I suppose you could swap out Gnoll for Beastmen since that's less specific

Before the movies, it was hobbits. I still have a soft spot for halfling rogues, clich as it is.

Nowadays, dwarves. There a lot you can do with them that's unexplored in mainstream media.
Lizardfolk are next in line, but for entirely different reasons >_>

Orcs. Underrated underexplored group mostly relegated to "lol they're the bad guys" without any additional explanation for most of fiction.

Elf.

I find magic more fascinating than physical-based abilities, and elves usually are more on the magic side.

Dark elf lolis = Dwarf lolis > Elf lolis > Goblin lolis > Orc lolis

Haven't seen lolis of the others. Though like half of these were just recolored elf lolis.

tbh i feel as far as fantasy races go, orcs get a far greater amount of representation and nuance than other races. two of the most popular fantasy franchises of the past couple decades put orcs in the spotlight (Warhammer/40k and Warcraft), where they've gotten more exposition than any other non-human race

I went with Lizardfolk, normally I a human guy. But from the less that is the best.

I hate Elves, like the tall normal sized ones. Not the tiny ones. In like every media that they are in. They are OP and won't let people forget about it. Fuck you Legolas.

Elves. I like that they are generally dicks that, while truthfully better than most other races, also are incredible prone to hubris based on their superiority.

That reminds me, I hate how overused blonde busty elves are.

One or the other is fine, but both together is a super-common design and it's boring.

Though I'll give Shera a pass because her boobs are so comically large that it works.

Warcraft definitely but only since WC3 honestly. In 1 and 2 they were just bad.

WH40k gives a weird interpretation but for the most part they're still bad and the entire setting is turbo racist.

In elder scrolls, orcs are just another type of elf.

40K orcs are what happen when the shrooms are so funky that they get high off themselves.

what do you mean turbo racist? orks arent evil and there are no good guys in 40k. the imperium of man is objectively more "evil" than the orks.

40k orks are, largely, just looking for a good fight, be it amongst themselves or other species, but individuals and factions of orks have their own goals and motivations. there's around a half dozen major "subkulturs" within the orks ranging from "i just wanna build some really fast shit to drive around in" engineers, to snazzy space pirate mercenaries, lowtech monster hunters that revere "da old wayz", to yes, i really just wanna fight someone.

whfb/sigmar orcs are similar in nature, and at the current point in time, I think there's 3 separate major orc subraces going around (ironjawz orruks, black orcs, and kruelboyz orruks), and their appearance, societies and general demeanor varies wildly between them

I mean like literally every race hates every other race and there's a nonstop race war going on at all times.

Imperium of Man is the closest to good. Orks literally just want to kill you because they want to kill you. The Imperium is xenophobic as hell, but the ultimate goal is self-preservation, not fighting for the sake of fight.

Worth noting that the imperium of man was actually good until the Horus heresy. Without the emperor they've regressed into an ignorant superstitious empire.
