Otherkind
When people get iron weapons, they get bold in the night and in the wilderness.
So all the otherkind met in council. The trolls and the dwarfs, the elves and their feuding cousins the orcs, the speaking bears, the packs of wise wolves and the great elks, the woodwomen, they all met to discuss it. The people burned forests to the ground and planted walls and cities where holy oaks had grown. The otherkind, always slow to change, waited too long, and then decided too little. Some wanted war, but of course there could be no war, and in the end there was no good solution.
The Shab-al-Hiri Roach is a dark comedy of manners, lampooning academia and asking players to answer a difficult question - are you willing to swallow a soul-eating telepathic insect bent on destroying human civilization?
No?
Even if it will get you tenure?
How far will you go to get what you want?

What's a 'trollbabe'? She's a 7-foot woman with horns, and she can kick your arse.
If you dig Vaughn Bodé and Robert Crumb, or Xena, Warrior Princess, you'll probably like Trollbabe.
