[QUOTE="Mind of tempest, post: 8688007, member: 7029233"] the problem is I end up with gnomes/halflings, which I also wanted to avoid. metally I was going for hyper pragmatic in how they go about any goal [I]as opposed to the why[/I], so if they wanted to kill you they would do it in the easiest way available to them, they have utterly alien ideas on what to do with the dead they would not eat there own but would seek to gain whatever use is left assuming they can't resurrect them so skinning is not out the question. I see a much more brute force approach to combat, well trained but will solve it with a no-frills approach and utterly willing to do anything to win if that means dishonourable tactics then yes if honourable ways will do just as well or get something else they will use them instead. your classic loves magic/psionic and is to some degree spiritual hence how do you avoid accidentally making something that is an elf with a cooler look. people did elves as plants at one point, plus dryads and treants are elf friends so it would likely just get lumped in with them. the star frontier races are not to my spec plus we are getting them with spell jammer so I can just wait. space orcs are just Klingons or things who are angry and brutish, I do not even know what a space kobold would even be like and space dwarves have been done. turns out the mobile a thing is the more it trends towards bilateral symmetry, explaining sea pigs which is a relative of the starfish.
