I love how the 5e corebook is veryΒ clear about how dragonborn do not have tails and literally every player and DM since has unilaterally saidΒ β€œThat’s fucking dumb give them a tail :/”

if you give them a big stupid dragon head but no tail theyll be top heavy and fall over. this is so sad 1000 like

Dealing with death in tabletop RPGs:

  • Miraculously returned to life by kindly old priest
  • Soul implanted in clockwork robot by ethically dubious wizard
  • Filthy druid speed-runs cycle of reincarnation, brings you back as an owl
  • Replaced by identical twin with suspiciously similar name seeking revenge for death of sibling
  • Talk GM into making the next adventure a flashback to before you died

  • Promote familiar or animal companion to player character status
  • Apply ghost template and continue adventuring, but now with awesome ghost powers
  • Invoke β€œyou keep what you kill” and declare that the monster that killed you is now your character
  • Just show up again next session, claim to have been on vacation, and refuse to acknowledge any suggestion to the contrary
  • Actually roll up a new character

tiny brain: playing a dragonborn to breathe fire

big brain: playing a dragonborn to be a member of a Proud Warrior Race like a fantasy klingon

galaxy brain: playing a dragonborn to lay eggs

interdimensional brain: playing any other race and still laying eggs because nothing in the books says you can’t
