Is there a bigger red flag than people who talk about how much they hate elves?
Yeah, "people" who like the Dungeon Meshi anime.
>>98329697Emotional investment into elves in is a sign of poor mental health, regardless of whether that investment is positive or negative.I guess that what I'm trying to say is that you and the "I hate elves" types can both fuck right off.
Yeah, being OP.
People talking about how much they like them.
I miss the old grognards who like metal bikinis, arguing over elves versus dwarfs and bacon.Fentanyl and the troons got them and now every game store is just a polycule harme recruiting ground.
Seems I've struck a nerve with some of the real life analogs to sweaty dimmunitive fat hairy dwarves that peruse this board.
KILL THE ELVES
Elves became hated by the redditor types because they are a stand in for white people and became a target for leftist agitators as they started their long march through the media.
>>98329751The only person here who actually bothers to state the obvious
>>98329697Yeah, people who make ragebait threads to drive traffic on this dead site.
>>98329751Elves are far and away the most fagged up race in modern western fantasy ala Baldur's Gate/Dragon Age/etc.
>>98329751Retarded. Elves have been hated since before Reddit existed. I should know, because I've hated them since 1998.
Post more cute knife ears
/tg/ 15 years ago?
>>98329766They were viewed as the original mary sue race for try hard players
>>98329766How did you manage to hate them 14 years before you were born?
>>98329697Two things:People that only like elves because cute girls.And bad faith threads. This is inviting shitflinging and flame wars.Just make a positive thread about something (traditional games) elf related, talk about elf stuff in your games.I once recruited online for a WFRP campaign, and there was one player that wanted to join. His character was a dwarf that was taken by dark elf raiders, and somehow started to worship Khaine, and escaped by killing all the elves. Since then, he absolutely hated elves (but still was a Khaine-believer). I was advised by other players to not allow them into the group, saying that he was a teen with some severe issues
>>98329751>"The most homosexual race in all of fiction is a stand in for white people!"I don't think you want to go down that route noldorfag
>>98329795Do we even have gen alpha on this site?
Marcille is a miracle of the universe and deserves a human husband
>>98329887Everyone on /v/
>>98329697Biggest red flag are people who post useless bait threads like this when they're either a bot, a troll, or have never fucking played a game in their life.Go rub your fucking ears while you jerk off to a tree instead of playing with real people, you're too fucking stupid to make a character sheet on your own.
>>98329885>The most homosexual race in all of fictionDwarves?
>>98329787How far we've come (negatively)
>>98329898>We are dwarves, dwarvy dwarves>When in doubt, whip it out>Motivate that gyrocopter, gravitate that gyrocopter
>>98329894You seem like a really naladjusted individual bro, consider therapy. Or maybe just leave your cave and touch some grass (or a tree lol!)
>>98329919Tell us about your campaigns that made you come to the conclusion strated in the OP.
>>98329900Nothing changes, just the targets
>>98329697Generally it can be a red flag as people solely are repeating what they see in media ad nauseum. The question then after that is how likely they’re to accept different interpretations of dwarfs.I always found dwarfs without Scottish or uk accents in general a bit weird. So I might be a problem for something like fantasy accents.I do find it weird that dwarf women (beardless) aren’t seemingly as popular as waifu material as they should be.>>98329907I understood that reference and now I feel old.
>>98329697Rainbow flags and nose rings. Especially the septum rings, as it means it's going to be a drama club tourist not wanting to play but use everyone to react their tumblr AU fanfic.
>>98329919Shut up and post more Marcille, preferably with her clothes off
Elves should be an all female race.
>>98329946Fuck off, that's what he wants.Ask the larper about his games.
>>98329894Utterly based.>>98329751>t. coomspiracy brained latinx
>>98329937I hate how accurate this is. It is alarming really.That stuff is the modern Reddit fedora as it signifies the need or pseudo nerd is gonna be an annoyance to be around.What’s the male version of nose rings that miniature wargaming and tabletop ttrpg nerds tend to wear that quietly warns people that they’re gonna be a bad time to be around and not the fun kind?
OP is just a false-flag to make elf-fags look bad.It's working.
>>98329957>male version40gay anything
>>98329777She can cook and do necromancy and is probably neutral good. The only other pictures on my phone I cannot post.
>>98329970How about, instead of talking about that character, you talk about your games that made you come the conclusion stated in the OP?
>>98329898Tom of Finla.... the Lonely Mountain.
This is abuse of autists. The only thing y'all needed to do is not bite.
>>98329954>Fuck off, that's what he wants.That's what i want too nigga
>>98329946Post her in those bloomers
>>98329972 Elves are great Whether they are great Noble Houses, last scions of a dying race who are passing to the West. Sometimes helping, sometimes hindering Man. Fucking psychopaths - don't let them catch you in the shadows of the trees. And I think it's pretty obvious that Elric and Corum are just Elves with the numbers filed off. Last game I played, I played a Ranger. In game magic had been becoming less common (for reasons we were apparently supposed to find out about and act upon. At the first smidgen of XP for level 4 when the game imploded we hadn't found out diddly
>>98329739Metal bikinis is the most stupid trend in fantasy movies ever. You wanna show skin, use a piece of fabric.Imagine Conan going around half-naked with a metal loincloth. It's that ridiculous.
>>98329994Melnibnoneans are elves. Moorcock just avoided the term because he was desperately anti-Tolkien. They were described with pointy ears (and often depicted having them), magical ancient dimension-hopping people.
>>98329996He does?
>>98329994>>98330000Moorcock was a huge Poul Anderson fan, it's where he got the idea for Law and Chaos and expanded on it. And Anderson's Broken Sword was all about elves, and I don't think it's insane to say the cover art had an impact in how he would describe Elric. I think Moorcock would've jumped on the opportunity to tout Anderson's elves over Tolkien's.But yeah, Melniboneans are elves, they definitely are the prototypes for many dark elves too. I don't know enough about Corum, he's next on my reading list.
>>98329697>>98329740Fuck knife-ears.
>>98329763Or people who Take the bait, anon.
>>98329697You couldn't use a full blooded elf?
>>98329765no that would be tielfings and various furtoon races
>>98330084That's the plan
>>98329697That's just a 7th and 8th edition Fantasy trauma response.
>>98330084What a fucking weak attempt devoid of any spice and humor.
>>98330084>>98330219Girls, both of your armies are currently complete fucking garbage in Warhammer. Yes the one on the left is a dwarf.
>>98329751Elves are actually black now
>>98330265>warhammerWho the fuck was saying anything about warhammer?
>>98329697How was your latest session of traditional games affected by such people?
>>98330061>I don't know enough about Corum, he's next on my reading list.The books seem less popular than the Elric-stories, but I liked the Corum novels a lot. Particularly the second series.Was there ever a Corum-RPG or supplement made for Stormbringer?
>>98329697>>98329777>>98329919Cute half-breed mutt

>>98331017What are your experiences with players hating on elves being a red flag?
I liked dungeon meshi before it got a fotm anime
>>98331030It must be sad to have no real personality and base your existence exclusively on what other people are doing but i imagine that's how it works for most zoomers
>>98330267I can deal with that.
>>98329946
>>98330294>The books seem less popular than the Elric-stories, but I liked the Corum novels a lot. Particularly the second series.I know some elric haters who still like Corum>Was there ever a Corum-RPG or supplement made for Stormbringer?For Stormbringer 5th edition. I think there was a Hawkmoon one for stormbringer 2e too
>>98329697Easily: People who talk about "True D&D"
>>98329697I have a close friend who dislikes Elves solely because of the Elves in the Elder Scrolls games. To be fair to him, almost every elf I encountered in those games were giant assholes. Plus, the lore surrounding their societies make them seem really fucking psychotic.I personally like elves. If I can't play a human or I decide I don't want to play a human, I will usually pick Elf if they are available.
>>98331922>the lore surrounding their societies make them seem really fucking psychotic.That's what makes them good.
>>98331933True actually. Just to make it clear, my friend doesn't actually hate them, but he loves hating them I guess. There's a lot of banter mixed in.
I like elves I also like dorfsBut I absolutely love FAT DOGS
>>98330710lmao
Deedlit was originally played by a male player.
>>98333506And the original campaign ended when she(he) killed the other players and looted all their gear.
Short lived races are getting too uppity lately
>>98333441"What about Frieren?""Okay, all elves but Deedlit and Frieren."
>>98329697Nowadays, yes, but in the past, no.There used to be a zeitgeist of elves just being the OP race that's better than everyone else, so it get a well-deserved reputation as basically being an entire species of Mary Sue protagonists. This lead to a general negative sentiment towards them that was a valid reaction to how much they got glazed constantly in fiction in the 90s and 00s.Now that the era of cocksucking them constantly has ended, though. Their portrayal tends to be a bit more nuances and balanced. At the very least, there are legitimate cons depicted. So, now hating on them has become less warranted and the whole thing has devolved into basically being a dated redditor fad.
>>98334123100%They used to be the tamer tieflings, basically.
>>98334141Tieflings are definitely the valid hate target right now, yeah. Of course, it's only going to catch on with normies several years after the wind shifts.
>>98330267If you actually gave a shit about the integrity of Tolkien's lore, you wouldn't complain that she's black. You would complain that she's green.
>>98334150True, but tieflings don't have the tolkein weight behind them so I'll imagine they'll just be forgotten about. Plus there's a weird culture war subtext behind some of the love of tielflings so I'm not sure if it'll be the same exact process. Some of the dwarf love will probably follow the same arc because redditors got ahold of them and there's nothing more cringe than redditors.
>>98334123Elves are infinitely worse than tieflings were in their prime because Tieflings are the mary sue snowflake race exclusively in a DnD setting, you're never going to see a tiefling in an unrelated novelMeanwhile elves infested literally everything like parasitic fleas and you were guaranteed to be slapped in the face with the most cringe worthy, embarassing writing ever conceived by man every time they showed up, with Tieflings at least you know you can just avoid them cause they stay in their ghettos.
>>98329697It depends of the setting. The Elves are always lovable or hatable. They can't be normal like Humans or Dwarves
>>98333717What a whore(male)
>>98329697I don't hste elves. I love elves. It's not rape if its an elf.
>>98334196Elfwank is pretty much over now. You're getting old, living in the past. It was a big problem, like, 10 years ago. I get that media doesn't disappear immediately, but it's just not really a trend anymore in new stuff.You could point me to some examples, but I'm going to assume they're all 10+ years out of date or really innocuous.
>>98334046
>>98334625>Dire HalflingDamn that's a good one
>>98329697Post your ears
>>98329697Post your campaigns.
Elves symbolize human aspiration. The hope that someday we'll live in harmony with nature, have the leisure time to master the arts, and evolve into creatures who aren't so hairy, violent, and ugly. Glazing humans and dwarves feels like a surrender to our worst impulses and the banality of the world as it is. Looking at the the way we kill each other over resources and dedicate our lives to some evil corporation and saying "yep, this is it".
>>98334978It's like i'm looking at an even gayer Quentin
>>98335102He's right and you have no counter-argument.
>>98329697Having dogmatic opinions about any surface level aesthetic quality of fantasy is a massive red flag, it's on the same level as getting mad that someone has a different favourite colour.
>>98329697yes, people who somehow need to redesign dwarfs onto alien abominations
>>98329697/tg/ is going to hate me for speaking the truth:Hating Elves is nogames behavior.
Nobody really hates elves IRL. But as >>98329719 says, those obssesed with them to the point of making their personality around them deserve the bullying
>>98335581What about people that make their entire personality about bullying elves?
>>98329707i like the Dungeon Meshi anime, i read the manga, whats your fucking problem?
>>98336240They don't talk about their campaigns and the scenario that OP describes.
>>98329697Sure there are.From the very top of my head, no particular order after the first one:>Smokers>People who can't properly handle in- and out-of-character stuff>People who don't inform about being late when they already know they won't be on time>People bringing their mechanical wisdoms from [insert radically different game they played prior], thinking they apply to [radically different system at play]>People who get themselves hammered less than 1 hour into the game>People who keep repeating the same joke the whole session/campaign>People who keep asking stuff that's on a cheat-sheet right in front of them>People who think funny voice = roleplaying, especially when still playing self-insert>People who always get distracted by whatever is in GMs garnish, unable to tell what's important and what's just flavour
>>98334978>CalvinI think you have to be Catholic or high church Anglican to be a true Gentleman Gamer.

>>98336364Charlie Kirk did not go to heaven.He died in the funniest way possible and then went directly to hell.
>>98336510Seeing literally everything else in that pic are you honestly surprised?
>>98334046Eh, it's just normal for all the spoon ears. They'll tucker themselves out in couple of years/decades.
>>98332432He has returned!
>>98336938>pacifistsI mean, the whole post is some no-games garbage. But elves were always warlike.Even retardedd D&D elves start trained in swords and bows. Not because it's a nice hobby for them.
>>98336973i was going for a term synonymous with "treehugger" but it seemed retarded to describe elves as hippies would it satisfy your autism if i rephrased it as "the dying race of frail, wistful, environmentally-conscious individuals"
>>98337138the fact that half of istanbul is technically on another continent doesn't make you european, ahmed
>>98329697Yeah, people who talk about how much they love e*ves, g*blins, h*lflings, w*men, and other freakshit subhumans
>>98337391No way this dude is talking down on anybody while posting always sunny memes
>>98337391Of course he doesn't mention dwarves.
>>98337404Dwarves are acceptable
>>98329730Underrated post.
>>98330061Corum is equally doomed...his race fucked up by essentially savage Britons. Hawkmoon / the black Jewel / Count Brass. - but they are more LAW than CHAOS. Also Granbretan - the Great Britain is more Warhammer like with beast masked clans. The Vultures basically being Adeptus Mechanics.
>>98336799Fentanyl overdoses are no laughing matter
>>98329777>knife earsHer ears are a bit blunt (fat) to be called knives.
>>98337682Hawkmoon is too weird for me and I heard it's not Moorcock's best, writing wise
>>98337511>dwarf - axeHey, that's me, that's the character I always play.
>>98337802Butter knives are still knives
>>98337511Hypocrite.
>>98337511Neither is realBut how would you know, being a secondary
130 posts and I'm one of the few anons that actually shared his experiences with campaigns and players that hate elves.OP did not.
>>98330000Really enjoying these comics so far.
>>98334096"Legolas?""Well ofcourse Legolas, Legolas goes without saying. But aside from Deedlit, Frieren, and Legolas, we hate ALL elves.""Uhm, I'm quite fond of Midsummer Night's dream, actually."*Sigh* "Fine. So aside from Deedlit and Frieren en Legolas-""Oh! And Marcille!""ALRIGHT WHO SAID THAT!!?
>>98329697Tell us about your experiences based on your campaigns and games.
>>98343686whats it like sperging out for like 3 days now and realizing that nobody has or is going to responded to you?
>>98344923So just admit it.Larper.

160 posts to go.
>>98348994
>>98331017>they made anon's choice woman intentionally infertileprobably had their reasons I guess
>>98333717Nope, that didn't happen.This seems to be related to part of the campaign described in the replays but morphed by retellings?Parn croaked against minotaur and Deedlit actually saved the party when she killed it (after equipping Parn's sword as that was the only +1, she didn't have one - also dwarf got knocked out and/or kept missing, basically job had to be finished by elf). The players then made various jabs and jokes a the expense of Parn's player including Deedlit player saying that maybe he'll keep or sell the sword.But then they went to town and had Parn raised from dead.BTW, they later gave Deedlit shield and she also used bow in the campaign, which was cool. Sod the "everyone has just their signature weapon and that's it" rules of anime.
