Re: Mr Manners Guide to Tail Etiquette
And here I thought this was going to refer to Reepicheep, not tieflings. Though I imagine much the same etiquette applies in either case.

Re: Mr Manners Guide to Tail Etiquette
The writer apparently forgot that tieflings' tails are non-prehensile when he was writing the last two paragraphs.
Also, it's outrageous that tieflings have tails and dragonborn don't.Last edited by Tengu; 2008-06-22 at 05:50 AM.

Re: Mr Manners Guide to Tail Etiquette
doesn't need to be prehensile: prehensile means you can grip something, but if tip is rigid, as it looks in some art, it can be pushed through a cup handle.
And the idea of tails being a minor erogenous zone is...interesting.

Re: Mr Manners Guide to Tail Etiquette
Oh gods, after reading this I was suddenly overwhelmed by a ferocious desire to have a tail of my own and feeling it almost as a phantom; well written and quite funny! :)

Re: Mr Manners Guide to Tail Etiquette
Tiefling tails may not be prehensile, but I could picture them being mobile and flexible like a cat's, rather than stiff like a dog's. This would permit wrapping around things (as a display of affection), or lashing about (as a sign of irritation) but not handling objects.
Also, the guy that wrote that needs some spelling and grammar lessons. I don't expect perfection, but reading that hurt my brain.
Edit: By the way, I agree that treating the tails as a "minor erogenous zone" is creepy at best and disturbing at worst. Who would ever want to role-play that...wait, please don't answer that...Last edited by Grynning; 2008-06-23 at 03:29 AM.
