[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 5921331"] I think quoting a villain from Incredibles who was a jaded little psycho who couldn't play Silver Age comic's "little timmy" who always seemed to accompany the hero, probably isn't very accurate. Besides, that's not what I was saying anyway. First off, only player characters would have the [I]option[/I] to be "special", and perhaps a few NPCs of serious importance that the DM has made up. Plus, it's an [I]option[/I], giving your players the ability to make a LG Drow Paladin doesn't mean they'll actually make one. Drizzt really isn't that outlandish of a character(a gestalt MC fighter/ranger isn't that far out there) though [I]except[/I] in personality. Which is the realm of the player no matter what anyway. And that was mostly the point. Players should not be forced to be bound to stereotypical definitions of what their race usually is. There are always exceptions, especially in populations large enough to produce adventurers, and those exceptions are mostly likely the people who become adventurers. [/QUOTE]
