[QUOTE="wayne62682, post: 3442333, member: 40455"] I don't see any evidence of WotC pushing that you must be a member of an organization to take a PrC. You seem to be referring to the organization section which makes mention of such-and-such guild that fits a PrC referenced earlier, but this to me is a bone thrown to those who DO see PrCs as that way (Taking the work out of creating an organization from scratch) instead of saying "PrCs should have an attached organization). I'll cite an example: Daggerspell Mage/Shaper from Complete Adventurer. The fluff mentions an organization, but it's nowhere listed as a requirement for entry to the class, thus has no bearing in-game except if the DM takes fluff and applies it to the mechanics. This, to me, says that they do not WANT this class to be part of an organization. However, later on the book has information on the Daggerspell Guild or whatever it's called. This to me is more of a "We know a lot of people feel PrCs should have an organization alongside it to help them integrate it into their games, so here's one you can just drop into your campaign" than a "We feel PrCs should have an organization attached to it, so we're giving you one that you can just drop into your campaign" I would say more on the matter but it goes close to the "My opinion on how things *should* be" area.
