[QUOTE="JeffB, post: 4776701, member: 518"] I'm up front about house rules-have to be. Running my 4E Nentir Vale game last year (currently not gaming though for life reaaons) my group knows I'm very much a grog, and they also have similar tastes. They didn't want anything to do with Dragonborn, and while I've warmed up to Tieflings (the 4E version, I cannot stand prior versions), not a one has been desired as a PC, nor did the group encounter any. So they rpetty much don't exist either. In my homebrew world (regardless of edition or even system- I used it for RQ, T&T and other things at times), there are no dragonborn, eladrin, 1/2 races of any kind (including elves), and gnomes/halflings are extremely rare. Its very S&S and humano-centric. Generally though I tend to play with people of similar mind/tastes and I don't tolerate power/character build gamers- thats my goal anyways :D I learned to avoid those kinds of players when I was in junior high. When 3E came out I had a couple players like that and I bowed out after awhile- they sucked all the fun out of the thing trying to game the system. Maybe thats the O/AD&D 70s influence, or just makes me a control freak, but I like a certain style of game, and if I'm running it/doing all the work, I want to provide the kind of world I enjoy making/creating. :shrug: [/QUOTE]
