, 07:19:54 PM hmmmmm....Elves are good to be ranger or wisard not fighters...but I like them because they are beautiful :) But I always play with human.At AD&D because humans only could become paladin and at D&D cause of the bonus :) so............i can see that there are too few that play D&D...pity....
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Thamior on December 27, 2003, 09:23:19 PM Not necessarily, they might just have not seen this thread yet. :D DnD is a great game though. I like getting to use my imagination for a change. Also, it's really fun to see your character develop physically AND socially.
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Paladin_Lothar on December 28, 2003, 01:42:22 AM I am playing RPG(P&P) since 1991 from AD&D..... good old days...I remember my first CRPG game...Eye of The Beholder 1 ..bet almost noone knows it..:P
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Filran on December 28, 2003, 03:29:19 AM I've never played a single D&D game, but I can still say my prefered race. Humans if they are avaliable. Usually I do alot of free form, so you can be whatever, as long as there are limitations. Alot of the time you can find me playing canine furres, or feral wolves. It all depends.

Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Thamior on January 10, 2004, 05:54:12 PM Do you get a +10 to your Jump checks in DnD?
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: SS on January 11, 2004, 02:48:24 PM Like everyone else here, it seems, I'm always Human, Elf, or Half-Elf.
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Perdition on January 11, 2004, 09:20:10 PM ooo I wonder what would happen if you mixed an orc and an elf. probobly come out with a human like creature
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: SS on January 11, 2004, 09:52:22 PM Nah, I don't think that would be possible. Incompatible blood-types probably.
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Rug on January 11, 2004, 09:58:13 PM Been covered. Stillborn.
Humans and Orcs, and Humans and Elves work fine; most other unions will result in stillbirth, or nothing at all. Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Perdition on January 11, 2004, 11:36:52 PM score. *turns into elf and goes off to fish orc*
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: GandalfTheOld on February 02, 2004, 11:53:38 PM hmm... i thought humans + orcs = half-orcs; elves + orcs = trolls or goblins... unless i forgot this part of the detail in LotR when i read the books long time ago...
anywho, i love magic-using races... which tends to be humans, elves, half-elves, and at times, dark elves and drows... Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: SS on February 03, 2004, 12:22:17 AM uh, dark elves = drow? :miffed:
Trolls are trolls are trolls. I have heard claims that "orc" is just the hobbit word for "goblin", but even if that was originally true, the two are clearly different now. Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Everous on February 12, 2004, 03:09:08 AM depends on what mythology you go by...
heres a much simplified version orc = lotr talk for goblin it explains at the start of "the hobbit" orc = elves tortured and corrupted by morgoth in the dark years. Therefore dark elves may be interpreted as orcs in LOTR. However, the dark elves also apply to all of the elves who at the comming of Orome grew afraid and ran off, therefore they were neither of the sindar, or the eldar. Maybe they were all corrupted by Morgoth or killed, it dosen't say. There was also a dark elf called Eol...but he was just wierd and never went out... in norse mythology dark elf = dvergar = kinda dwarf guys edit: yup...first post in here...not bad Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: SS on February 12, 2004, 03:30:17 AM Blah. I should just establish my own system and force everyone to use it. :P
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Perdition on February 12, 2004, 03:34:13 AM yeah that will happen :rolleyes:
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: SS on February 12, 2004, 03:45:00 AM It will, once I've got control of Microsoft and Macromedia, I can put subliminal messaging into IE & Flash making them accept my distinct Orcs, Goblins, Elves, Dark Elves, Dwarves, and everything else. :P
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Perdition on February 12, 2004, 03:48:16 AM if you can do it thats cool. but by that time would you even care about it anymore?
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: SS on February 12, 2004, 04:10:16 AM 'Course they will, it wont take that long... gime till 2020. :P
Title: What race do you prefer and why? Post by: Perdition on February 12, 2004, 04:16:21 AM why do it for them? do it for you.
