[QUOTE="Jago, post: 6914130, member: 6855130"] Honestly again, both are quite appropriate: Barbarian does not just mean super savage warrior, and can be played in a plethora of ways: [I]Mercenari, [/I]Noble Guard, duelist, performer, shamanistic leader, follower of the Old Gods, Templar of The Maker, etc., etc., etc. Your rage can be religious fervor, supreme focus and concentration, pure panache and [I]joie de vivre [/I]to the point of being carefree about all danger, and so on. And having 2 Sorcerers from 2 different backgrounds and 2 different Archetypes, with their own spells and metamagics and so on, can be played completely differently. Not to mention the Low-Magic doesn't mean magic is any less powerful, just that spellcasters are much more rare, meaning Sorcerers are [I]super[/I] special. Any caster is, essentially. It all boils down to that if you want to play, I'm more than happy to have you and any character concept you'd like. If you are restricting yourself to certain classes out of a desire to "catch 'em all" so to speak, I am 100% happy to find a way to work with those restrictions to create a character [I]you[/I] want to play. Again, we are building the Setting together: nothing is set in marble, so if you feel your concept does not feel "all that appropriate" for this setting, [I]change the setting[/I]. You want to include some refuge of Dwarves in the mountains who refuse to join the City-States are quite happy with their independent, archaic ways? We can do it. You want to have like a gladiatorial style arena where your character is a renown performer due to his ferocity? We can do it. You want to play a Sorcerer? We can do it. [/QUOTE]
