Thoughts on tieflings?
>>98589370*Cambions
>>98589370The game I play don't have them so I don't really care.
In my experience they are only played by people unwilling to deal with the implications of being a literal demon person. No, people dont trust you. No, they dont give you benefit of the doubt. Any fantasy race that is just "people who look weird" is shit
>>98589370
>>98589370The vitriol is a forced, online meme that failed to pick up the traction that the desire to kill furries did but that's because the ones going on about killing furries were closeted faggots.The white male fighter is just the inverse of the tiefling for the sake of contrarianism.
>>98589370I feel like they have become shorthand for a character that you want to be different from society, but not in any meaningful way such as having a radical ideology, so you're just a dude that's pastel purple and no one cares.
>>98589370Great concept for a PC wanting to play on relatively hard mode since, in theory, you're going to be treated with distrust if not outright hostility by most neutral and good parts of society. Got turned into theatre kid bullshit
>>98589370Nothing wrong with the race but players picking thieflings are red flags. I ban thieflings and if anyone complains, that means they are a thiefling player and I don't need them on my table.>>98589618>The vitriol is a forced, online memeFound the thiefling player
>>98589370They can be cool, but people fundamentally don't understand them and thus make them cringe anime protagonist, way too connected the lower planes than tieflings actually are.
>>98589506>literal demon person.They're literally not fiends and literally have been nominally devils since before you were born
>>98589618Look here, you stupid fucking piece of cum-soaked faggot SHIT.You're 99% correct, and 99% of the hate is just stupid proxy-politics faggotry or other forms of forced hate from the kind of dickless guys who are too scared to say what they really want to say, but that 1%, that 1% of hatred towards post-4e tieflings you might encounter is genuine and real AND 100% JUSTIFIED.The fuckers look like bargain-bin Dranei, who were already discount demons from one of the ugliest and worst-designed video games. 5e may have helped slightly fix their fugly-ass cromagnon-sloped-brow horns, but they're still a significant downgrade both in terms of lore and appearance from 3e-and-prior tieflings and deserve a considerable mount of hatred, so much so that anyone who doesn't reject the hideous and retarded post-4e inspired designs of tieflings deserves to be dragged out into the street and violently raped by HIV-infected hobos before being torn apart by rabid dogs.Fucking gas ass retarded bullshit faggots they make me LIVID.
Does Tielfing sweat smell like sulfur?
>>98589787On a level, I don't disagree with you.One thing I hate about D&D is how it fails to take advantage of the very lore it makes and often reinvents the wheel in its entirety with every edition.I actually hate that the Tiefling is a separate thing and not just grouped into "planetouched" and the same will be said of Aasimar. We had the Cambion who are essentially Tieflings who realized the fullness of their demonic/devil nature so you'd think it would be a cool little wrap around to have it so PC'able Tieflings are failed Cambion.You even have inbuilt reasons to have Tieflings that can go whatever way you want; Want to stay evil and have it so you're trying to climb the ranks in spite of your lower metaphysical status? Or maybe you turn away because fuck your demon/devil family.But such is the case of Wizards and any idea of over-arching continuity.
>>98589370They're better when they're less like "modern California man with body mods" and more like Hellboy.Ignore the point and bitch about >capeshit, though, like I know you will.
>>98589370I think that most people that see themselves as tieflings are actually much closer to goblins both physically and spiritually. Degenerate mutants, not misunderstood outcaste.
I dont personally have a problem with letting trans women play DnD but the almost complete overlap between trans women and telling characters should be studied
>>98589370>Thoughts on tieflings?I don't like um'. If I could crudely surmise my reasoning: they're fucking lame (boring, safe horny, safe satanism), they attract quirky chungus reddit mental phenotypes, they drew attention away from other *goat-demon-people like satyrs/faun/naiads/maenids, their aesthetic is always this rancid deviant art OC with very few exceptions, and as they've become more mainstream they've even become somehow "less" interesting by constantly trying to "erm aschtuely" their way from their demonic origins. *It's also particularly egregious because Satyrs are such a better stand-in for what they """""actually""""" want which is a Draenei-look-alike.
>>98589370they make prime material for people who do not play games to get mad because of political culture war reasons at imaginary players who do not exist while getting mad that some facet of their background (the setting in question is never mentioned) is either ignored (it probably doesnt exist in said setting) or played wrong (because they have their very narrow strawman version of what tieflings are)
>>98589370They're fine, chuds have an issue with them because of strawmanned stereotypes mostly grown out of the fact that most new players play tieflings because they're edgy and safely exotic.They're like the shadow the hedgehog of racial choice.If tieflings didn't exist they'd just have heterochromia or be half-dragons or whatever.
I fucking hate them as they symbolize WotC going woke. Literally demonspawn being seen as "not anymore dangerous than a normal person" bullshit. Fuck anyone who includes them in their games unless it's a game about genociding them.
>>98589370"we have draenei at home"
>>98589778and yet his post contributed more to the discussion at hand than your time-wasting pedantics
>>98591986
>>98592493No it didn't
>>98592503it certainly did, now shoo
>>98592508It certainly did not because it was just meme nonsense he pulled out of his ass.
>>98592525back to plebbit now. you don't blend
>>98592537I accept your concession.
>>98592545i accept your concession
>>98592550Shame, I accepted yours first.
>>98592559and it was superseded by mine
>>98592567Unfortunately it was not, as you had no point to concede to.
>>98592601the point you conceded to was contained in my first post
>>98592604Your first post that was bullshit pulled out of your ass or the post where you claimed that contributed anything? Both were equally pointless.
Get a room, you two.
>>98591966"Tieflings are just people who can be good or evil like anyone else" goes back to Planescape, you absolute chud.
>>98592612it's time to go back to r/dilation
>>98589370Should have random appearance table just like back in Planescape.
>>98592689Yeah I thought so, I once again accept your concession.
>>98592732you are seething because i correctly called you out from word one lmfao
>>98592743You called me out on correctly identifying what a tiefling actually is?
>>98592786i called you out on being a time wasting pedantic pissant which you've now spent the entire thread proving
>>98592818Someone who spends over an hour on a worthless "no u" back and forth doesn't get to cry about time wasting.
>>98592818Sorry, telling you what a tiefling actually is is not time wasting or pedantic. Seething that your nogames fanfiction idea of what a tiefling is on the other hand is.
>>98592871>>98592874no reason to samefag over it, at least be less obvious when you use the pass
>>98592879Today is not your day
>>98592895>edited the html>only one replyyou really dont think these obvious ruses through very well do you
>>98592895>Photon
>>98592910No one's going through that effort for you shizokun.
>>98592924it was common for years before you arrived and you even left a blank space in the link
>>98592929There is no blank space schizokun.
>>98592936you should delete that pic then since it shows the blank space in the post link
>>98592940It does not schizokun.
>>98592945you know anyone in the thread can just look at it right?
>>98592975Everyone but you apparently.
>>98592993where is your poster friend to chime in with his screencap btw? just a samefag huh?
how much are you getting paid to post here? We should form a union for better pay.
>>98592999I don't know that anon schizokun, I can't tell you where he is. I can tell you our two comments aren't a minute apart though.
>>98593030everyone here knows how a pass works, you included since you have one
>>98593043I'd never spend money on an image board schizokun.
>>98593073you already did
>>98593086I think there's even an add for it in the background.
>>98593110Yeah there was.
>>98593110>>98593119you would have to be schizo to think this proves you weren't very obviously samefagging
>>98593189>Comments were less than a minute apart >Post timer>Ad for the passHow exactly do you square the circle schizokun?
>>98593270it would be trivial to take that screencap in an incognito window of chrome
>>98593288But it's clearly not schizokun.
>>98593321there would be no indication either way
>>98593348I disagree.
>>98593364you left the blank space in the links again
>>98592670Planescape is shit in the first place.
>>98593373Not this again schizokun.
>>98593401i accept your concession
>>98593412See >>98592601 schizokun.
>>98593499concession accepted
>>98593531Yes schizokun I've already accepted your concessions more than enough
>>98593681>no uanother concession, gratefully accepted
>>98593688>another concession, gratefully acceptedBy me, from you.
>>98593771that's right, by me from you
>>98593793No need to mindlessly imitate schizokun, I've already accept your concession, no need to throw away what's left of your dignity.
>>98593811i cant believe how easy it is to agitate you. settle down little guy
>>98593818>i cant believe how easy it is to agitate you. settle down little guyI've already accepted your concession over an hour ago schizokun, you don't have to do this.
>>98593847shh, just relax. take a deep breath
>>98593900Is that your coping mechanism?
>>98593972i've been told it works by the people i agitate
>>98594046Unfortunately for you, I don't have any advice for people I agitate.
