I’m not sure what either needed in terms of fleshing out?4e did its level best with skill challenges and rituals. It just never fully committed to fleshing either out.
Except that…and elf is still and elf, and they’ve always just been a few special rules. That’s…all anything is (mechanically) in D&D.No, for that they had to.
Generalize Height and Weight to 'Human Like.'
Declare canon void.
Specify that language isn't tied to race.
Elf (and everything else) is a few special rules. Coming, to a new Monster book replacing Volos and MtoF, soon.
Rabbit people having the same weight range and lifespan as humans is, at worst, a bit boring.
Elves still live for centuries, don’t sleep, and are resistant to charm.
Sure it is. I have a broody jock longsword fighting Paladin halfling. He’s very against type. The type still exists.I think we need at least a default, perhaps even a minor penalty for using Tasha's options. Then again, I like playing against type which isn't really a thing any more if the option is in play.
Tell ya what. If elves don’t live for centuries, not sleep, and have resistence to charm effects, in the 2024 anniversary books, I will Venmo you $20.It's the way they're doing it. They're purposefully removing differences between races.
