Spermicides and 'aphrodisiacs' and flavorings notwithstanding... a condom is like a balloon. A penis-shaped balloon. Do you really want to be carrying around drinking water in a balloon? It'd pop easily, not hold much, and opening it carefully to drink it would be a hassle... If you want to be...

Whoa, those are some dangerous suggestions! In a zombie apocalypse you are going to need protein to build/repair muscle from all of the exertion that will be necessary, as well as healing from any wounds. And it is immensely difficult to get enough protein from a vegan diet based only on what...

Well, we'd have to define our terms. 'Evolution' can mean anything as small as adaptation through natural selection, all the way up to abiogenesis and all of the resorting biodiversity diverging from the first life form, depending on the person using it. A lot of settings with intelligent...

I thought it funny. We're creating fantasy races, survival of the fittest, the strongest race survives. Whittle out the inferior races, race war now! I got your humor and I enjoyed it! (> :D )

I don't know! I think so, though. I have the third ed. pdf but haven't got around to reading it much yet. I looove the Exalted setting but the rules are just atrocious. (BP) If I was to run an Exalted game I would use a home-brewed custom rule set. (^U^)

Right, I quoted you but I wasn't specifically replying to just you, more just that sentiment expressed in general. As I said earlier, I wholeheartedly agree with your outlook on the matter. By the way, for anyone looking for an interesting portrayal of elves, I recommend taking a look at the...

Also I want to say that... I really feel like those of you against elves are doing so out of a bit of a flawed understanding. In most settings, elves aren't actually better than the rest in every way. They may seem like it at first and most importantly they may be played like it by unskilled...

Yeah but you're still creating them! Creationists 1, Evolutionists 0! Check mate Evolutionists (B') (> :D ) (Also someone just discovered the smilies here (>BD))

Fantasy settings rarely include evolution. The races are almost always created by some sort of god, gods, titan, titans, or other higher power- in this case, us.

I have been called a hundred names and will be called a thousand more before the world goes dim and cold. Escape will make me God.

Hear, hear! That's a fantastic attitude. :3

That doesn't disprove what I said nor does it address the point that I raised.

That's not true of every setting. It sounds more like you have a problem with the way some settings have portrayed elves, than with the concept of an elf race itself. Which is a bit silly considering that this is a world-building activity wherein you could take it upon yourself to create a race...

Thank ya! :3

Okay now I can. PM incoming. EDIT: Apparently I have to wait 30 minutes for the permissions to update. -_-

I can't yet PM... because of this site's weird rules.

Thanks for the reply! I would be interested in playing one if they appear generally-human-but-larger, rather than something along the lines of Skyrim's rendition of giants as more... brutish. Almost animalistic.

Ooh, it's refreshing to see someone writing a fantasy RP post in an appropriate tone. Too often have I seen use of painfully modern colloquialisms in something ostensibly medieval in atmosphere. That was a great intro! Hmm, I'm interested in possibly playing a giant! What are giants like in...

That is pretty tall for a female! That puts you in the 90th percentile according to the CDC: https://www.cdc.gov/growthcharts/data/set2clinical/cj41c072.pdf Granted that's 16 years ago but I don't think average height changes as fast as the value of the US dollar, for instance!

Here's my zombie plan: Live out in the country, on 23.5 acres of land, with chickens and vegetables and fruit trees (and soon to be sheep as well). Have plenty of guns and ammo and swords and machetes. The zombie density will be so low and easy to deal with, I'm more worried about raiders and...
