[QUOTE="pming, post: 7436384, member: 45197"] Hiya! LOL! Like always, I [I]don't care[/I]...so if some player wants to play that kind of elf, no skin off my teeth. Will it be "canon" in my game? No. At least not as a 'normal' option. If someone has a cool idea for a cool character where this sort of thing is important for some reason, sure, we can work with that... but by default "No, elves do not change sex like some frogs. Exceptions and mutations do occur...as mentioned in your book there, MToF*, and as defined in my campaign notes, here (hands The Campaign booklet to player)". IMNSHO, what someone thinks of themselves, or (in the case of these unusual elves) what sex they want to have between their legs is FAR less important (pretty much irrelevant...kinda like real life I guess) than your ability to avoid having your brain eaten by a mind flayer, your spleen devoured by a giant spider, or your liver nibbled on by a swarm of rats. ;) It's an interesting idea...why elves though? I mean, wouldn't it have been easier/better to just use some sort of, say "half-doppleganger" race? Where changing sex, blood type, body shape, etc makes more sense? Hmmm...."half-elf, half-doppleganger". Now THAT sounds interesting! "An interesting note about elves...they can breed with humans, and dopplegangers. Such offspring are called [whatever MToF calls them], and are even more prejudiced against than half-elves in elven society". Something like that would be interesting. *shrug* It's a thought anyway. [I]*I do not own MToF, so I'm guessing here. This is what it sounds like from what I've heard. Correct?[/I] ^_^ Paul L. Ming [/QUOTE]
