D&D Race Survivor -- FINAL ROUND

[Kae'Yoss]

Spell survivor might be too much though.

No kidding. We all know magic missile would make that one, anyway.

Seems the verdict is in. Most people want dwarves off whatever island you guys keep talking about. I wonder how well they can swim in their full plates.

The winner is Man, but not because he's the most popular, but because he's the least hated of all races.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Actually, it kind of explains the whole "humans are the dominant race" thing. All the other races manage to annoy some god enough that they get stomped on occasionally, but humans are bland enough to get ignored.

Finally, the dwarves cannot hide behind aeons-old hatred aimed at other races. Everyone with one or more of the words "stone", "iron (or other metal)", "axe (or maybe hammer, if you find a progressive one)", or "beard" in their names: Please take your seat on yonder boats. And never mind that the seats look like kegs of smoke powder, that's just decoration. And for those who are the last surviving members of their clans: Reunion's ahead.

Gold gold gold gold.........

And, unfortunately, why the humans will win.

Keep givin' stumpy the short end of the stick!

-- N, supporting "men" since the noble PENGUIN was not represented!

I'm thinking about waiting about a week and doing a "Meta-Survivor"

Everyone will get to vote off a potential survivor thread...

Actually, I think the best would be to wait a week and then just do a straight poll, maybe multiple vote.

Spells? Not too bad, if you choose one class, and one level... like 2nd level Druid Spell Survivor.

I'm really thinking about:

Class Survivor
Skill Survivor
Alignment Survivor
Weapon Survivor
Armor Survivor
Non-Magic Gear Survivor (Like 10'poles vs. sealing wax vs. torches)

Any other ideas?

How about we vote off a poster every week?

-- N

 

[Gez]

As predicted, dwarves will be voted off.





Which will leave us with Humans as the Ultimate Fantasy Race. Yeah.

Hey, you cannot do this to diaglo ;-)

 

[Bront]

Boo on humans! So dull, so non-fantasy. For once, can't humans be the race in decline in a setting?

Demiurge out.

I had a world where the humans had been eradicated by the other races because their king irked evey other racial king by killing all their first borns/high advisors. It was kind of fun.
