[3.5] List of Half-Breeds

[DiscipleofBob]

So what's the other half of a halfling?

[Otogi]

So what's the other half of a halfling?

A ling, obviously.

[Tingel]

Otogi,HOW DARE YOU MAKE A TYPO
HOW DARE YOU?

It wasn't a typo; Teifling was used exclusively and quite often within this thread, so it wasn't an accidental misspelling.

There are other mistakes in Otogi's list, but as they are obviously just typos I didn't mention them.

I only mentioned the Hobogoblin because I found it funny.

[lisiecki]

It wasn't me, it was the one armed man! How else do you expect typos?!

You've gone to far, you made a typo that, as we can see from Tingel's post, IN NO WAY affected there ability to understand what you were trying to say. This upset them so much that they felt the need to draw attention to this.

"one armed man" indeed...

[Otogi]

Now I feel a little scared

Anyway, for more half-breed madness, check out the Lineage Feats for 4e in my sig.

[Tingel]

Again, it wasn't a typo. Orge Mage or Humaniod (both in Otogi's list) are simple typos and thus don't need to be pointed out, but Teifling was used so repeatedly that it has to be based on an actual misconception. Since the term means something, using the proper spelling is desirable, and Otogi or newbDM might actually care.

Well, Its because of typo's that so many people got confused when people typed Rouge when trying to type rogue.

This confused many forum posters who come from a far off past (The 1980's i believe) before people started, commonly, using "blush" to refer to that type of cosmetic.

Tingel,

This obviously meant so much to you, that you felt the need to mention it.
I can only assume that your attempts to defend Otogi now are the result of threats against your life. It's ok, you don't have to give in to them. If brave people like you don't point out that others are misspelling words, who will?

Off-topic but... so now everyone is going to be part Bugbear? They (WotC) really need to properly stat out Bugbears (like they did Minotaurs) so this silliness ends.

I still Owlbear's to be the most disturbing of all...

I have no idea what you are trying to say.

[lisiecki]

Ah, that's my fault, it would appear rereading that post, that I was disrespectful enough of my fellow forum users to misspell at least one word.
At one point, the misspelling was important enough to you that you felt the need to point it out.
Now, you're making it seem like its not a big deal
I have to assume that your change of heart came across due to people who misspell words making threats against your life.
Don't worry, I have alerted the proper authority's on your behalf. The world must be kept safe for those who point out the honest mistakes of others.

[Otogi]

Okay, I think typos are mostly fixed.

Not if you think having a sword that does 1d10 damage is worth looking like fugly bear-man and wasting a heroic feat.

[Asbestos]

Yeah, but I've got feats to spare. A feat that let's you get the oversized weapon property is too much. The fact that the only other way to get it, besides being a bugbear, is through an epic destiny should mean something.

I wish there was another way to put it in, but I don't know how to make so that it isn't underpowered.

Aasimar (Human/Half-Celestial) - Monster Manual

Tiefling (Human/Half-Fiend) - Monster Manual

Can you explain your reasoning for this? I'm pretty sure the MM mentions something along the line tracing a blood line. And where do the Celestial and Fiendish templates fit in. After all Celestials are mentioned in the description.

[lisiecki]

Sorry everybody

Re: idiocy

You failed to realize the difference between a typo and a genuine misspelling and started to belittle me.

Sorry every body, I failed to realize what an idiot i am.
My bad

[newbDM]

This has me pondering, has there ever been a published (WotC or 3rd party) half-human/half-halfling, half-elf/half-halfling, and/or a half-gnome/half-halfling?

...

You were just waiting to use that, weren't you?

You have no idea. At least two years.

[Tingel]

I know this isn't 3.5, but there's a gnomeling base race in HackMaster.

Aasimar and Tieflings are the grandchildren of Half-Celestials and Half-Fiends, while Celestial and Fiendish creatures are simply creatures who are native to upper and lower planes respectably.

[newbDM]

Damn. So close.


Although, I am guessing their story is quite hilarious.

But again, why categorize them as human, when the entries do not detail them as such?

[Otogi]

Because their in the Races of Destiny, and beside that, ever since they came out they've always been described as being part human, as it says in the PS boxset.

Part human =/= half human

[Otogi]

Part human =/= half human

Alright, human with outsider blood.

[Inhuman Bot]

That is a creepy list.

Mechatrice.

WTF!

and the elf/naga?

I'll have nightmares for weeks.

[Otogi]

Eh, I've seen worst lists. Most Terrible Looking Sex Toy comes to mind.

[lisiecki]

I dono...

Im fairly sure watching a beholder mate with...
ANYTHING
Would be worse than watching any human use any sex toy, no matter how soul crushing

Ah, but we don't know about the sex, just the result.

[Vexxation]

Wait, Tingel really got attacked for correcting spelling?
Seriously?


Anyway. Those Bastards & Bloodlines creatures frighten me. I may well have nightmares regarding them.
