[QUOTE="Spatula, post: 1056897, member: 2198"] Normal D&D dragons don't exist on Athas. "Dragons" are actually high level defiler/psions.[b][/b]Miracles would be the purview of the divine casters... :)[b][/b]...and natural magic would be the druid's schtick. :) Magic works a particular way on Athas. It's one of the main features of the setting. Sorcerers aren't a part of it. It's not like in OA where you're assumed to be in a different part of the same D&D world... Athas is a completely different world.[b][/b]Uhhh... the Bard class is on page 15 of the conversion doc. So I guess those players would play a bard...[b][/b]You can do whatever you want. If you allow a paladin to multiclass, and then take more levels of paladin, have you destroyed D&D? And yet the D&D rules say you can't do that.[b][/B]If you go by the 3E books, you can't even play Bilbo in normal D&D... The hobbit culture that is very much a part of Bilbo's character doesn't exist, per the PHB. Perhaps you mean "good-natured halfling adventurer/thief," in which case there's nothing stopping you from playing one in DS. [/QUOTE]
