[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 8024720, member: 63508"] I meant that thereshould be a full attempt to mimic reality or no attempt at all. Much how the XGTE samurai is just a tough fighter with a bonus skill and special attack. The only link to Asia or Japan is the name. You could easily play the XGTE samurai as a European or African knight as it is just a noble fighter with fighting spirit. The name is the only Asian or Japanese part of it. No need to mimic real gurus and yogi and just make a monk sub-class of Dhalsim from Street Fighter with stretchy arms and teleportation. Make a generic fox people halfling clones instead of making a full race to mimic kitsune and huli jing. Elephants with fireball cannons. Lu Bu but a demon. A whole monster race of Gokus. Either go with real history, culture, and mythology or divorce yourself from reality completely. Youhave to check your work either way. However doing it halfway seems more dangerous than what it is worth. [/QUOTE]
