Or any gith.These are not sudden amazing revelations. It's much more "...wait, why are these human-shaped, human-behaving, mortal, otherwise ordinary beings somehow 'not human'?"I mean, I'm right there with you. If they were going to change anything, why not dragonborn? Y'know, the ones that actually ARE different from all other humanoids in a few pretty obvious ways...Or aasimar/tieflings/genasi/planetouched. Or...yeah. I could come up with a lot more examples. But I've already been asked not to make an argument spill over from another thread, so I'll stop there.Zero 5e DMs I have ever had--literally actually zero--would allow the spell to work if it specified humanoids and you targeted it at a fey or an aberration or an undead etc., etc. The vast majority would actively check for such things, if relevant.Given how absolutely, profoundly DM-dependent 5e is, no, I don't think this is "mountains out of molehills." Even good 5e DMs would--and have!--done this in my experience.</blockquote>
