Dungeons and Dragons: Tell me about a fantasy race. I'll either port it to D&D, or tell you a race similar enough to it.

Alright, I did my best with the Duk'zarist but I cannot guarantee I properly understood, as the source given to me used terms from Anima. Still, I think it suffices.

The Duk'zarist Race for Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) Fifth Edition (5e) - D&D Beyond

Duk'zarist are inhuman children of darkness- graceful, proud, and elitist, their people are known for their love of magic and power. They find both in great quantities, while they simply ignore those weaker than themselves. They bear long, pointed ears, crimson eyes, and skin ...

Seems pretty fine for a minimalistic version of a duk. In principle they are forced to have access to magic or psionics (doesn't not means they need to get few specific classes, as classes in anima are just templates), and, I believe pc does not have powers that enhance the healing rate, right?
 
The original till capitalism come, but i will leave because i will sound like a edgy kid who probally puts USR athem at max volume at the bus.

Evangelion is above weeb shit. Genuinely enjoyed it, it was the anime I chose to watch this year. That said, angels cannot really work as a player race.
 
That, and the fact that they're hundreds of meters tall each, barring Nagisa who is an exception. Nothing about them really fits into what makes a player race, even moreso than goofy submissions like the Weeping Angels. I can make anything weaker for balancing purposes, but the Angels just don't make sense.
 
Anyways continuing the thread

The Kuriboh Race for Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) Fifth Edition (5e) - D&D Beyond

The kuriboh are a strange form of monster spirit from an unknown land. Despite appearances, they are not particularly malicious, and can even serve as guides and allies in combat. A select few kuriboh decide to engage in adventures- for some reason, they seem drawn to items su...

I have no idea what class they are best suited towards, probably a caster, given the stat boosts.

What about as a type of Boss Monster? Probably still too broken but it's an interesting idea to me.
 
Ehh. Building-sized monsters aren't technically unheard of in 5e

In Waterdeep: Dragon Heist, there exist massive colossi from previous editions that, while smaller than an Angel or Eva Unit, may well provide a good starting point for statting one out.

So possible, I guess.

The Shokan Race for Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) Fifth Edition (5e) - D&D Beyond

Shokan are semi-reptilian beings born from a biological mixture of dragon and human genetics. The resulting creature was massive, powerfully built, and utterly ruthless- some might say a perfect warrior. They hail from another dimension, wherein they serve their leaders in a c...

Alrighty, some work for today: I like these guys. They would make frankly excellent martial characters due to raw stats and the fact they can multi-wield many weapons (what with having four arms). This alone makes them a top-notch martial, even considering the downsides I've added to it.

Warcraft Liches.

Still never touching Warcraft outside of what I've done because **** Activision Blizzard.

I'm impressed, I don't know much about DnD mechanics but you got the description and alignment right.

Mr. Bambu what do you think about Gorons from LOZ in DnD?

or HIlichurls from genshin impact?

Incredibly late but what about an Enderman race?

Could be interesting. Probably would need to cut their teleportation down from "infinite" but otherwise, there are some neat ideas that could be done there.

Extra hardly humans with several beetles in them with acid/paralytic venom stingers and spidersilk and little understanding of deception.
(Extra Con, less Wis, and a weird familiar type thing)

Well **** Genshin Impact so I'll probably take the Gorons if it comes down to it. I suspect they'll be largely reminiscent of an Earth Genasi mixed with a Goliath.

what the heck is wrong with genshin impact?

it's a nice game mr. bambu


besides hilichurls are a type of goblin
 
I think both of those are downsides to Bambs. Very big ones too.
