Years ago, when I learned that World of Warcraft allowed you to either speak in common tongue or your character’s native racial tongue, I would park my night elf in capital cities and shout in Darnassian about how night elves are superior to all other races. Got a lot of LOLs from other night elves.
There was one low-level night elf who popped up once to rant back in Darnassian about how dwarves were the superior race. Guess someone made a new character to see what all the shouting was about and got offended. We had a pretty fun debate over the characteristics of both races, and it came down to personal preference by the end.
I miss old WoW.
I remember doing something similar with gnomes!
Once I was high level enough to solo it, I would offer to run groups of low-level gnomes through Deadmines. But only gnomes. The reactions were priceless.
Ah you think racism is your ally? You merely took levels in racism. Elves were born in it, molded by it. They didn’t see stop using slurs until the Third Age, by then it was nothing to them but Woke!
My human monk got in a lot of hot water for throat chopping elves. She believed very strongly in having good manners.
the elfs have slurs for things that man has no normal words for
This is the real reason Finnish schools are teaching Swedish to every kid

So wait. You learned Elvish ironically?
Not cause it’s a good language or nothin’ scoff who would do that?
Drow all the way.
Real talk though, in one campaign I did, I made a dragonborn barbarian that could only speak draconic. It pissed my friends off so much, but it was hilarious to me
My friend and I had a dynamic like that in a campaign. He was playing a dwarf barbarian who only spoke dwarven and I was playing a dwarf witch. When his barbarian would mouth off in dwarven about the party, my character would “translate” to something like, “He wishes you all good luck.”
