    Not mentioned in the song:
    Leonin (Spartans with Lion Heads)
    Satyr (Frat House members with Deer Features)
    Lineages (Less a race itself and moreso just I was born with a dark family tree)
    Owlin (Remember that one episode of Avatar?)
    Fairy (Pretty damn self explanitory)
    Harengon (Rabbit dudes)
    Grung (Poison Dart Frogs on Gremlin Mode)

      Not to mention that most of the existing ones got rebalanced pretty significantly for Monsters of the Multiverse and several races that were UA have been announced for the upcoming Spelljammer books. Specifically:
      Giff (All Hail the Space Hippo British Empire, wot wot!)
      Thri-Kreen (Four-Armed, Mantis Men from OUTER SPAAACE!!!)
      Plasmoids (That time I got reincarnated as a Slime)
      Hadozee (Return to Monke)
      Autognomes (What if Robots, but made by mad gnomish tinkers?)
      And I think they sorta announced one more due to the poor reception of the Autognome announcement:
      Glitchling (What if Robots, but ones that shouldn’t be sentient at all if it weren’t for a bug in their system…and just happened to look like Dreamworks Minions, but somehow even derpier-don’t worry, there’s lore reasons for it!)

      @@dungeonmaster3464 glitchlings would be better than autognomes, we need more Mechanus lore... And if they put some playable slaad would be fine to also expand the Limbo lore... (may be some statbloks for primus, secundus avatars of Order and Yggor or Ssesdam Slaad lords, even the white, grey and black slaad would be cool)

    • @dungeonmaster3464
      @dungeonmaster3464 2 роки тому

      @@argeorunter9009 Most slaad don't have the capacity to reason or argue, so in universe it would be difficult to justify a slaag cooperating with a party. From a mechanical standpoint, slaags that are grey or higher on the progression scale would be too powerful to be player races.
      Granted, the exception that makes me interested in your idea are gormeel slaags. They are born with a respect for the natural laws, so they're hunted by their brethren. Gormeel slaags form symbiotic relationships with Githzarai to protect themselves, so it's not hard to imagine them integrating themselves into a party.
      As for glitchlings, I agree with you that more extraplanar lore with be cool, and their traits would work well for a player race. The problem is that these are specifically races from the Spelljammer setting. Tinker gnomes are an important group, so they're getting representation.

      hippity hoppity, here comes a grung. poisonous, moist boi balls of fun. they can make poisoned arrows by touching their skin, but they need to soak in water or else they're done
      the owlin comes in any shape and size, like 20 foot wings big-ass eyes. they can fly through the air without making a sound, as if plain rogues didn't already make you cry
      There's leonin if having a mane is your thing, or even if you just can't wait to be king. You can roar to scare any creature shitless, but this ain't disney so no, you can;t sing
      Do you like puns? Harengon's for you. their jumps don't provoke opportunitu. hare trigger ads proficiency to rolls, but everything else is pretty much poo

      Everyone been sleeping on the Gnolls, man. Gnoll stats were in DM's Guide but suggested for enemies (5e really doing my Hyenas dirty by pushing them to be more baseline demonic) and they finally finally finally officially came out with legal PC Gnoll stats in a recent Eberron book.

      @@Raulgb5 Yeah, in one of my settings, dragonborn were literally just 3rd to 5th generation dragon-humanoid kin, one step below half-dragons. Once you start getting into 6th generation and lower, that's where you start getting into humanoids with potential for the draconic bloodline sorcery.

      THe Dragonborn Race started as enemies in early Dragonlance, and they were created via rituals on metallic Dragon eggs. There's a note about em in the 5e PHB. But back then, they were quite literally made from metallic dragon hatchlings.

      @gabrielgriffith7477 2 роки тому

      @@Raulgb5 That is certainly true but tbh if it's not Faerun it's really not as important to consider in terms of lore. This is due to Faerun being the main universe that 5e is centered in. Just to preface by the way this is still my opinion and it doesn't make yours any less valid.
