Handbooker Helper: Elf (Quick Build) 

ay man 20 silver is 20 silver

No..

You're my hero.

Not to be confused with Gnome on Your Dome - an excellent thinking cap, or socks called Kobold with a Toe-Hold. ;)

"I once choked out a beholder with my bare hands and now I'm making human children behave...BEHOLDERS DON'T EVEN HAVE NECKS! What am I doing with my life?"

She is one of the few people where you can take her day to day look, just add long ears and you get a convincing elf cosplay.

She is a real elf, she just use Elven magic to hide her ears day to day. That's what her actual ears looks like

Her porn scenes are awesome, if you’re curious.

They always seem like they are between five to six feet tall. They could be a little pudgy, but i cant see an overweight one.

Samantha Mansfield Literally the only thing I don’t like about official D&D, I always change that as well

Making them tall just makes them even more of a Mary Sue race tbh

@@megavore97 I don't think you know what that means to be honest.

@@megavore97 A mary sue race? Seriously? Being tall doesn't affect anything, there are plenty more things you could use that comparison with. Being a mary sue means you're powerful for no reason. Height doesn't affect that.

I think we would all shed a few tears if she told us her life story.

I would love for her to guest with the M9. Maybe she will play a drow.

@@blazejcholewinski2566 Please. Satine will settle for nothing but full Eladrin in all their feytastic glory :P That said, Drow rule. My "main" character is a Drow.

I wonder if she'd talk about her time in porn

@@oOPPHOo you spelt "drool" wrong

Sea Elves: Swimming team kids. Pallid Elves: Kids that think they are detectives.

I am a moon elf 😊.

...You know, you're actually not wrong in that.

That's just the PHB subraces. You're missing one with the Eladrin. They, i assume would be the Theater/Arts kids. Just look at them in Volo's Guide.

There are like, 17 elven subraces at this point. It's nuts.

Eladrin Bipolar people Shadar-Kai EMO EMO EMO kids Sea Elves swimmers Pallid Elves detectives

Mans been watching too many shonens.. but true.

pointy-eared bastards think they're better than everyone!

@@TheBeastlyBrass Because they are. I for one welcome our Elven Overlords

To quote a wise man "Don't start me on Elves. My perennial bugbear. Elves are basically "What If Aryans were right about there being a master race?" Fucking Elves" Though in D&D they actually kind of suck, they live close to eight times as long as humans and still wind up with less skills, simply because humans learn skills that much faster.

Elves live 10 times longer and do ten times less than humans

Can you link the source of this?

@@Rawilow the player's handbook

@@Rawilow The most recent printings of the PHB; DndBeyond.

It's one of the things I struggle with in my world building. Elves live incredibly long yet youthful lives and sleep only for half as much as humans. Even without their magic, they should rule any world they inhabit if they so desired. Obviously, the struggle is overcome by saying they don't really desire ruling the world and would rather dedicate decades of life on practicing how to recite the just the first stanza of a piece of poetry. Even when it comes to the military, by the time a human fighter has gone from private soldier to seasoned war veteran, the elven fighter has finally become pleased with how they unsheath their sword.

@@oOPPHOo That's, imo, the correct way to view it. It's difficult, but we have to face that we have a very, "human," perception of time. Elves aren't humans with a couple of centuries tacked on, you know? They're weird alien fey-relatives that know they're going to live for nearly a millennium.

Made one on dndbeyond with the light cantrip. I like to imagine he uses it on his sword to make it look like a lightsaber and he makes his own sound effects.

I made a mute High Elf with the minor illusion cantrip. When he needs to say something, he creates an illusion of a sign where what he wants to say is written on it. Or sometimes he plays pictionary with his party members.

aeeeeldriiitch bleeeeaaaast

@@jelliefishr2336 Wizard cantrip, not Warlock cantrip. Only Warlocks get Eldritch Blast.

@@OpDDay2001 oh, okay, fair. eldritch blast is pretty OP

Hahaha. I like that. I imagine it is good for roleplaying.

@@BrianWilkersontheAuthor Oh yes, he's great fun to play. About a month ago he died after getting caught in a room with mimics, but he's right in the sweet spot of smart enough to know what he's talking about and wise enough to know he's a moron, so he had to be convinced that he had actually died, and then had to convince the bard that it's okay to stop babysitting him while he was recovering from all the -stats that come from being resurrected. He's also extremely lucky in the way of circumstantial fortune as opposed to getting good rolls himself. In the dungeon he died in, the rogue had gotten petrified, so he was on temporary rogue duty. One of the treasure caches he found (the specific contents of which were rolled a little after he died, as a character dying is a very emotional moment) turned out to have a diamond of the minimum required value for the spell, so now he's a little dead set with idea that "Sure I died, but I found the thing that we needed to bring me back so it's not like I did anything incorrectly". This isn't even bringing up Animal Handling his way out of combat encounters, making arguments that the DM doesn't even ask for a Persuasion check, or the time the Fighter volunteered to take a spell (turned out to be Finger of Death) that would have killed him.

I'm going to make a wood elf that was brought up in the city and everyone thinks he is a high elf because of how he acts and dresses but whenever he's with an animal he's like "which one would be your name?" and the thing is like "unholy screech" and my elf like "a good name for such a creature indeed" then proceeds to politely and respectfully feed it. He would be the type of guy to call his dog sir xD

I want to hope that Sam wrote that one.

Keep it secret, keep it safe!

Alt: “Hide it well”

@cak01vej back in first edition Demi Human didn't mean half human. It was a blanket term for certain humanoid races such as Elves, Dwarves and Halflings but didn't include some humanoids like Orcs. It was dropped primarily for being redundant.

@cak01vej Congrats about pointless talking. The genre, like many RPGs, uses the term "races" where it should use "species," but there's a reason people don't go around with their nose stuck up in the air while typing on the internet about how "races" is incorrect.

@cak01vej n. race A local geographic or global human population distinguished as a more or less distinct group by genetically transmitted physical characteristics The rest of your pedantic text: TL;DR

@cak01vej Cool story, bro. Kthxbai

And how much I want her to make an appearance in the campaign.

I have a phb from 2017 that doesn't make any additional distinction. RAW would suggest a long rest is 8 hours, regardless of how much a character spends sleeping...

sebastianwillows The Sage Advice PDF I linked is from 2019, but the actual errata on this particular rule was published in 2017; so not all PHBs will contain the update, depending on when the physical book was published.

@@JustinTotino ahh- that's fair!

Navigator*

Is like 1 or 2 whole points to your AC and maybe 1 for your DC for saves and spell bonus if 4 elements

@Follow the howl lol i always see the variant tiefling monk! if we are being more "weird" id like to try rolling a firbolg monk

@@Bawinni Wood elves make the best rogues because they can hide easier. And you get access to that 1d8 longbow. Of course the High Elves get access to the _Mending_ cantrip so you never have to worry about arrows breaking. But yes, the wood elf monk is the most common monk, due to Point Buy being the official Adventurer's League rules.

My first proper character was a Wood Elf Four Elements Monk, but I made him before reading much about popular race-class combinations. It just made sense for what I imagined he looked like. I feel you shouldn't shy away from a particular race just because it's popular. When I'm making characters, I go for either the class or the personality first, then tack the race on once I know what I want for them.

The party monk in the game I DM is a wood elf monk, and he also took the racial feat that lets him cast longstrider once a day. At level 4 he's already pretty much The Flash.

Doesn't booming blade trigger only when the target moves away voluntarily?

Wood elf is also great That +1 wis, longbow, hiding bonus and extra 5ft speed make a great set of tools for a scout

@@Ryquard1 It does, but as the cantrip grows more powerful, the initial hit gains some extra Thunder damage on top of the weapon damage.

What race is? . . . If you say Humans I swear to god 😠

They're trying to stick to the basics here since this is for beginners and I think only covers what's in the PHB.

Elflets BTFO

Elves aren't the Ubermensch in DnD unlike in many other worlds

Actualy I find that refreshing. At least they are not the same tall blonde perfect bulshit elves they are everywhere else.

Pre-Tolkien Elves were diminutive beings. Elves being *taller* than humans bothered me for quite awhile.

@@Rathkryn Pre Tolkien Elves were what we now call Forest Gnomes basicly XD

Elves are naturally granted proficiency in Perception

@@taylor222888 I meant I forgot to put it in my sheet. But I rechecked it and it's there XD Thanks anyway ^_^

Geneasi aren't in the Player's Handbook so that probably won't happen. :)

@@Rathkryn Ah, I see. Thanks for telling me ^^;; I'm still kind of a noob to DnD

Maybe she's on the Tal'Dorei Council.

Her between the sheets would be great but it would take an extreme amount of guts for her. That said she is an incredibly strong woman so you never know.

@@comewatchmediealot Pretty sure she isn't ashamed of working in the sex industry. Nor should she be TBH.
