I am afair anybody doesn't like neither Tokien nor Shaskepeare because..... how to say it softly? Maybe those would be fans of different sport teams.If Tolkien wasn't a very big influence on D&D creators he has been for lots of players. Dwarfs have been popular because they were like a mixture of vikings and knights of the round table but with Sancho Panza's bodies. And elves are closest to ideal to human perfection but with lower strongh. Too perfect and they become boring and annoying Mary Sue/Gary Stu.Tielflings were the Rose Mary's children, tainted because their ancestors were members of a evil cult or grandma asked help to the wrong cunning folk. Dragonborns were the product of spellcasters trying to create the perfect soldier. When you really like something and want to add you to your game, then you don't respect the canon. Any excuse will work. Maybe there rare in the past times, but after they started to marry and repopulate. Dragonborns are like wearing a superhero or kaiju costume in Halloween. The are in the perfect middle between misunderstood and majestic mythological creature, too strange for the usual humanoids, too honorable to be a simple monster. Dragonborns are like totem warriors, as power rangers without armours.</blockquote>
