Favorite Fantasy Race, and Why.. - Page 2

LennonCook · 01-19-2002, 12:18 AM

I like Elves because they are very agile (dex bonus), and specifically High Elves because theyre the first i ever heard of.

Gilles Villeneuve vs Jacques Villeneuve in a McLaren!

Oh, you're looking for D&D type of race. I'd like Rohirim from MERP, the best.

I like elves... instead of giving you a reason, I'll quote Aurican, who summed it up perfectly:

They are very in-touch with the earth yet set apart from its inhabitants giving them a sense of mystery. The pointy ears and large eyes are a very attractive element too. I like tolkein elves more than DnD because they are typically taller than the average human yet of slimmer build.

BTW, I count drow among elves. I like everything about them - except the fact that they're evil!

After elves comes dragons (good) because of their grace, beauty and abilities (flying! [img]smile.gif[/img] ), yet also their wisdom and mercy (I said GOOD dragons).

I like drow because they show no mercy on the battle field. I also like them because of there just very interesting their society life style of that.

thri-kreen from dark sun. They are unstoppable butt kickers if done right.

Well, I've got three favorites:

#1: Thri-keen: Natural psionics, four arms to wield many weapons and they look cool, too bad they die after 35 years or so though, and have a low intelligence.

#2: Elves, they're wise, agile, magically skilled, attuned to whatever enviroment their particular sub-breed of elf lives in.

#3: Dragons, ancient, wise(Except for a few kinds, like the white ones.), intelligent(Again, except for a few kinds.), strong, I like Gem dragons the best, neutral, more intelligent than both Chromatic and Metallic dragons and powerful psionics as well as having priest and mage spells.

Werewolves
The fact that you can change shape, has always fascinated me [img]smile.gif[/img]

I don't think werewolves are race, supposed to be a curse [img]tongue.gif[/img]

In 3rd Edition I like Humans because of the bonus skill points/initial feat

But I like RPing Dwarves best
