[QUOTE="Set, post: 4374404, member: 41584"] I blame the Complete Elves Handbook as well. I was a huge elf fanboi until I read that, with stuff about human bards falling into despair, and never playing music again and wanting to deafen themselves after hearing elves (not elven bards, just any old elf-on-the-street) singing at a funeral or something, because they'd never hear anything that speshul again. While I'm sure there wasn't a rule for it, the book definitely conveyed the impression that elf poop didn't stink, and indeed, magically helped grow forests and smelled lemony-fresh! Reading that book made me look at my former elf-loving self with the sort of dubious 'I'm embarassed for you' look that I would give a furry erotica enthusiast. The Complete *Dwarves* Handbook, on other hand, freaking *rocked.* I never cared at all for Dwarves before reading that book. Battleragers? Awesome. My dorkhood remains intact, even after falling out of love with elves. :) [/QUOTE]
