[QUOTE="Merlion, post: 769485, member: 10397"] If I was you I'd talk to the DM about ignoring the alignment restrictions as well as most or all of them are really based on certain perspectives. theres no real reason why a barbarian cant be lawful...a barbarian is just a warrior from a "primitive" culture. in fact many such cultures are quite bound by rules and traditions. Likewise as I have said so many times before the only "lawful" thing about monks is they are highly discplined. I dont see why having one "lawful" personality trait as part of a classes nature should require an alignment restriction. By the same reasoning as things are presented in the PHB, wizards should most definitly have to be Lawful and it could easily be said that Sorcerers should HAVE to be Chaotic or at least be prohibited from being Lawful...but their not. the alignment restrictions are mostly holdovers from the early days of DnD...that and flavour. but I feel flavour should be determined on a campaign by campaign basis [/QUOTE]
