Only if they're the sexy kind of slaves.TheRightToArmBears said:Billion Backs said:Anything with "ethics",
Errrr... Really? So you're fine if I go get some slaves?

I'm sick of exactly the opposite. I find people ***** an unwarranted amount about them.
Frankly, I don't want to be the attention whore who derails the thread into some kind of a pointless pseudo-autobiography... Send tells if you want to know something.
More on topic, I hate hearing shit like "Twilight vampires aren't real vampires! oh noes! They've completely corrupted mah badass 2 dimensional vampires~"
...who are in reality as fake as Twilight vampires because there's no single established vampire archetype across all cultures aside from general association with blood, usually blood sucking and some supernatural abilities and Dracula is no different from Edward...
Arguments that make dubious claims about how only one archetype for some fictional creature is "the right" archetype. Sure, some things are generally associated with various fantasy creatures and races, usually something that can be reduced to 1 or 2 attributes, but trying to make everything a carbon copy of fucking Lord of The Rings/Dracula/Whatever the fuck you want is stupid, annoying, and I hate it.
Dwarves - short. That's it. Because dwarfs in all cultures are dwarfs, the word dwarf can be used to refer to a short person. You can't have a giant dwarf, unless he's a special case (Cough Carrot cough) because if there's a whole race of dwarfs taller then you, they aren't dwarfs to you. Some 2 inch pixies have no reason to call dwarfs dwarfs in their own language. They'd be more like "giants".
Vampires - blood drinking or any other semi-parasitical lifestyle. Because there are "psychic vampires", apparently. Not that I mind. But emphasis on predatory lifestyle that involves some kind of semi-vital parts of others.
And so on.
