"Sometimes you might need to add a race that is not in the array available in the Players Handbook. This could be For many reasons. You might want to add Genasi to your roster of available races to match your themes of elemental power seeping in to your world from the Inner Planes, the Elemental Chaos, Jotunhiem, or the Eyrie.You might want to add Tabaxi and Leonin to emphasize the dangers of the wilds in your setting.Be careful when adding races to your roster of species available to players and also those unavailable two players. Racist feel more natural when they have a strong identity within your setting. Each addition should have an iconic story that drive them in your setting. Be wary of adding too many races that feel the same niche. Once you get past 3 races that furfill the same tropes either stop adding new races that have that same style or add to the included races traits that separates them from each other. If you include a race in your setting of your choice or requested by a player, one of you should decide how that race fits in the setting: they're placing the world, their relationship to one other race, and how they factor into dungoenering."That's advice I literally gave 2 real DMs. Was every nonPHB race included in the last DMG or did they give just an example?It better offer advice on creating feats if feats are core. Just like Race, Subrace, and Subclass the last time.Seriously.How low of a standard do we want for the DMG?I'm beginning to see why the DMG was done so late and rushed cuz it sounds like few care if the dang thing is any good.Why shouldn't the book be offering examples?Sea elf and Triton would be my examples of race and subrace like how Aasimar and Eladrin war before .It's not that hard. It doesn't take that much space.Why is so much hostility towards teaching new DMs in this community?There really is a string of "#$@& dem kids" dug deep in the D&D Zeitgeist.</blockquote>
