We've had threads on how D&D itself has a colonial mindset, but I think that undersells how fucked up and racist players can be. I want this thread to be about players who go out of their way to make characters that break the fourth wall and ruin friendships outside of the game.
I'll start: I had a player come to me with their character: "Gucci, the rapping goblin bard". The details were what you would expect. Like he literally put a picture of Gucci Mane in the chat. I told him that this was blackface and I wouldn't allow it. He had a tantrum about being called racist, and now we no longer speak (lol).
Daenerys Targaryen /thread
Oh yeah, and all her enemies are Orientalist stereotypes and Qarth itself is just... offensive.
I haven't seen game of thrones, but..
Oh yeah, and literally slavery and pedophiliac slavery at that.
Like I said, lots of Arab and other such "Eastern" stereotypes here.
Eyyup...
The totally not middle eastern slave traders sitting around in old buildings because their culture began stagnating 1000 years ago, and they're all imitating a superior roman greco-roman culture aren't problematic at all. Come on.
Yeah...
