Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sunseeker" data-source="post: 7250956">In a way, true.  As humans we are capable of writing, and thusly understanding, things only so far outside of our own humanity.  But that wasn't really my point.Over the years, races (the more specific the better) have gained specific lore.  Specific elements to their existence that cause them to deviate from from the human perspective.  As humanoid races they have fundamental simiarlities.  They eat food, require shelter, create things, and thus, many of their drives are powered by these fundamental elements.Realistically if we encountered an alien race who required food to eat, air to breathe, water to drink, society to participate in, culture to be creative within; would they be that different from humans?  They might dress differently.  Believe differently, but at the end of the day they would still share some fundamental underpinnings due to the nature of their existence.Anyway, even if races fall into certain aspects of human existence, exemplifying some and diminishing others, my primary point was that the Paladin class has long presented a very specific bar a character needs to meet in order to be one.  Some races simply don't meet this bar.  Dragonborn however were designed to meet this bar.  Dragonborn were meant to be paladins.  They didn't just happen to be good at it by luck of their stats.  They were intended by the designers to be able to be good paladins.</blockquote>
