Drow matriarchs be like:
I feel like:
- No race should have alignment locking in any direction, because people are people and can do whatever they want. Our goodness or badness isn't determined by our genes.
- But, people are who they are because of the society they grow up in and how people treat them. If humans treat goblins like shit because they're goblins, and a goblin turns into a big bad because they want to kill the humans that slaughtered their village, then that villain is interesting for reasons tied to their species.
"No villain in D&D is interesting for reasons tied to their species" sounds very dangerously close to "I'm race-blind" in terms of not acknowledging that different people have different struggles, and racism is often a huge part of those struggles.
All I'm hearing is "So that means my character has to jack-o pose all the time!"
How is the appropriate answer not to just kill yourself because no matter what you do, you're going to be scaring someone just for existing?
I feel like a product of a bygone era that should just...not exist anymore. Existing as a 'good man' doesn't do any good.
Shouldn't the glock be pointed the other way if it's going to cause a coma?
