Canon is wrong, dragonborn have tails
the official canon states that tieflings can't be purple, and yet the official artwork for a tiefling is a purple tiefling
Possibly the most ignored sentence in the PHB, even by Wotc themselves:
Their skin tones cover the full range of human coloration, but also include various shades of red.
Purple is a shade of red, trust me I'm a colorist
I can do you a few of the most ignored pages in the PHB: I've yet to meet a table that uses Trinkets
I had a Tortle Kensei Monk (Ninja Turtle) that had 77 on the trinket table. "A gemstone that looks like a lump of coal when examined by anyone but you." In one of dungeons we were in, I lost it trying to bribe our way out after the BBEG captured us. I was bummed about it ever since, it was my prized possession. Later on in the campaign I came across a genie who asked us to run off or kill the Aboleth that had taken over his home. In return he would grant us a wish. I've never come across a genie ever in my 25 years of playing DND. The group was reluctant to fight it, so I lied and told them we would all get wishes. We defeated the Aboleth and go to ask for wishes. I ask him if we can all have wishes and he shuts that down fast. Before the group can come to a consensus about what to wish for, I blurted out that I wish for my trinket back. Poof, it appeared and now I'm one happy tortle. My companions, not so much.
...i love you; this is why i play RPGs...
Our group likes to roll on that table and then never bring up their trinkets in game. Such a missed opportunity
It counts if you consider every color with some amount of red in it a shade of red
Example: #dcd2f0 (my tiefling's skin color)
Official Dragonborn PHB description say Dragonborns are brown/rust coloured, with some being rust-copper green.
Artwork on the same page is a red scaled dragonborn.
The full sentence is "Their small, fine scales are usually brass or bronze in color, sometimes ranging to scarlet, rust, gold, or copper-green." So a red one is kinda like a real life human with ginger hair; uncommon, but not weird. There's also the bit about dragonborn with a particularly strong influence of their draconic ancestor shortly afterwards that says, "These dragonborn often boast scales that more closely match those of their dragon ancestor - bright red, green, blue, or white, lustrous black, or gleaming metallic gold, silver, brass, copper, or bronze."
You omitted that the draconic colored scales are from extremely rare and isolated clans.
Rare, yeah, but still a valid possibility. But the main part I wanted to bring up is that the sentence you were referring to actually already includes "scarlet" as an ordinary colour, so the red one in the accompanying picture fits just fine
The player characters are generally adventurers fated to achieve greatness, for them the extraordinary is just ordinary.
This was settled years ago
TROGDOR THE BURNINATOR!
Another image I can hear thanks to Bill Wurtz.
I recognize that the council has made a decision, but given that it's a stupid-ass decision i've elected to ignore it.
Speaking as a person playing a soot-black tiefling...
This is the real reason I stopped playing D&D. The OGL stuff was just a smoke screen.
You want a tail, play a Kobold!
Why are Japan and Korea the same color on this map? 🤨
It's a screen cap from a video talking about Japan's involvement in World War 2, where they invaded Korea.
Erm, tails are based, ofc my pc has one!
