[QUOTE="Oryan77, post: 5392787, member: 18701"] Correct. Correct. That's not what I was implying. Like you, I've also never played in a game where the DM was recreating an entire scenario that he stole from a movie, show, etc etc. But I've heard of it happening. I was just bringing it up because I feel it is similar to what I did experience; which was using a character from one source that I didn't feel belonged in the game. Partly because I thought I was supposed to be playing an adult Planescape game, yet this NPC was from a childrens Disney cartoon. At least Thor's hammer, or Drizzt is actual content from D&D. And as I said, I don't have a problem with that (although I'd not care to see Drizzt pop up in a non FR game, but it wouldn't cheapen the memory of the campaign like Mushu did). Really, it's a psychological thing. If you want to use content from a non D&D/RPG source, a simple name change & a slight tweak is all that is needed to give me the illusion that you are using your own unique content. That's all I ask. :D [/QUOTE]
