Only the Lonely: Why We Demand Official Product

A humancentric setting would be one where the average person didn't believe aliens existed.

I see "humanocentric" as meaning all the struggle, strife, and epic stories are told from the human point of view.

Not that other races do or don't exist.

DMs don't have to justify it explain anything.

They might have a hidden menace plot so revealing the reason why a player can't be XYZ ruins the bug reveal. Sure feel free to ask but if u say no I don't feel like elaborating on it.

Last campaign I played DM said no evil races. Didn't ask why assumed he was referring to Drive, Tieflings and various humanoids.

Hell I had a DM ban us from even reading the Birthright boxed set or even touch it. He hid tickets to the midnight screening of The Phantom Menace.

That reason can be completely arbitrary. DM should be some what enthusiastic about what they want to run.

At the end of the day I'm inviting you to play. Right now you can okay anything in the phb and Midgard books, no you can't play a githyanki.

...but you didn't say I can't play a githzerai!

RULES LAWYERING FTW !!!!111!!!!!

You'll have to pry my player entitlement from my cold, dead, githzerai hands.

Heh they're not in the Midgard material so you can't play them either.

There's some races I prefer players not to have due to the theme. There's very few Elves in Midgard and in Nuria I would prefer a Gnolls, Minotaur, Ravenfolk, Werelion. Would also prefer no half vampires but you might be able to talk me into it.

Those races were going to be used more if they picked a different part of the world. If the pucked Zobeck gear/warforged cycle in Southland stuff cycles out.

What if I wanted to play a CN half Weretiger, half forest gnome, Lore Bard grappler in a hot pink luchidor mask, who plays the bagpipes skyclad? I spent a long time on that character...

You sir are playing roshambo with my canon-given right to play whatever I feel like in any campaign and any setting without reference to theme or party composition. Shame on you.

This is true I am a bad bad person.

I'll file your concerns in my don't give a crap folder.

See this just sounds like railroading under a different name. Do your players have any choices at all? Or only a list of options that you "allow"?

How do you look at that and come to the opinion that it's railroading? All I see is that @Oofta created a game situation and the players made choices and decisions that allowed one to become King. Nothing I see in there implies that they were forced into anything.
