      Right? I’m already forced to be a human every single day. I don’t need more of that.

    He can kick ass though. Especially when threatened with Shion’s cooking.

    After the horrors of 3.5e/PF1e, I just can’t go back to another Human PC. Every PC was a human, because they were the only ones who got another flexible feat slot, and there were a LOT of feat taxes.

      My approach to that kind of thing was always to just use the statblock I wanted, and re-skin it to the lineage I wanted.

      Isn’t this still a thing? Almost every character I’ve played in 5e who wasn’t a human would have been mechanically stronger as a Variant Human (or a Custom Lineage with the feat option) than as whatever they were.

    There’s two types of goblins — mindless gremlins who want nothing more than to gut you like a fish, and halflings with green skin.

    I play a human 7 days a week, almost every hour of the day and night, except when I play dnd. I like to be someone that isn’t like me from time to time :)

    I’ve actually never played a goblin. Although I might, if my one player follows through on his threat to run Pathfinder 2–I already have a Goblin Paladin of Calistria statted up.

    I have never played a goblin either. Bonus to DEX and to CON? Pretty cool. I guess the disengage feature would be redundant with a rogue however.

    Might have to make a cheeky goblin ranger or druid someday.

      Honestly, the kit is great for every class other than rogue, although it’s especially good for ranged classes that want to back away from enemies.

      Anyone following my posts here has figured out by now that I have a goblin cleric… It’s exceptionally nice, especially at low levels, to be able to disengage as a bonus action, walk 30ft then use a touch range heal or buff spell. (Not to mention being able to walk through large enemy spaces)

    My inner munchkin doesn’t like playing humans much. If they had +2 all stats instead of +1, or a useful racial power (all healing received is maximized), maybe.

    I guess there’s variant human for the feat if your table allows it.

    Recently I have been working on improving my human-to-nonhuman character ratio by playing characters that are at least half human. In my last campaign I was a centaur druid, and in the current one I’m a merfolk cleric/sorcerer!
