[QUOTE="Coroc, post: 7170430, member: 6895991"] Lylandra, you are evading, your base principle is not so wrong as e.g. any of the giant creatures be it Spiders Dragons or even giants would break the rules of biophysics. But where do you start and where do you stop? Imagine you are playing your strength 20 halfling barbarian great weapon master (Where does this sword go with the halfling as always my reaction when i saw gnomes with legendary weapons in WoW).. ok but i'm getting slightly of Topic so imagine your halfling is attacked by a pixie warrior and the dm rolls 1d12 +10 damage. you ask him why this Little pixie warrior ould do that sort of damage if it is Magic mayhap, but the dm answers oh no ist just so this pixie got a strength of 30 for a +10 and is wielding a greataxe. So would that still fit into your ist a game world without limits or would you say that is ridiculous i could accept that this damage came from a Magic effect but not from natural biological strength and impossible physics that is hard for me to imagine. I like emersion into my games be it as a dm or a player, and some things are easyer to handwave, maybe becausethere is some conditioning e.g. you hear about giants in a fairytale and later on you see them in some movie so it is ok. But the only conditioning you get concerning Little things being overly strong is from some grotesque cartoons, and i prefer to envision my games like Lord of the rings or game of thrones but not World of Warcraft the movie.
