Have you added any restrictions as to what class/background they can be?DM: Yes, you can play a wood elf, and they can have any class and background.Player: So, all 11 classes are available for me to play? All their paths? All backgrounds?DM: Yes, yes and yes. You can even tweak your background in any way you want within the parameters set in the background section of the PHB. You can even create your own from scratch, but I'll need to approve it if you do.Player: Do you allow multiclassing and feats?DM: Yes to both.Player: Okay, my PC is a female wood elf rogue 1/monk 2 (you said we'd be starting at level 3). She has the 'spy' variant of the 'criminal' background. Is that all okay?DM: Solid.Player: Her backstory is...*several pages worth of detailed story, intertwining published lore, adventure hooks specific to this adventure, and stuff I made up that doesn't contradict any of the other sources*...and she was taught her various abilities by various individuals over 5 decades or so.DM: Brilliant! I applaud the effort you've gone to. Er...which monastery did she attend?Player: Monastery? In the High Forest, the trees are our monastery. We live a disciplined, ascetic lifestyle when training to be Lachrymae Shaverash!DM: Yeah, very poetic, but which monastery?Player: There was no actual monastery; the High Forest isn't famous for its buildings.DM: How dare you come to my table with such a fluffless, Frankenstein creation! Get out of my house!</blockquote>
