[QUOTE="Sound of Azure, post: 3698522, member: 40749"] I think you're looking at certain comments though only one angle, here. I would object to a situation where my character could not have access to the martial disciplines while NPCs were allowed to. I don't object because it's unbalanced in the hands NPCs, but because it's a fun and interesting option that is being denied to a character that may otherwise be capable of doing such a thing. If there's an in-game (say, cultural) reason people like the PCs couldn't use the Bo9S stuff, that's one thing. For me, it would kind of suck to have a situation where I said "Hey DM, what that guy did was great! I'd like my character to find someone to teach him how to fight like that!", and for him to say "Nope, it's NPC only." So, it's not that it's balanced in PC hands, and not balanced in NPC hands. (To me) It's that it's a situation where only one side has particular tools available, which could cause some resentment. [/QUOTE]
