ok couldn't resist, so wrote up Dyson for use in your game. DYSON The Spherewright, Architect of Closed Systems Few beings inspire fear without cruelty, awe without worship, or obedience without command. Dyson is one of them. Across the Astral Sea, in infernal archives, celestial...

She's sprite from the Legend of Zelda cartoon, and she's Link's primary stalker. :D

could be worse could be this lovely lady who requires a restraining order. :D :p

Minotaur roles aren’t careers—they’re recognized ways of being useful. Capital Parkland - Part 10 - Coliseum District - Part 03 - Paths of Power Fixers. Scouts. Drivers. Rig Doctors. Guardians. Channelers. Rockers. Authority comes from competence under pressure, not volume. That’s why the...

one of these day...future character. :D

And I'm building a charming halfling rogue with an ungo (sasquatch) companion called Han Golow. :D

In the Hodgepocalypse, I built halfling culture around 1970's Trucker Culture, and it works far better than it had any right to be, complete with massive badass rigs. 8-)

I’m working on a 5e-adjacent setting and ended up building several Small PC species that fill the same niche as halflings/gnomes/goblins, but with a post-apocalyptic flavor. In alphabetical order: Beaverfolk — Lodge-based water engineers whose constructions reshape local ecology; currently...

I also really like Gnomes https://breadthofpopsanity.blogspot.com/2016/08/thoughts-about-gnomes.html so much that I did a rant a while back about them.

One thing I didn’t mention earlier, but probably should have: I really like kobolds. A big part of that comes from how long they’ve carried the dragon-adjacent identity in D&D. This isn’t a new invention—kobolds leaning into clever engineering, vertical spaces, and draconic problem-solving goes...

Quick curiosity question for the group. When you play Small-sized characters in (5e or previous versions), which ones do you actually like playing? Not asking about balance or optimization—just preference, vibe, and table experience. Here’s the rough “short folk” list I had in mind: Gnomes...
