Not a greentext, but certainly in the spirit of this sub.

Its based on a greentext that was in this sub, so close enough.

What greentext? Could you provide a link for us energy efficiency midned people?

[–]Airship_CaptainNiada | Elf Ranger 39ポイント40ポイント  (3子コメント)

All I could find was this facebook post, is that what you're talking about?

It comes very close, though I fear only /u/coroxe can deny or confirm wether or not this is what he was referring to...

You try to muster up a good logical argument as to why the Paladin and the Fighter shouldn't fight but part of you REALLY wanted to see them fight. So what you actually say is "FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT"

[–]MisterSaltineUnprofessional Adventurer 9ポイント10ポイント  (0子コメント)

"I encourage violence."

[–]Matazaonreddit 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

"Guys, calm down. Fighting is not the answer. I know fighting is awesome and feels like the right thing to do, when the blood boils and you can feel your heart beating like a wardrum. I remember still when I killed a man with my bare hands when he tried to steal from me. I curbstomped that bastard good. Uhm, what was I saying? Yeah, don't fight, please!"

Most of these people would not get together at all.

Unless if it's London.

[–]vonmonologue 27ポイント28ポイント  (3子コメント)

Or high school activities.

Although I'm thinking about it and I can honestly say I've never seen an Asian guy, a white guy, a girl in a hijab, and a black girl all in the same group. DC certainly has enough of each group to do it though. Different cultural influences and social circles I guess.

Also apparently latinos don't play DnD in this comics universe... unless the white guy actually is latino.

[–]KingOfThePimps 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

At my high school we had a girl who used to wear a hijab, two black girls, one asian girl, and one white girl. My graduating class was almost 40 people.

That being said, I'm pretty sure none of those girls would want anything to do with DnD. They liked shopping though.

[–]donutbomb 7ポイント8ポイント  (1子コメント)

... that's almost exactly my friend group (and I'm in the South too). Except instead of a black girl, we have a giant white bearded lumberjack-looking motherfucker.

[–]Pheebalicious 7ポイント8ポイント  (3子コメント)

Last time I went to the pub with friends (in London), we consisted of two Indians (different 'kinds' - one Sikh, one Anglo), an Italian, a Swiss chick, a lady from Mauritius, and an English girl. We played Cards Against Humanity.

So... yeah.

[–]AdamBombTV 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

Who was the most dirty?

[–]Pheebalicious 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

That's a tough one... The Italian is the most liberal and free with the dirtiness. She's definitely the enabler of the rudeness. The Anglo Indian, also my husband, has the dirtiest sense of humour of all the people I know, but he doesn't often let it out. The Sikh is very reserved, but getting dirtier with our encouragement. The Swiss chick has rather dirty moments, often unexpected and kinda vulgar and inappropriate in a good way. The Mauritian lady knew a lot of dirty words in her own language, which she enjoyed sharing. And me, the English, is the common, run of the mill, chavvy dirty, I think. I think we all bring something to the smut table.

The Sikh won. Her dirtiness was definitely the most surprising.

There used to be a time where my group had a rule about rolling nat-1s on charisma checks. If you did, you immediately tried to have sex with whatever you were trying to persuade, deceive, etc.

It pretty much started out like this every time.

[–]DeschainDuGilead 98ポイント99ポイント  (50子コメント)

Well that is the least offensive and ethnically diverse cast of characters I've ever seen outside of a CW show. It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't so obvious.

I mean, tall/athletic black friend isn't really something you steal from one particular show. Like, I'm not even trying to be racist here, but that actually just seems like a character trope.

[–]DRHARNESS 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

Yeah you probably shouldn't have said that. Out of curiosity how many are in your group? My main group has none but I also DM for a group that has three girls and one guy, I think they clump together.

[–]sgtpeppers508 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

In my main group I'm the only one, but I also play with a group made up of 5 girls (including the DM) and 0 guys. So yeah, I would say we definitely clump together.

[–]PM_ME_FUN_STORIES 23ポイント24ポイント  (3子コメント)

Everyone is mentioning this. Is it really that weird to have friends from different ethnicities and backgrounds playing together? This is almost identical to what my group looks like, and I don't really think that it's out of place.

[–]Decalance 1ポイント2ポイント  (2子コメント)

Reddit really doesn't like ethnic diversity, especially in art.

[–]Maxrdt 8ポイント9ポイント  (1子コメント)

I get that it can be annoying when it's forcibly shoehorned into things or forced, but it's possibly the least important detail of this entire comic, why not just let it slide? Who even cares?

I came to these comments hoping for funny related stories about accidental romances and critical failures, and all I get is "The background characters are too diverse!"

Honestly. This thread has like, two or three first level comments about it and I'm just like "wait there was an asian guy?"

      I'm Hispanic but that doesn't mean I need a Hispanic character to relate. I'm relating to the character of the person and not to their skin color. The anime that I watch are mostly japanese characters, the netflix series have mostly while male protagonist, my favorite wrestler is a black dude portraying an Aztec descendant. It's pretty BS to say you can't relate to a character because he's white or black.

      [–]rg90184 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

      It's pretty BS to say you can't relate to a character because he's white or black.

      Agreed, and its honestly pretty damn racist. Boy I sure do love Peter Parker and the struggles he goes through with his family and home life really make me think about my own problems, but I can't identify with him on a basic human level because he's white.

      That just comes across as some racist bullshit right there.

      [–]rg90184 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

      People that aren't white guys though get upset, cause there aren't any characters that they can empathize with.

      Then they're shit people who lack human empathy if they can't identify with someone they don't look like.

      [–]Zukaku 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

      Oh yeah? I didn't even notice that there were people in this comic at first!

      [–]Gravitationalrainbow[S] 5ポイント6ポイント  (6子コメント)

      Same.

      Guess caring more about a funny comic than the skin colors of the cast members makes me the weird one.

      Thanks Reddit... I didn't need these feels today.

      Thanks Reddit... I didn't need these feels today.

      You don't belong on the internet.

      [–]lightningrod14 -4ポイント-3ポイント  (4子コメント)

      Well...sorry we ruined your day?

      Beyond the fact that this is a perfectly reasonable complaint to have (unnecessary diversity ruins immersion and can be seen as propaganda or self-congratulatory, because it often is) if you honestly are so worried about the internet's response to something you post then maybe you should stay away from places where people might disagree with you (which is also a bad idea.) Most of the critics in this thread are being civil, and if we're hurting your feelings, that's...kind of your problem, not ours.

      And to be clear: the comic is less funny because of the forced diversity. We're caring about the funny comic more than anything else, because that's all that should matter. However, that's clearly not all that matters for the artist, which is kind of insulting and definitely detracts from the comic itself.

      [–]Gravitationalrainbow[S] -2ポイント-1ポイント  (3子コメント)

      It doesn't matter that people disagree. What makes me sad is that people are so blinded by race and tumblr-hate that something as minor as what shade the characters are, can completely derail the discussion of what was meant to be a light-hearted diversion. No matter how you try to hide it, your bitching and moaning communicates that non-cis gender white people have no place in this hobby. You're all so sensitive that you can't handle people who are different than you participating in the same form of escapism as you. Frankly, it's disgusting.

      I thought people were better than that. Your failure as a human being is what makes me sad.

      [–]Rickymex 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

      non-cis gender white people

      I'm on your side in that the race of the character don't matter but when you start using this terms it makes it way harder. You end up coming out as an asshole which is pretty bad considering you're arguing against people who would be on the "racist" side.

      [–]Gravitationalrainbow[S] 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

      That's the actual term for the group I'm referring to. If you have a problem with that I, uh, don't quite know what to tell you.

      Oh so you're just an asshole then. Peace out.

      You're right. He literally said that ethnic diversity is bad. Also implying it's impossible to have a racially diverse group of friends "IRL".

      Actually, that's not true. It's WarGames rules--the only winning move is not to play. The only "right" way to draw a group is to just not give a shit. This artist clearly gave a shit.

      So a couple bad dice rolls changes his character's sexual preferences? Shouldn't that be the players choice? I mean he doesn't seem like he's all for it.

      Cool. Downvotes for disagreeing to force your player's character into a sexual situation. What the hell is wrong with you guys? If my player told me she wanted to play a lesbian I would not force her to marry a guy on a crit fail.

      [–]decamonos 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

      A series of fails where they compliment each other, and lightly caress each other.

      Then the player very clearly states his intent to seduce the Orc. Which he does.

      The player made his bed, and is laying in it.

      [–]The_Evil_Upvote 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

      When she makes the orc attack and she crit fails, it would have just been a failed attack. As a dm I believe the player has control over THEIR character. It is wrong to force your feelings/stance on any subject matter into a player's characters...maybe unless it was a wish spell and you are prepared for the argument at the table.
