Tagged "Race"

I ’m increasingly dissatisfied with "race" as a mechnanic in D&D. I don't take exception to the term itself but rather that "race" is a named set of mechanical features that have some amount of impact on character creation, a small impact on light in dungeons and no consequence for role-playing. In my opinion if Elves (and others) have no differences in culture, faith or government then they're humans in costumes.
