Hey folks,
I've only ever done one weekend of this, but I've been wanted to get back into it. However, I have a question that I was wondering if anyone would have an answer for.
I've always liked sort of "anti-hero" neutral characters, and to me, little monsters like goblins always fit that bill. Now I know that goblins exist in the world, as they are normally played by NPCs for random events. However, I was wondering if it would be a possible consideration to be a player character of the goblin race. Like my idea is that I'd go all out with green makeup and nose/ear prosthetics, but wear a hooded cloak in town or whatever to disguise myself. Naturally if people found out I was a goblin, they would immediately turn on me and try to kill me (in a lot of cases), but I think it would be an interesting roleplaying dynamic to have to sort of play to the hearts of the people, while still being rather dumb/greedy/mean (as goblins are).
I dunno. I think it would be a fun thing to do. Wouldn't be lore breaking, but the only concern would be character stats. In all honesty, I would actually be willing to accept reduced stats just for being such a lesser race, so there's that.
