[QUOTE="Ednoc, post: 7075366, member: 6815535"] Wow. I already saw a lot of GM (Me included) say that it could be great for a player to fill a role, a class or who doesn't want a player to take a particular race or something... But in that case... WHAT A LIST. I think you have to consider what Nagol, ccs, DMMike and Jhaelen told you. I'm okay with all these methods, but what I think must be the more appriopriate is to talk directly to your GM. Ask him why he want YOU to do that and, of course, why ALL these particular settings. And try to negotiate some point. If you don't want to play this character, don't play it. Even if the solution to "die ft" seems legit, your GM could make some effort to not trying to kill you. (All NPCs aim other players, etc...) And if it's too obvious that you are trying to die, he could be angry agaisnt you. It would end that you both will be frustrated, you because you had to play a character that you don't want to play with and him, because he told you to play a particular character and all you wanted to do is dying to make another one. Ask him if this character is for plot issue. And if he can't play it as a NPC for some reason, maybe you are going to play this Paladin for one session only, and then, you'll be able to make another one. Who knows. TL;DR : Talk to your GM. That's the best advice I can give to you. [/QUOTE]
