Coolest Races I have seen: Elves Wemic (humanoids) Flind (gnoll subrace--neat
disarming trick) Gold, Silver, Bronze Dragons (Council of Wyrms) Lupin,
Rakasta (Mystara-LOTS of perception bonuses), Hengeiokai(sp?) Dog/Psionicist-
the perfect spy.

I know I'm going to regret saying this, but I still believe the human
player charactor is the best. they have no limitations at all. Other than
attributes.

In some ways I agree, but, what about age?

On the topic of videoized D&D, I haven't seen any worth considering, maybe on
home computers, but nintendo and sega, etc. systems really don't have any good
TSR games, but on computer there are a few, it just depends on who you are.

If you're looking for the coolest race in the AD&D world, I think that it would
have to be kender from the Dragonlance campaign. They can act a little insane
at some times, but they're still the best!

To dgd: Your attitude does not surprise me, but you fail to take one thing
into consideration: there are DMs who either modify or ignore rules they don't
likt like. In all cases, DM's word can override the rulebooks.

Only if the DM is either a despotic dictator or a moron. Or both.

I generally take some reality into play, I also don't let my PC's challenge me,
I don't tolerate it. And it keeps them from making too much of a deal of it.

GameMastering <oh, sorry, DM-ing.. this is the D&D item> is a fine
art. One must always be flexible enough to handle characters wandering
into places you hadn't expected, but rigid enough that you aren't run over
by some rules-lawyer.

Well, the simplest way to get around them is to declare, at the
very outset, that you are running a "house-rules" version of the game.
This strips away much of what they see as their leverage. People who try
to run a "purist" campaign are ASKING for rules-lawyers to kill the fun.

If y'all are interested in some on-line gaming, check out the DS conference--
An ongoing DarkSun campaign is being DM'ed by *moi* at the moment, but
I will try to work in non-DS races if you insist and I approve.
Personally, I like gnomes. I don't care what bonuses a race gives, 'cos
I choose races for teh personality. Psychopathic Gnomes are fun to play,

I had an encounter with an 'Orb of the Great Wyrm' once, and I got turned into
an albino. But I got an Intelligence of 19 out of it, so.....
