[QUOTE="Bolares, post: 8376503, member: 6790082"] I know you said you were going to an extreme, but I kind of have a problem with this idea. it gets unconfortably close to badwrongfun. A lot of people (me included) prefer to have some options that "don't justify their existence", so we can make them our own more easily. Roleplaying games don't need to have every nook and crany curated and justified, and D&D is big enough to handle a lot of thing differently. One of Eberron's principles is "If it exists in D&D it can exist in Eberron". That doesn't mean it has to be justified in the setting, but that Eberron is open enough for you to put it there somehow. Keith Baker even says that he prefers not to have every race and class justify their existance and impact the world's culture. Sometimes you just want to play a tiny human with hairy foot, and that's ok. [USER=7023887]@AcererakTriple6[/USER] I really like most of your takes in this site, and I think we agree on most things, but I don't understand why sometimes you take the stand of "this shouldn't exist" and in fact it's just something you don't like.
