2. That humans either are or are not roughly similar (we've heard arguments for both sides) in their demeanor and treatment of orcs.

But, to come back to the issue at hand, this is really about the existence of xvarts in society, and the role they should play. We can commission another executive investigation into orcish society later (*sigh*) but for now, we should really decide a process of investigation for and or against the integration of xvarts into 'civilized society'.
Yes I agree. I aplogize from averting this topic's direction to orcs and such. We shall discuss about them another day. Now back to Xvart integration.

for the discussion on orcs etc. I have a quote from Warcraft 3 which i think pretty much sums it up. "You are fallen beyond redemption" But anyway I think we should get back on topic here, maybe we should open another thread on this matter

Yes we should. As I were saying!

Xvart's can be recruited in the military. Xvart's are experts in guriella warfare. And they can be scouts in areas familiar to them and stuff....My mind is drenched dry from a big test at school today so I can hardly think of anything.

I have a use for Xvarts in a war...stick them in sacks and take them out when you're hungry

People of the senate why do you desire Xvart to be meals? Is it because kobolds are classified as meals? If we discuss orc next are some of you going to want to eat ORC! Or gnoll and such. Or what about the pointy eared elves! Elves don't have full rights. Or what about nymphs! Should we integrate with them! If someone proposes we do will someone say they wanna eat them TOO!?!?! Or what about *gets shot in the back with a tranqulizer*

Oh yes - your right - not all monsters are as tasty as kobolds. Lets just cook the other monsters and have a food fight

BTW: I believe that the xvarts (egg farts!!??) are civilized. After all they do have a language, and they do build huts and they are able to use fire for cooking. I normally do not have enough time to wipe out their cities, therefor I often leave their cities as they are. When it comes to integration, I'll vote for a NO on the other hand. Leave them alone, I'll say.

A food fight? Dude not only I don't want to get hit in the head with a kobold head it's a waste of food.

Xvarts (No not egg farts!) don't have cities. They have small villages scattred throughout the coast. We should just integrate with them for a limited period time as an expirement. No I'm not just talking about 25 days or 50 days. I am talking about small numbers here (Did I just hear a sigh of relief?) at least five years! (Did I just hear a gasp?) It will take a long time for people to change their minds about the race. First impressions are almost always deceiving. Give the Xvarts a chance I am sure they will do the same for you.
