The only freedom the PCs basically have is that they can choose their railroad (5 room dungeon). But then, I think dungeons are the worst environment for sandbox games anyway. __________________ Everything about RPGs is subjective, so everything I say about them is I my opinion and not hard facts Having a backstory is good. Using this backstory in game is better. And for that you need background skills. 4E, the game where you play HSMFOS Heroic Only good, or at least unaligned adventurers are supported and no monster you can fight is good aligned. Super- The PCs become masters in any skill automatically and it is impossible for them to be bad at a mundane task Mutants Compared to NPCs of the same strength, PCs poses a ungodly amount of HP and can withstand huge mountains of punishment. That or they can spontaneously regenerate wounds. From Outer Space Yet despite no matter how powerful the PCs become, they can never do anything special what the "natives" (=NPCs) can do like animating a skeleton.
