A picture of a skinny female orc with the side of her head shaved. She wears an armless red dress and a black shawl, as well as matching red bracelets and a black choker with a gold heart at the front.
At the top of the image is the text "You may not like it, but this is what" in large bubble font
At the bottom of the image is a screenshot from the new D&D changelog, reading "• Orcs no longer have the Powerful Build feature."
And below that, the text "Peak 2024 D&D orc performance looks like" continues the bubble font from the top.
Hey, you're the one who said the opposite thing in subsequent posts...
...
The only thing consistent between your posts is that you're really angry about a joke.
Additionally, it seems you're really struggling to find the thing where "powerful build" is a "species defining trait". So here it is:
It's in the same rules block as "you are a humanoid".
According to your logic, "you are a humanoid" is also an ability, and not a species defining trait. Do you think it's teachable? can I train for 90 days to become an abberation?
They're not conflicting. I said there are species defining traits that don't depend on there being abilities. Because, once again, you're glossing over what I specified in my second comment about abilities, and not species defining traits.
