Though I do like to make all choices equally as valid...For most campaigns, that's not really acceptable.FR is a smidgen over the line of what the Core Rules generally allow. Not game-shatteringly....nothing in FR will make the game unplayable...but it's enough to make things 'easy choices' or 'no-brainers'. AU is more significantly over the line, but it assumes you won't be using the Core Rules anyway. AU is close to the realm of game-shatteringly, in a few cases. But if played with at it's own level, it's perfectly fine. It would make your halfling rogue a bit irked to see a quickling faen akashic with two feats at first level, though....the halfling rogue is just WEAKER by comparison.But in FR, that halfling rogue may just have an extra +2/+2, or other minor something, that the GH halfling rogue doesn't.Which is why I allow in things on only a case-by-case basis. Still, I'm generous. I always think that no matter how good the PC's roll and how great their combos are, I can challenge them...it's just about thinking bigger and tougher than them. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
