What Race do you dislike More?

[Indicterra]

Since most of us are familiar with fantasy novels is there any race you dislike particularly,

Goblins, orcs.... Vamp-...tentacle monster perhaps.

Are you giving me a place to vent my inner xenophobe? If so, wait a couple of hours, I will return with words full of hatered aimed at elves.

 

[Corty]

Le Mans. Boring.

Also, I really hate the standard, smug elf-types, the usual high-elf, we live forever, know-it-best variant.
I also hate the stubborn dwarf trope.
I also hate all cookie-cutter-based race attributes.

You know what?

 

[RepresentingWrath]

Nig- night elves, yes, that's what I was about to say.

 

[Rhaps]

I am Asian, I hate every races, competitively

?The dwarf in my story is initially stubborn, but then reveals his friendly side to the main character. He is always an up-tight stubborn person when you meet him, or he doesn't like you, when you get to know him, he is like a field of flowers.

I really felt like I needed to get this guilt off- my chest.

Hopefully i am not the target of your hatred. ?

Humans.

They are so complex that they either turn into purest of saints or basically scarier than the elder gods themselves.

At least other races can justify why some of their actions reasonable.

Humans?

They either be so xenophobic to other races or wanted to fuck everything that moves(sometimes even non-moving ones).

Wanted to unite everything peacefully or basically commit mass extinction of everything around them(even themselves just for shits and giggles).

Sometimes be the dumbest that a rock is smarter than them or even intelligent enough to trick a god(either doing complicated stuff for no reason to the simplest ideas that basically work).

The worst part? They are basically just a randomizer of every races that you'll question even how they are made(remember a DnD post about how the origin of humans came to be that gives more questions than answers of how they are made).

> Humans

Also, unlike the other races, it's cannibalism if you eat them.

I really, relate to your hatred to humans. finally someone who stands with me on this opinion.

 

[MasterY001]

My least favorite race?

Vulcans.

They made being boring cool.

 

[NotaNuffian]

Was going to say F1.

 

[JayMark]

We ought to dig a big hole, throw all them Dark Elves and Argonians in it, and let them tear each other to pieces

 

[Sola-sama]

Nig- night elves, yes, that's what I was about to say.

HE.... HE JUST LIKE ME FR FR

 

[rgv]

Elves, when they're the 'new and improved Human' version. Make something about them different other than 'more magical pretty humans with immortality' please. Like the reason they have pointy ears is because they're related to beastkin.

Well I guess it depends on where you are taking the question. Are you talking about which are the best fit for villains? Or which are harder to write about? Or which you just don't want in the story?

I really think goblins have amazing potential for villains. They are just awesome fodder! But I'd hate to be one or have a character in the 'team' be one. Some races are challenging to write about. For example, people are attracted to beautiful things, so dwarves are harder to write about. Because you are trying to have your writing overcome stigmas about both REAL dwarves AND fantasy dwarves being written so much as ugly or bad mannered. Some races also probably are overused... I've had readers tell me they think vampires are overused before. Shrug.

I am Asian, I hate every races, competitively

I'm white, we won. Sadly

I have a feeling the argonians would claw their way out of that pit even stronger than before. They were the only race to invade back though the Gates during the Oblivion crisis.

 

[LuoirM]

Humans in every history of media is so ass. They're portrayed as basic bitches that can do anything and everything just so authors can random bull shit go with them. Give them some flaws please, Jesus

Irl I don't like Cambodians and Chinese

 

[Indicterra]

Nig- night elves, yes, that's what I was about to say.

Finally somebody relatable
