No, you’re not understanding. There is nothing saying, RAW, you can’t play as a gnoll. The RAW is that you can’t choose a gnoll as your race - but in the case of being polymorphed into one, you didn’t choose that, you were changed into one. And the RAW for that is to assume that everything works the same as before, barring what is explicitly said in the spell for that transformation. And once again, nothing in the spell says you stop playing as a character who is transformed, regardless of if the transformation is “playable” or not. There is not even a “playable” tag for anything, anywhere, in RAW.

You are the thing this post is making fun of.

They’re saying in this case, seemingly, he was born male, but a trans femboy can exist.

But nothing explicitly states that you stop playing as the character you were playing as if they were transformed, whether into a playable character option or not. There is no rule saying that that character is playable, but there is no rule saying you can’t play as them. Again, spells do what they say they do.

I mean, if a friend bit you would it not cause some aff-Oh, just friends, not roommates…hm…

The target’s game statistics, including mental ability scores, are replaced by the statistics of the new form. It retains its alignment and personality.

OP could’ve just repeated “spells do what they say they do.” It doesn’t say you lose control of your character in the new form, all it says about the new form and how that affects the character is…well, that line(plus a few other things about the gear they were wearing and whatnot).

The argument here should be “yes,” as arguing according to the rules is arguing in bad faith. That’s the point of the post lel.

Was born close to the 90’s, have a similar freckle much closer to the wrist. Is the late 2010’s mark on the hand instead?

Rocket Race in my ass.

Casting a spell and holding it uses visible components the hobgoblin could react to.

I’d think it’d take at least an arcana check to know that the spell you’re holding is Jump. So yeah, he could react, but would he necessarily be able to react in time to stop you from casting the spell? Not to mention, if he reacts just barely not in time and jumps haphazardly, one could argue the Wizard jumped farther and therefore wins.

Y-you…you do realize the lich, as liches generally work this way, was probably once human, right? And is choosing to believe all life must be quelled? Like…that’s an example of an irredeemably evil person who is actively choosing to be irredeemably evil. Moron.

What exactly does this mean? If you’re ignoring remove curse it’s because being able to remove a curse with just a spell is boring - the point of a curse in fiction is to be a challenge to remove.

Well, jeez. Didn’t mean to spark something. Just for the record - I also dislike D&D. Currently trying to move away from it with a Fallout campaign I got going.

I know you said it was only your opinion, but here’s something someone else has said.

I wasn’t expecting anyone to understand without context(you can just find the context if you’re curious), and I’m not chronically online for being saddened by something horrible happening to someone I, in some way, idolize. Also, this isn’t internet drama, it’s a person being harassed and cyberbullied out of their career.

Technically for the story in that skit, though, the race of the other party was relevant. The mention of “you know how I like a little asian” provides relevancy to the fact that they’re asian(and probably also to the other man being black), because it’s a story about a sexual encounter with them. Nothing wrong with having a type.
