Where in 3-3.5 edition does it say that humans, elves, dwarves, etc. are subtypes? I looked in the monster manuals and didn't find any examples. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 01:40, March 3, 2018 (UTC)


 * Did you look in the Monster Manuals? or the PHB? Because the dwarf entry in MMv.3.5 lists dwarf as a subtype. The same goes for the elf entry and the halfling entry and the gnome entry. I only added ones to the list that are clearly marked as such in the 3e and v.3.5 Monster Manuals. They are not listed like that whenever a race is talked about as a playable race, only if listed as a monster. But almost every single playable race is. ~ Lhynard (talk) 01:46, March 3, 2018 (UTC)


 * Ah, I think I see the problem. Using dwarf as an example, you are looking at the top of page 91 in the MMv3.5 were it shows it in parentheses. I was looking at the list of types and subtypes on page 5 where it shows a list of Humanoid types, including dwarves, but clearly not as subtypes in parentheses. Which do you think is correct?
 * Another question: Since we have added edition to the type categories (like Category:Humanoids (3e)), do we need to do the same for subtypes/keywords/tags (3e/4e/5e respectively)? &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 02:02, March 3, 2018 (UTC)
