    Call a dwarf a slur, he’ll laugh and say “good one!”

    Call an elf a slur and he’ll hold a grudge for 150 years

    (Disclaimer: don’t call anyone slurs)

      I feel like the dwarf would start calling _you_slurs and would be getting proper firey and the elf wouldn’t care, not because they’re enlightened or anything, but because they don’t see you as a person and therefore don’t care about your opinion.

      Call a dwarf a slur and he’ll write it down in the Book of Grudges and he and his kin will hold it against you and yours until the grudge is settled.

    I hate elves. What do you mean they live forever AND they need less sleep? They are double dipping on bonus time.

        Ive never seen a satisfying lore reason why elves dont dominate everything everywhere all the time. They should be the smartest and strongest, probably having a low birth rate while they enjoy a long life. And yet, in mtg, elves are a dime a dozen 1/1s. Why are there a million untrained elves?

          Drow in the Drizzt series are at least constantly killing each other, which justifies it somewhat

            I think a lot of DnD players forget that there are whole planes/divine realms filled with nothing but elves tbh. I don’t think dwarves have one (planes they presumably get allowed into Moradin’s realm). Seems a little unfair.

    How is it hypocracy? She treats the guy who tells the truth well and the liar badly.
