D&D General Nolzur creates inclusive miniatures, people can't handle it.

I think I've found like two minis for overweight people to paint over the years. Always NPCs of course.

You can find a little more body diversity in minis made by individual artists on places like etsy than you can from the bigger brands, but it’s still very slim pickings.

I disagree about the "in general" part.

Not sure what there is to disagree about. These folks decided to mock inclusion. How is that NOT being anti-inclusionary?

All it takes is a little imagination to make a wheelchair work in whatever environment you can imagine. This is a fantasy game. Why not direct a bit of the fantasy and a bit of imagination into making the wheelchair work instead of coming up with reasons why it can't?

A bit more expensive, but a good option if budget allows.

I was under the impression that your "in general? no" was shorthand for "in general, verisimilitude-based objections to magic wheelchairs are not presumed to be a pretext for hateful and anti-inclusive behavior." If that's not what you meant, then nevermind.

Wheels are terrible on anything but flat, even terrain. Rubble, stairs, a rope bridge, a steep slope, etc- adventure sites often involve terrain that makes a wheel chair seem pretty useless.

And giants wouldn’t be able to support their own body weight. We excuse all kinds of unrealistic things in the name of fantasy, it’s worth critically examining why this particular unrealistic thing is a sticking point.

Yeah I guess ordering the actual model is really pricy. I'm lucky and have a resin printer so I just need the 3d file which is far cheaper.

Verisimilitude-based objections to magic wheelchairs aren’t necessarily a pretext for active anti-disabled sentiment. But, as per my post above, it’s worth critically examining why this specific thing is a verisimilitude problem when so many other physically impossible things in fantasy aren’t. We all have unconscious biases, it’s just a healthy practice to interrogate them in ourselves.

In my experience, most people don't seem to examine that possibility.

I agree with the general spirit of what you're saying here, but I think that hits closer to home than you realize, insofar as there seems to be some assumptions being made with the nature of objections with regard to verisimilitude.
