orcs, now not to be confused i mean orcs and is the blizzardian variety.
that means they can wipe their own asses, in contrast to the Tolkienian orcs "orks" from the WH universes(universi?).
the primal, honorable, savage-but-noble and tribal orcs.
other then that yeah dwarves.

First off, lol at the fact that two people got warnings for one-word posts. Always amusing. Second, my favorite fantasy race is elves. But if I can be more specific, I like the drow. Maybe I read a few too many R.A. Salvatore novels, but I find the drow entertaining; they have an interesting hierarchy, and despite being pure evil some of their policies are very efficient. All in all, they're just my favorite, but I enjoy normal elves too, mostly because they're playable in most fantasy RPG's.

Orks is da best!

Orkses is never defeated in battle. If we win we win, if we die we die fighting so it don't count. If we runs for it we don't die neither, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!

DAT'S RIGHT GOOD THINK LAD!

OT: I don't really have a favorite race. While I'm certainly fond of plenty (generally the more 'barbaric' and less human races) and there are some I almost dislike (elves, halflings/hobbits, gnomes), there are none that stick out above all others.

I love all races, so long as they fight for me in my eternal quest for world/plane domination.

i voted other because the Race that is my favorite does not exist yet outside of my personal novel i have yet to start writing. it involves creatures that look almost exactly like human, but they are entirely female, and bleed gold/silver blood. i cant reveal much more. though i hope one day my novel is published and you all get a chance to read about them.

I'd have to go with the dwarves myself. They have epic loot, they can make epic loot, they're strong, they have the best booze, and they have the best fortresses. Oh, and they specialize in dragon-slaying, need I say more?

(tolkienesque, btw)

Dwarves cause I dig the whole bearded warrior drunkard artisan ass kicking bit. Furry races like Taurens, worgens, minotaurs, kitsune, etc etc cause I like furries. **shrug**

Elves. Dark ones to be more precise.
Though the tieflings in NWN2 were awesome.

I looked at poll results...
28,5% (and rising) for elves? For ELVES?!?!
*inhale*
...
*exhale*
Must... not... go... RWAAARGH!!!
Kill! Kill them all! Cut of their ears and make a necklace! Pull out their eyes and put in drink! Mutilate! Dismember! Torture in unimaginable ways 'till they are sorry Tolkien ever brought such abominations as them into general understanding of what an "elf" is!
Ehm...

I guess it's quite obvious which race is NOT my favorite. They are essential to existence of my favorite fictional organization - I.R.E.P. (Institution for Regulation of Elven Population)!
Join me, brothers and sisters! Join me in my quest to rid (fan)fiction of the narcissism and douchebaginess that is "elf"! Join me in my effort to cleanse this world!

Edit: Drow are somewhat acceptable since they also enjoy killing our main enemies. Kill and let kill I guess :)

Mine: sylvari from GW2. They have such a unique outlook on life, and on love in particular. It comes the closest to my own of any fantasy race, so they hold a special place in my heart for that reason.

Plus, they look completely awesome.

Pixie - Something about a tiny winged combatant fighting against the odds appeals to me. I loved playing one in D&D 3.5 and since then they've become my favorite fantasy race in general.

Pixies are like that mosquito that you couldn't kill...they represent Rocky vs Drago, David vs Goliath in my mind.

Humans. I like them because of their balance between intelligence and lithe strength. And because the elven archers are cowards. Besides them, dragons are awesome, as well as furries of all kinds.

Elves. Definitely elves. Cause they're, you know, elves.

Also dragons and vampires. Because they're, you know, dragons, and vampires.

Elves.

Because, well, elves.

They're the Mary Sue of fantasy races. I know I should be a smug hipster and pretend that I don't love them, but I just can't help it.

Orcs,not because i like the rage and brute force of them
I prefer the honor and wise Orcs, (WOW),DND,spellforce) over the brutish and dumb Orcs of Tolkien's novels.
As a dungeon master the Orcs in my world always have an honor code,they are not evil but they are hostile to words outsiders and chaotic in nature.

I find your usage racial stereotyping disgraceful, but i guess i can live with it
