IIRC didn't she start out as a foil for Herc? Almost an antagonist? I would have thought her more of a fighter/rogue. But then, I never liked Xena so I didn't watch much of that one, so my opinion in this is to be regarded with much salt.

I've never planned a 20 level path, and this is my method! But I do understand what you are saying, and I actually agree: characters should evolve through game play and they are far, far more than their backstory. Where I think we differ is in the degree of that evolution. As I mentioned, the...

Yep. I do this. But that's also because of my previously stated point about classes supposedly taking years of training to develop, et al. So if a character was created as a Fighter, them suddenly MC into Monk isn't cool with me. That said, if a character is always presented with this concept...

Well since I started this thread pointing out you misrepresenting another player, I already have. You have yet to acknowledge that you lied. So, after you!

Quite posting disingenuous posts and I wont' have to correct them. Lack of integrity is what derails threads. You can feel free to PM me, since you seem to want me so badly. I'll settle for you just showing a little integrity.

I wish that people who were attorneys would act with integrity.

Don't tell me not to respond. You are insulting my Player Agency! Or is it threatening my DM adjudication? Or just telling me how to play? Make up your mind. And I - if you read my first post to you - clearly delimited exactly what I was addressing, and in the last response clearly...

[/I][/FONT][/COLOR]Which has nothing to do with Odin, so my point remains. Which is pretty much standard. But it's worth noting that he only mentioned that there is nothing inherently within D&D that says that Odin must know, and only said this in response to your allegation, not as a part...

I'll let someone else rebut the other points, but I couldn't let this pass. At no point was this ever hinted or suggested in any way, shape, or form. In fact, should he meet a "real" worshiper of Odin, that just exploded an entire world of opportunity for roleplaying, exploration (trying to...

Eh. He's far from the worst offender in this thread. Give him a break. He's nowhere near max level.

Haha! I agree. But I'm enjoying the discussion, and it's great seeing everyone's take on the spectrum at hand!

Ok, you really need to let this go... Yes, words do mean something. And part of that meaning is always contextual. As a trained linguist and a former professional translator, I appreciate that words have meaning as much as anyone here. But the reality is that the meaning of words is always at...

As I said... Curiosity and conversation.

So I've been thinking about this for a little while now, and thought I'd throw it out there since I'm curious about how everyone on the board feels. Basically, I'm curious about where y'all draw the lines between a personalized setting and a homebrewed setting. I would hope that everyone would...
