Pass For Human: fooling yourself?


Advice


All,

I was wondering if it would make sense that a half-elf with this feat might be unaware that he was a half-elf? They have good low light vision, but in real life, a few humans do as well. Otherwise, I just thought it might be fun to play a half-elf who simply didnt know he was anything other than human.


Well I have 0 authority, but it makes sense to me. Similarly I have a very human looking Sylph in a play by post who doesn't really think of her self as not human. She just has.. some unique abilities.


Sounds plausible; just like someone who was adopted. "Son, I have something to tell you. I'm not actually your father. You see, there was this elf.."

I like the idea. The easiest person to fool is always our own self. Why not?


1 person marked this as a favorite.

"Why do people always say I have an 'elfy' look? I'll have you know Mom and Dad were both as Human as they could be! And I know Elfy looks, because I know Elf, 'Uncle' Rodarick Stargazer was an elf, and a close friend of the family too. Actually him and mom were 'real' close."


Thanks for the replies! :)
