It's not just your game. You do not and should not have all the power as DM….billd91HMM bill are you saying you want to play the red baron when the other players and DM are playing cowboys and Indians? Some Dms including me have going tired even back in the days Hong enjoyed of saying I the Dm. My world has this that and one other thing.  And then having a player want to bring in Superman to a cops and robber game. And player batting their pretty eyelashes and say please oh please mr dm can I have superman. He has this cool power and that cool power and I won’t use my x-ray vision. Then as soon as the DM back is turn. Superman is scoping out the girls locker room, and for out of no where is were a ring of spell turning and has a kryptonite proof plate mail. And innocently ask why didn’t I remember all the cool stuff. Sorry. No.I am the Dm. If I don’t have the splat book and I feeling nice I may let you run your super duper spew splat book character. But I reserve the final nay and final no that your cool super duper character no longer fits. Thanks for the memories but roll up a new character according to the core rules.For example a drizzit lover wanted to play a drow imc. I told her yes…BUT the neck tie party would begin immediately if she was discovered on wood elves lands. And it would be up to the party to save her.The dm sets the limits. Aka Core or the door. Core and wotc, or enter your favor splat books here. When a player whines to bend the rules my xp has proven bad idea.</blockquote>
