In my personal opinion, spriggans shouldn’t be rewritten. I believe that not all magics need their own personal golem race. Open for a debate.

who cares why are we thinking about this in terms of attracting players anyway?
how many balrogs did they mention in the rings trilogy? even though they’re ostensibly maiar corrupted by service to melkor and they have a bunch of deep lore and they come up in the silmarils, to 99% of people familiar with the mythos, they’re the big fire demon that fought gandalf. and they’re better that way. nobody needs to see like 20 active players on the same CA to be convinced by that creature or to enjoy rping with someone. people enjoy variety and creativity more than they value one ca race having more players, and you have to remember for the majority of the playerbase lotc is their personal adventure, they don’t know or care about how many people play muyakelgs or spriggans, but encountering one gives an opportunity for some interesting rp
you’re regurgitating seventhcircle’s language about “activity” but all that really does is rig the system in favor of **** like izkuthii, zar’ei and striga, which cast a broad net by having literally no drawbacks to rping, and have basically no identity other than as combat augmented ca races. I get the argument that spriggans act the same way as golems, but when you can convince me that the three aforementioned races act any differently I’ll believe you’re being wholehearted. Until then, what I’m really hearing is someone capitalizing on the mass shelfing to try and push their own unfounded opinions on the canon
