I have a lot of feelings about Star Wars

just thought about star wars and teared up

what if there was a franchise that was about hope, and the relationships between fathers and their children, and the relationships between mentors and their students, and redemption, and fighting against evil even when it all seems lost, and ordinary people believing in the possibility of a better and brighter future, and clinging to your culture even when darkness threatens to overcome you, and being thrust into situations that are so much bigger than you but still doing your best to make even the smallest difference, and fighting against oppression even when it’s all you’ve ever known, and watching the universe change around you and being unable to stop it, and being let down by the people closest to you but still being able to forgive them, and having faith in the people around you even when you don’t have faith in yourself. and also there are laser swords.

I totally understand why, of all the playable species first introduced in the Planescape campaign setting, tieflings would be the one to make the jump to the D&D core, but sometimes I like to imagine the world where it had been rogue modrons instead. The standard D&D species are humans, elves, dwarves, hobbits, and cubes.
