Hey all
My group is very soon going to encounter a clan of Golith's who basically hate everyone who isn't Golith.
I remember back in past story times Sonjin was called 'knife ears' as a racial slur.
I think it would be interesting to have some slurs come from the Goliths (and if not them someone else later) and I was wondering what slurs you guys have used in the past? I'm coming up blank.

In Dragon Age, 'knife ears' was a slur for elves as well. I hadn't given it much thought, but I can imagine the goliath-like race in my own setting have some interesting derogatives. I think the literal translations for their words for humans shall be 'bunnies.' Dwarves shall be 'mounds' and elves shall be 'twigs.' Feel free to use 'em.

In Shadowrun people call -
Elves = 'dandelion eaters' Dwarves = 'stunties' or 'squats' Orks and Trolls = 'trog' Idiot = 'Gonk'

This is more of a slur for a class but in my world if you want to insult a spellcaster you call them a "feral". This is insulting because in my world a "feral" is a student of spellcasting who has not yet earned the title of his class. So to call a level 20 sorcerer a "feral" is just asking for a fight.
