There isn't a poster on EnWorld that I more consistently disagree with. Change for the sake of change? What about complaining for the sake of complaining?Cool, most people don't, you're in the minority here.A proud warrior race isn't the same thing as a backwoods swamp-dwelling barbarian tribe.Oh, really? Is that why according to the fluff you're rallying against, dragonborn make good paladins? The dragonborn paladin in my game is such an anti-hero; he's always defending the weak, smiting demons, and bringing foes to justice. You can tell he's an anti-hero because he looks like a lizard.You can't change core fluff, then complain that core fluff is wrong. Core D&D says the God of Justice is a dragon. Dragon men follow him and are quoted in the fluff as making excellent paladins. It doesn't matter if they're too fat and tailless for your taste, that's the way it is until you change it.Nothing wrong with them being savage mercs in your game, but that's not how they're written, and no matter how many times you say it, it's not going to come true.</blockquote>
