I certainly wouldn't go in with proposals for alternate rules about character origins, etc. You say that you've always been the  DM but now your friend is willing to give it a try. Great - then let them! Especially as a novice DM, they have plenty on their plate with trying to run a game for the first time. Don't make them also have to navigate competing demands for special rules.This kind of feels like you, the veteran, are trying to do some backseat DMing.To quote Elsa: "let it go."</blockquote>
