>You are either a tranny tiefling warlock or a human male fighterWhy did games have to be this way for 10 FUCKING YEARS
>>97857071They didn't have to be, but you lack imagination.
>>97857071There is a third path, a third option.A union of the two paths.Drow elf ranger with two swords.
>>97857071>strawmanningThe most popular DnD characters are human fighter, elf wizard, elf rogue, and dragonborn paladinTieflings are popular but not dominant, the tiefling warlock is about as popular as the half-elf bardCombinations more likely due to stats than anything else
Have you tried not browsing /tg/
>>97857071What if I just want to be a dragon?
>>97857071Traditional games?
>>97858113Somehow the rest of the internet manages to be worse.
>>97857975The only person I know who's played a tiefling in my groups was me.I was a monk.
>>97857975>Tieflings are popular but not dominantThere's two kinds of people that play tieflings:1) People who want to do some evil things occasionally because it's fun.2) People with victim complexes that need to fantasize about getting revenge against bigots, but will throw a fit if their GM actually portrays a world that is legitimately and rightfully bigoted against tieflings.
>>97858665there are two groups that absolutely dwarf those you mentioned>people who think devil horns and technocolor skin is cool>people who want the charisma bonus to play warlock
>>97858716>people who think devil horns and technocolor skin is coolPastel people are definitely Group 2.>people who want the charisma bonus to play warlockMetagamers are Group 1.
>>97858733>Pastel people are definitely Group 2.few of my tiefling players ever even bring up bigotrythey just wanted to play a devil-looking characterits dwarf and elf players who tend to engage in fantasy racism instead>Metagamers are Group 1.also in my experience, few people will engage in villainy unless you explicitly say you want to run an evil campaignso people will just right chaotic good on their tiefling warlock and we never have any trouble with evilmy only player who ever willingly chose to engage in evil in a regular session was a human
>>97858747>chaotic good on their tiefling warlockabsolutely disgusting
>>97858749just saying, i get way more of those than evil warlocksand way more elves and dwarves who engage in racism, both giving and recieving the number of people who play tiefling to be evil and the number of people who throw shitfits as tiefling are the minortity not the majority
>>97858665Holy shit, yeah, 2 is even tiefling player I've ever encountered, and like 5 of them were pooners with names like Oliver IRL and inevitably Damian In Character
>>97857071>have campaign take place entirely in the underdark, starting at level 1>force players to be drow, duergar, svirfneblin, githyanki/zerei, kuo-toa, myconid, tiefling, or possibly mountain dwarf (closest race to underdark)>don't allow any one player to play the same race as another>don't allow any one player to play the same class as another, including multiclass (lockadin means no one else can be warlock OR paladin)
>>97858753>just saying, i get way more of those than evil warlocks>the number of people who play tiefling to be evil and the number of people who throw shitfits as tiefling are the minortity not the majorityI'm envious of your personal playerbase.
>>97858778So you make them roll up their character sheet one at a time? First time I've ever heard of single draft character creation. Do you have them draw straws for pick order?
>>97858838It's an underdark campaign so whoever stabs the others in the back rises to the top naturally.Being polite means you're stuck playing a svirfneblin.
>>97857071In the several years of playing 5e, I'm the only person who played a tiefling, but he was a rogue. I did play him as a super gay femboy though, but I purposefully made a fetish character because another player in my group was being shitty about the first character I made.
>>97857071Hah, shows what you know, I'm a furry cleric!
>>97857071I have actual irl friends I play with because I'm not an autistic loser. Never encountered this shit.
>>97857975I'd expect human wizard to be the second most popular after human fighter desu
>OP
>>97857071I like to make female characters, and I decide their actions and behaviors with full knowledge and understanding that they are not me; it's simply a matter of wanting to see lady characters who give a damn about something other than themselves, and who are just weak eye candy or snarky girlboss planks of wood.What sort of characters do you like to make? I didn't see your preferences among all the complaining you did about what other people do. You might have a better time if you focus more on what you like, than on what others do that gets on your nerves, just saying.
>You are either a tranny, tiefling, warlock, human, male or a fighterMake a setting out of it /tg/
>>97860148take Thirsty Sword Lesbians as a base>Magical Girls are technically warlocks>Lesbians are sub-species for tranny (which is a catch-all for anything under the rainbow flag)and just add expansion with opposing faction of fighting men
>>97857071This literally was not the case doebeit
>>97861735I read the lezzer who wrote that don't make games no more.Cited "The Industry" being a snakepit and a lack of desire to persist in it.
>>97857071What if I'm both?
>>97857071who are you quoting?
Have you tried not playing D&D?
>>97857071Can you really not see past the dichotomy created by your identity politics?>You are either a tranny tiefling warlock or a human male fighterThis is only describing you. Not anyone else.
>>97857071I just think knights are cool.
>>97857071Why would you play a game with freakshit?
>>97867195Cuz it's sexy.
>>97867218No subhuman creature could ever hope to aspire to the beauty possessed by the fairer sex of the homo sapien species.
>>97858747>rightI really wish they would range ban every non-american ISP
>>97867230Nah, that shits fuckin' gay as hell.
This is me, I'm dwarf. My class is dwarf. My motivation is dwarf.
>>97857071>Fake and gay binary choice
>>97867293>liking women>gayThis is your brain on freakshit
>>97869037Whatever, fag.
>>97857071>Game allows you to be a human but with funny haircolour/skin colour/eye colour>Generic Tolkien Elfor>Ugly furry bait abomination / weird token insectoid raceYou're LUCKY if they even let you be a dwarf nowadays. And here I am still hoping for a game that lets me be a fucking normal gay human with fucking cat ears that's it. Is this really too much to ask for? Every single time I browse through the catalogue of a new rpg I find "BingBong'Xquilla" or some weird shit with insect eyes and triangle buttocks as the quirky fresh totally unique subversion of fantasy races. But if you don't wanna be that? Human. Elf. Brown Human.Jesus christ man.
