Of course it'll be a quirky chungus female type autist, which just means "doesn't care about social conventions like being polite" and "has an obsessive hobby."
It'll skip all the not-fun autist conditions of course, like the ones men have. You know, completely skipping hygiene due to that social convention disregard, eating the same thing for every single meal, hulk out retard strength, and needing to be compressed to calm down.
Like, a low functional autist would be a really unique character for any world. But they wouldn't dare accurately portray that, whether its the Chris-chan type mid-low ones or the "basically a feral animal" extremely low ones. Its always the version girls on tiktok claim to have.
I actually played a 3 INT/ YES STR half ogre in my early d&d games. I pretty much treated the roleplaying as a cross between zany fantasy surrealism and the average COPS episode.
A good friend of mine played an all-in grappler with retardism (literally a caveman) in a campaign that I ran. It sparked so many ridiculous moments that I still smile fondly remembering it years later. A favorite was still him trying a jump check to leap from their moving aircraft that was in the middle of a dogfight to try and tackle the enemy aircraft all because he was too stupid to understand physics, and then he rolls a nat 20 on the check, passes the grab check to get hold of the other craft once he's there, and then proceeds to rip the door off, go inside, and beat the enemy crew to death.
"This jail wall?"
"Yes, but there's no door."
"Me go through wall."
"There's no door..."
"Me go through wall."
"Roll strength check."
