[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 8695597, member: 6801228"] Every player character in the game is a bad-ass. It is a bit weird to constantly try and say "but no one expects ME to be a bad-ass". Of course they do. Look, why is a halfling not a badass? Because they are small, right? No one expects small creatures to be dangerous. Well, except goblins. They are vicious and able to wipe out a town, and they are small. And Kobolds, incredibly dangerous depsite being small. Plus you can't discount gnomes, because magic makes even a small creature dangerous, and kobolds and goblins are also known for having spellcasters And fairies and Pixies can be quite dangerous despite being tiny. Derro are small and super dangerous. There are also devils and demons that are small. Mephits are small or tiny, those things are incredibly dangerous. Can't forget many tiny creatures like stirges are incredibly dangerous, despite being very small. ectectectectectectectect And, of course, this is a world where adventurers exist, and halfling adventurers are known. I mean, Mordenkainen's states that halfling retired adventurers come back to their homes. Mearls even talked about those adventurers leaving powerful magic items behind to defend their homes. So... why would anyone look at a halfling in leather armor, carrying a well-used weapon, and standing beside a group of adventurers and think "Well, I never expected to see a halfling adventurer, those don't really exist. I mean, halflings aren't badasses like every other race in the entire world." Of course they've heard of halfling adventurers before! [/QUOTE]
