[QUOTE="Salamandyr, post: 7267599, member: 40233"] I find myself in agreement with the way [MENTION=6778044]Ilbranteloth[/MENTION] does things. Not every character class has to represent a "job" somebody can have in the D&D universe. We don't need Orders of Paladins to have paladins. We just need one guy (the PC) the gods have chosen to bless with those kinds of powers. We don't need tribes of BearBarians; we just need one guy (the PC) who has made a vision quest to the mountaintop to request the blessing of the Bear spirits. Maybe not every priest is a cleric, but the PC is the once in a lifetime holy scion blessed with the powers of the gods. Yeah...fighters are going to exist, but there might be only one Champion. Do sorcerors need to be common? Gandalf was a wizard and Radagast was a druid but they were both Wizards. One can play the D&D game entirely RAW and [I]still[/I] keep control of the world, as long as one reinforces the idea that PC's are [I]exceptions[/I] even when they're playing as classic a concept as the paladin or cleric.
