I could make a 40th level Cool Dude and not play him in a game, and what's the point? D&D is a game, and the game is inherently a social interactive story-telling. I mean, to an extent, of course.Regardless of the character I make--1st level pauper, 40th level prince--I want to be able to play the character in some sort of situation. I may have a character that is Super Cool Toy User, and I may have a character that is a Total Dud Without Toys, but I want to be able to play the character nonetheless. The presence or absence of toys is immaterial.So, it's about the... well, I don't know if you can generalize it by say "adventure," it's certainly not about the toys.</blockquote>
