[QUOTE="RoughCoronet0, post: 8469010, member: 7031665"] Oh, I have quite a few favorites among the unusua races. I tend to like them better the the more human-like races personally. [B]Tortles. [/B]I love these turtle/tortoises people. I do tend to play them differently from their traditional lore however, making them more battle hardy and snappish (like snapping turtles). [B]Lizardfolk[/B]. You might start seeing a pattern, but I love reptiles so the Lizardfolk are of course a favorite of mine. I enjoy playing them as skilled hunters or as wild druids. [B]Yuan-ti.[/B] Snakes are my absolute favorite when it comes to reptiles and I often flavor my Yuan-ti as the abomination variant so they can be more snake-like. [B]Kobolds.[/B] My favorite little sorcerers, I enjoy their pluckiness and their strong sense of loyalty. [B]Gnolls.[/B] Another race I greatly like but often play differently, I tend to play them as fierce but wise nomads that stalk wild places to hunt. They often follows primal paths (Barbarian, Druid, Ranger). [B]Thri-kreen.[/B] I love these ant/mantis creatures as well, and one of my favorite characters I ever roleplayed as was a Thri-kreen Artificer. I also like flavoring them with Psionic-like feats, class features and spells. [B]Warforged.[/B] This is a fun race to play, and I enjoy coming up with creative ways to explain how the manifest their powers or features they gain as they level since they are technically constructs. [B]Kenku.[/B] I love these little mimics, they are just so cute and quirky. I also really like pairing them with classes/subclasses that give them options to fly so they can gain back one of the things that was taken from them. [B]Harengon.[/B] I don’t know what is is about these creatures but I just really like them as well. Some honorable mentions (though I have already listed a quite a few) are 4e’s Wilden and Shardmind, as well as Tieflings and Dragonborns (which I view as unusual despite being Core races) [/QUOTE]
