[QUOTE="Dinkeldog, post: 1046364, member: 195"] I'm a great believer in the philosophy that this is a game and should be fun. Having said that, if the player wants to bring in a new character, let him bring in a new character. If the player still wants to play the old character, let him keep playing the old character. When I play, I tend to want to explore a character race/class combo and concept for a significant period of time. This is even more true if I've been asked by the DM to write a significant (page or longer) background about the character. If I've invested the time and thought, I tend to want to be able to see things through for a little bit, at least. Now, if I've played the character even a couple levels, that's sometimes enough to know that I'm not really enjoying it and would like something else. So, overall, I'd say that the option should be in the players' hands, and the DM needs to be flexible enough to let the players enjoy the game. [/QUOTE]
