[QUOTE="Man in the Funny Hat, post: 6816324, member: 32740"] Explain to the player that it is not necessary for a PC to commit suicide in order to be allowed to create a new PC. It is a valid point - and if this is what the player has been told then that should be enough explanation "not not"? Is that a typo? If he does enjoy his current class and PC then he should simply continue to do so. If he doesn't enjoy his current class and PC then he is free to create a new PC from those classes that he knew ahead of time were allowed. Even if he didn't know he can't come to you saying, "I want this new homebrew class and no other and refuse to accept the answer NO". Explain that to him if you haven't already. Then it sounds like HE HIMSELF has chosen to limit his participation to playing only that class of character which he already currently has. That's not your problem as much as it is HIS - unless he insists on having his way. And for that reason I'd say you're not obligated to do anything more. The player knows his choices and agreed to them already. If he can't handle that then the door to the outside world is always open to all players, yes? Is there actually a problem here? I mean, is the player actually throwing fits or something? Or are you just asking if disallowing a homebrew class into an existing game world is within your rights as DM? Hint: yes it is your right.
