It's quite a ginormous leap to think that their addition would suddenly turn D&D into Theatrix.Go easy on those absolutes, there, 'pardner. It may make it fun for you, but may not make it fun for everybody. I thoroughly enjoy having a limited resource of "karma" my PC can call upon when the situation demands. (Though this is a good argument for keeping them wholly optional; i.e., taste.)This sort of mechanic is also de rigeur in game design now, so D&D seems conspicuous in its omission of such, IMHO.I half wonder if the discussion about keeping multiclassing restrictions for monks and paladins was similar. I.e. "options not restrictions" vs. "But D&D has always been like that".</blockquote>
