[QUOTE="0bsolete, post: 3869067, member: 56795"] I've made a decision finally in regards to this subject. I am going to develop a high-magic campaign setting where the logic the players use also applies to the rest of the world, explain this to them clearly, and then see if they like it that way or would prefer it to revert back to the original. Basically, the other GM's of the group allow players such as that, but NPC's are fairly normal, mainstream gygaxian type NPC's. I figure it might be interesting for the party to see a group of drow in the street armed to the teeth, have the party attack them because drow NPC's are always evil, and then get thrown in jail for racism and murder of innocents. Now, I do note I am not doing this to get back at the players. They are used to a Forgotten Realms-esque world, with high fantasy characters which grates on me. I tried doing a fairly by the DMG setting and forcing that one the players which they fought back against. Now I'm going to try the alternative and see if they actually enjoy a high-fantasy world where racism is light at best and those with celestial and demonic and dragonic blood walk into the market and buy some beef and bread for patty melts and where half-fiends are just mistrusted instead of feared.
