Even if they aren't canon, fireball accepts them all into its warm embrace.
Did someone say Eldritch Blast
That’s a weird way to spell “smite” but maybe it’s a regional thing.
All three of them have sharp teeth though and if green/brown/gray counts then all 3 have many colors
The example goblin also has a tail.
Lmao it does. Venn diagram is literally a circle here
Why are dragonborn excluded from the "many colors" section of the diagram? They have a wider variety of colors than goblins or tieflings. This is a very poor Venn diagram.
Their small, fine scales are usually brass or bronze in color, sometimes ranging to scarlet, rust, gold, or copper-green. ... The blood of a particular type of dragon runs very strong through some dragonborn clans. 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.

While we're at it, tge goblin picture selected has a tail . . .
If you're running the game, it's your world. They can have tails or no tails or 3 asses or whatever you want.
oh look at mister assman with all his asses. I would kill for just one buttcheek.
Was honestly expecting Konsi at the bottom for Goblins
Fyi there is (or at least was) a dragonborn sub-race that has tails, so this is kinda wrong. It's purely flavor so it doesn't really matter, but still.
Edit: wait, tieflings also officially have tails, what the fuck are you on about?
That's how venn diagrams work... Tieflings and dragonborn both share the "tails" section
...right, maybe I've just forgotten how venn diagrams are supposed to work, but doesn't inclusion of "let's ignore the book description of this race" mean that the op is saying that tails aren't lore accurate? The reason I read it that way is because there are way too many people who insist that dragonborn with tails aren't lore accurate when they can be.
No. It means that people tend to ignore the book description for all 3.
I definitely see where you're coming from. The author excluded dragonborn from the "Many Colors" section, which might lead one to believe that this is a diagram of traits that are commonly expressed in a race despite the official book descriptions. e.g. it's stereotypically common to make blue tieflings or green goblins despite the official descriptions.
So either the author is wrong for saying dragonborn don't officially come in many colors, or they're wrong for saying tieflings don't officially have tails. Either way, it's a bad diagram.
Oh thank god I wasn't the only one getting confused by it.
which might lead one to believe that this is a diagram of traits that are commonly expressed in a race despite the official book descriptions
Yeah, this is pretty much exactly it. It seemed like a chart of things people include despite the lore, which is why I was left feeling confused as shit because, well, tails on dragonborn and tieflings are lore-friendly.
