[QUOTE="SableWyvern, post: 9675376, member: 1008"] Again, almost every post I read from you is telling me otherwise. You absolutely have said things "like it" even if you haven't literally used the words I did. Declaring what? I absolutely do have right of veto for anything that goes into a game I run. I had a player ask if they could play an alien in an X-Com game I was prepping for. I thought about it, and then let them know that the answer was no. There was no feasible way to adjust the game, in a way that I would be happy with, to allow for an alien PC. And, at the end of the day, it turned out that the player in question wasn't really all that interested in the game in the first place. They were looking for something different to pique their interest, but they almost certainly would have dropped out anyway, even if I'd said yes to the alien. I was right to say no, they elected not to participate at all, and they rejoined us later when I was running a game more to their liking. Everyone was better off. Sure. I will always work with my players; if I didn't, I wouldn't have any. But the final say in a game I run rests with me. [/QUOTE]
