There won't be any trains or train tracks in the campaign just because of this silly character concept but I would certainly allow it.  We just started a new Dragon Age campaign last week and one player created an Avar warrior named Rosco. He has a faithful hunting dog companion named Flash. <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /> The character is effective in his role as a warrior and it amuses the player. Where is the harm in this? Heck who knows, at some point in the campaign the players may cross paths with a corrupt Duke and end up encountering some of his boys. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> I guess my point is that I don't treat the game as serious business and thus do not stomp on a player's fun as long as it does not stomp on anyone else's.</blockquote>
