[QUOTE="aco175, post: 8510733, member: 27385"] At what point would certain races eliminate other races that are in competition with them? Why are monsters- monsters? Mostly because they do not look like us or act like us. This leaves us with humans, elves, dwarves and halflings. Tieflings and Dragonborn likely would have been hunted to extinction. This is likely a 1e/2e position. In order to have races be equal, there should be enough to make them different and fill a role/need. Do we need a flying race, or another one? If you think yes, then add one. When your homebrew races are picked over the PHB ones, you have gone too far. I do not think there need to be more PHB races. 33 races in the new book as official is more than twice what I would think. We are doing away with ability score tweaks. We do not need a large, strong race or a smart race or a quick, small race. Everyone could be just variant human at this point. [/QUOTE]
