[QUOTE="MechaPilot, post: 7000760, member: 82779"] No D&D alignments (though I will allow the Palladium ones). Also, tell me what your character's motivations and goals are: that's stuff I can actually use. If you want to have a defined code of conduct you live by, then write one up. No tracking food or ammo unless it's really important to do so. I hate tracking that fiddly crap, and I'm a tax accountant. I deem it to be immaterial according my GADMP (Generally Accepted Dungeon-Mastering Principles). :p No Hobbits (by any name). If you want to play a little person then play one. Let your inner Dinklage run wild. You don't need a race to do that. No real-world monotheistic religions exist in game. I don't need real-world religious issues coming up at the table, and I don't want to have to justify departing from the real-world versions of those religions for the sake of the story, or of setting continuity. No sex "on-screen." If you want your character to visit a brothel. Great. Have at it. Just don't expect me to roleplay or otherwise describe it any more than simply saying "you have a good time and spend X gold in the process." No +X weapons or armor. If you want a magic item I will make it do magical stuff in lieu of granting number porn to your AC or attack rolls. No evil characters unless you can prove your maturity to me beforehand. And no, there isn't a specific thing you can do to prove it. It's based on my evaluation of how you've acted over time. Evil characters can be great, when they're not chaotic stupid. If you can't come up with convincing reason why your evil character would be working with a group of non-evil characters, then you can't play it. No multiclassing without explaining it. How did your character become a fighter/paladin/rogue/wizard? If it doesn't seem plausible, you can't play it. [/QUOTE]
