Ok, did fave warhammer 40k race earlier, so, heres the one for D&D and forgotten realms, which are both owned by the same company.

Go ithillids!

Tieflings W00T halfdemons
edit:didn't see the poll whoops, half Elf than W00T basterd races.

remeber i only have 10 spots!

Lawyers, of course. :D

someone voted for half elf in the first three votes? thats, random/scary/strange

Go ithillids!

I thought it was illithids? Hm... no, maybe you're right. I dunno. All I know is that in Baldur's Gate II, they are the most horribly evil things to EVER have to fight.

And... I voted dark elves because, um... monkeys. Yeah, that's right. Monkeys.

you voted for dark elves because of, monkeys?

FYI, FR is part of DnD.

Damn, that was a high acronym to word ratio.

My favorite race is the Aasimon, solely because of DiTerlizzi's artwork in the PS MCII.

Precisely.

Yep. It's Illithids. Otherwise, the abbrevation of the Flayers' name would be 'thids.

Either Illithid or Humans (specifically Thayan).

Fraggles. And don't go telling me they're not a D&D race, you just haven't been playing it right.

Whats wrong with Half Elves?

didnt think many people liked half-elves

i only play half elves, and tieflings are 1/5th demon not 1/2

close enough

tied for me.
Half-elf\dark elf\elf.

Guess I'm a sucker for Pointy Ears.

oh and the actual half demon is called a Fey'rii

GNOMES!!!

All hail Lantan!

oh i play half elves not cause i like point ears so much as i myself am a mutt lol
and its a big difference tieflings really just smell bad, have bad breath maybe an ugly tail that sort of thing, they arent really that spectacular, but a fey'rii well they got experience adjustment +4 lol so that says it all, oh and half of them have wings. personally i hate playing power races like half dragons half celestials..its kind of lame lol i play humes and half elvaan

oh and the actual half demon is called a Fey'rii
I thought those were just the elven half demons? If thats not the case what are those called out of curiousity?

oh and the actual half demon is called a Fey'rii
A Fey'ri is simply a elf tiefling. It is not a half-fiend.

same thing a Fey'rii is the general term, its not like Baelnorn in other worlds then Toril its called a half fiend [except greyhawk i dont know that one its beento long[

Fey'ri is not a general term. It is a very specific term for a tiefling born from the mixture of elven (Gold Elf, IIRC) and tanar'ri blood, several generation down the line.

Well in the monsterous manual i have they call it a half fiend then they have names and one is Fey'rii they were very clear to in the hellgate keep entry too that it was populated by sun elf tieflings and Fey'rii so there is a difference i just looked it up

Which manual is that?

Edit: Fey'ri are a very specific type of tiefling.

I've only really ever played the computer versions, although I have read through/bought a few of the rule books when a friend and I were trying to convince our gaming group to try D&D in addition to the new version of WHFRP. I really just liked the background of the half breed races provided in the Races guide, escpecially the physicall characteristic changes they allowed. Glowing eyes and fangs = cool! ;)

Yeah, thats what I thought they were acording to the Races of Fouroune(sp) book.

oh manual is forgotten realms main book, and forgotten realms MMC 2 but the main info where it distinguishes is in the Hellgate keep entry in the high forest chapter of the main forgotten realms rule book, it distinguishes and i believe it even has the kit at the back of the book, with the shade kit, and me i love the computer games, i only play them now if i want to play D&D lol

well its level adjustment on a Fey'rii is two so that may be a 1/3rd demon but it is definetly more demon then a Teifling otherwise no distinction would be made lol

Well in the monsterous manual i have they call it a half fiend then they have names and one is Fey'rii they were very clear to in the hellgate keep entry too that it was populated by sun elf tieflings and Fey'rii so there is a difference i just looked it up

What edition? That could explain it. I know in 3 and 3.5 Fey'rii are sun elf tieflings, and half-fiends are themselves.

Mon the Drow!

i am not even sure now lol all i know is they were very clear to say Fey'rii and tiefling as distinct members of house dlardragreth in hellgate keeps ruins

well its level adjustment on a Fey'rii is two so that may be a 1/3rd demon but it is definetly more demon then a Teifling otherwise no distinction would be made lol

Also tieflings are all humans . If its a "sun elf tiefling" its a Fey'rii. If its an "orc tiefling" its a tanarukk. If its a "halfling tiefling" its a wispling. If its a "dwarf tiefling" its something else that I forgot.

At least in 3 and 3.5.

Gotta love the dwarves. Grey, Gold, Shield, Wild, even 'em urdunnir dwarves. Personally, though, I gotta go with the arctic dwarves. They're a real man's small subrace.

What edition? That could explain it. I know in 3 and 3.5 Fey'rii are sun elf tieflings, and half-fiends are themselves.They're essentially tieflings but instead of having human ancestry mixed with fiends, it's elven and according to my son's Monster Manual...what the is he reading?

In a campaign that begins before epic, I go drow almost every time. Just a fan.

*snickers* carefull... they have sourcebooks out that you might not want him reading...

Book of Ultimate Darkness and they also have one for Romantic encounters.

Centaurs, silly.

why is the "What's New with Phil and Dixie - Sex and D&D" popping into my head?


Panel one:
"Centars perfere their own, due to their preference for strength, speed and stammina..."
a beautiful Female Centar: "ahhh.... nothing like a 10 mile run to put one in the mood for some all night Sex."
the panting and obviously exhausted human:"Help!"

Panel Two:
"...But are willing to try different things."
A Muscular Centar Male, straining with a hammer.
A Beautiful Human woman in the bed... obviously undressed: "if it's going to be that much trouble, you can wear your shoes in bed."

hmmm... thinking about it... I think my Favorite species is the What's New Dragon.
