[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8724929, member: 23751"] There were no paladins. The warrior classes were ranger, fighter and gladiator(which could be a new subclass). Wizards were there and the sorcerer class doesn't violate the lore at all. They would just be an innate defiler/preserver. There were clerics, templars(which fit warlock pretty well) and druids for the divine classes. Thieves(rogues) and bards existed. Bards were just thieves who used songs and tales as his tools. Clerics, druids worked different than the default classes. Rangers worked a bit differently, using the elemental cleric for spells when they hit high enough level. But that's not all that big of a deal, since rangers have a personal spell list now, they wouldn't be like clerics anyway, so no need to change them. I think for Dark Sun they might, since it really only affects paladin and bard, and they can make bard another kind of defiling wizard if they really want to. As an arcane caster, bards would defile or preserve anyway. Fair enough. So this rule would be in play for the setting. I would think it would be a background choice and have preserving feats attached to it. If you don't take it(or if you take a defiler background), plant life is harmed and you get some sort of bonus like upcasting or +1 to save DCs for your spells. No. Dark Sun must have some sort of Psion or it's not Dark Sun. Psions were waaaaaaaay too large a part of the setting. I expect it was the lack of a psion that initiated the change from Athasspace to Doomspace. Dark Sun dragons are not the dragons from the other setting books, and avangions are even more different. Yeah. The single largest hurdle is the requirement for a psion to exist or cause anger among fans like they just don't want to see. The rest is easy peasy. [/QUOTE]
