I love goblins and lizardmen. Goblins because deranged little dudes running around is always a blast. Lizardmen because alligator people with melee weapons are the way I wish dinosaurs evolved instead of being birds.

Probably dwarves - they're not that exotic but I really vibe with them... for something more out there I'm a big fan of Yuan-Ti, they have spectacular lore and it's always tickled me that their most human-like form is basically considered low-born while the pure bloods are full on snakes.

Dwarves definitely take the cake for me though, big beards, stout, egalitarian, sometimes greedy - but always devout craftsfolk. As a big gender non-conforming man with a bigger beard and an intense love of my craftwork, I really vibe with them.

... I am a dwarf, and I'm digging a hole Diggy diggy hole, diggy diggy hole

Snake people is a decent answer, but dwarves are not typically considered monstrous.

I love dwarves too. If I had to pick another race it would be the Nac Mac Feegle from Discworld.

I couldn't even understand the text I was reading at first when they talked, but once I figured out the accent I loved reading them. Plus the only thing they're afraid of is lawyers.
