@Murkrow just noticed the roller skates, holy cripes

@envgen

Me: so uh, couple of questions about character design, do uh, wheels? Exist in D&D?
DM: yes
Me: and um, physical combat?
DM: yes, obviously
Me: one last thing, do boots exist?
Dm: yes
Me: okay so that's all the conponents of roller derby, here is a roller derby elf.

@Murkrow @envgen I feel like roller derby also requires ball bearings.

If you can't roll fast enough, there's no game.

@q_aurelius @Murkrow @envgen
Polyurethane wheels, that's the real deal breaker. It's hard to underestimate how much of the success of Rollerskates, skateboards, skeelers, scooters, etc, all rely on this magical, durable, grippy yet soft material.

But I feel we are taking this far too literally. That looks like a really fun character design and I think this will totally work! Just hope your DM doesn't favour mud/snow/sand too much :chat_jpg:

@kingannoy @q_aurelius @envgen yeah I was going to say there's wizards and warlocks and dragons and all sorts running around willy-nilly I hardly think polyeurethane-adjacent material is too far a leap 😂

On the other hand, I have learned even more about polyeurethane, which just never ceases to amaze!

@Murkrow @kingannoy @q_aurelius its not just polyurethane. it's polyeveryone'sthane
