I never would suggest that other people from other tables were portraying non-humans wrong. I have no experience with anyone other than those at my table (at least not since 1986), so I have no idea how anyone else runs their characters to make any kind of judgements. I would never say other people are doing it wrong in any aspect of the game, and I don't know why you're suggesting that I am.None of my elves worship human gods, nor do they share whom they worship with any non-elves (in fact my elves don't worship gods at all, rather they worship magic as a force of nature). Aside from sharing the same continent, there is little commonality between humans and non-humans in all of my worlds. Again, those are my worlds, I don't know yours or anyone else's, thus I can't/won't judge others' games. My elves of my current worlds were heavily influenced by the 'sidhelien' elves of the Birthright campaign setting.And I agree with Celebrim, non-humans are equivalent to aliens. Only not being from another world is the only instance that doesn't apply, in every other way, they are their own and do not reflect/share with humans in values, beliefs, concepts in any way whatsoever (and the same is true for most other non-human races.)</blockquote>
