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