[QUOTE="Jester David, post: 6660792, member: 37579"] How likely is that to happen? If you're playing in a Dragonlance game it is almost certainly being run by an old school Dragonlance fan from back in the day, who can help differentiate the flavour. Even then, there are no psionics in Dragonlance so the mystic class wouldn't be an option. I doubt the fans of every other world would be happy getting Dragonlance flavour all over their class. "Chaos" means nothing in Eberron. Every campaign setting should make the classes their own, reflavouring as needed. WotC cannot and should not have to mark certain names as "off limits" just because they were used as specialty classes in campaign settings. They know them as a black-robed Wizard of High Sorcerery, not a 5th level Lawful Evil Necromancer wizard. They know them as a priest of Paladine, not a level 3 light domain cleric. There wasn't a meeting where everyone said "okay, we used to call them magic users and then sorcerers, now we're going to call them wizards." [/QUOTE]
