Message: <blockquote data-quote="Helldritch" data-source="post: 8149957" data-attributes="member: 6855114">I don't think it is a matter of denying the PCs any choice. They have aplenty in Oofta's game.1) There are such things as PC races and NPC races. They can be as mutually inclusive or exclusive as the campaign needs it to be.2) There is nothing wrong in not allowing a race or restrict the race's choice for PC. It is not because it is there, that it is good campaign wise. There are such things as consistency in story building.3) I am one of those DM that restricts players' choices up to a certain point. I often go on a case by case basis and your concept better be unique and interesting before I allow you a normally non player race. And even there, I am not the Mosesley Cantina type of DM. Be ready to be ostracized up to a certain point. 4) Although almost any races can be found in my campaigns, they will appear on a need to be there basis. Evil gods (or good ones) might port some from other dimensions and these either die at the hand of PC or will simply wink out of existence when their need to be there no longer suits the god's need as the god will port these to their respective dimension. This help out a lot in making the world believable. Where are all those giants comming from? When did this X tribe came into existence? The answer is either they were there all along or one god ported them in for some purpose known to him/her only.This also explains why evil god are also worshipped. To placate them and appease their anger. A pantheon might declare war on an other pantheon and their war will reflect back on the prime material plane where monsters will appear to plague the worshippers of the other pantheons. The Norse Pantheon might declare war on the Greek one and the worshippers of Zeus might see themselves besieged by trolls and various giants while the worshippers of the Norse will see Titans, Satyres, Harpies and Centaurs attack them. And in the meanwhile Ades and Hel might sent undead in the nights to attack worshippers of both sides just for fun of it.Mono pantheon worlds can be so boring compared to a multi pantheon one...</blockquote>
