[QUOTE="aarduini, post: 6815472, member: 61920"] I agree with this whole heartedly There are so many things wrong with this statement its not even funny. This thread started with you attacking me saying I'm making stuff up, and you were very condescending about it. I've countered your every statement with direct quotes from the rule books yet you still say i'm not following the material. Your theory doesn't work because 1) Dragonborn still exist in the realms and were not sent back to Abeir. There is a great novel that just came out that talks about that. You should read it. I have. 2) The influx of Genasi was not from the collision of Abeir. Perhaps if you read the book I quoted or the 4th edition campaign guide you would understand that. It doesn't get more canon than the officially released campaign guides. This is your interpretation. There is no material to support that interpretation; in fact, the material contradicts it. I was merely expressing my desire to make an AL Genasi character with a flavorful background, which is why I picked Calimshan, and I wanted him to be able to have a flaming sword attack or a thunder sword attack because it would be extremely cool! Not because I was min/maxing. My group laughed when that was said. I am the most pro story guy in the Bay Area i'll bet. Had you chosen your words differently, you would not be getting the focused attention on this thread that you are. You called it constructive criticism earlier. There was nothing constructive about it. It was just hateful, condescending blather with no basis of truth, and THAT is why I thank the Admins for not counting you among their number.
