[QUOTE="Edena_of_Neith, post: 3546026, member: 2020"] In the reality of a human dominated world (much less a world with places like Menibone) where is the fun in playing a chaotic good character? Might makes right, the ruthless dominate, laws favor the powerful, life is worthless, and warriors rule the day. This is the situation on Aebrinis, Athas, Krynn, and Oerth. It is the rule over most of Toril. It is the rule in Wildspace. It is absolutely the rule in Lankhmar (sp?) and in Hyboria. The chaotic good character can always be a rebel, but the powers that be have the bigger swords. Humans do not like elves. Humans, do not like humans, much less elves! Humans, have this bad tendency to kill elves on sight, or throw them in the arena, or crucify them along the road. This is the rule over vast parts of Aebrinis, all of Athas, goodly parts of Krynn, and many parts of Toril. In Ravenloft, it is universal. And I doubt elves are going to be highly looked on in Lankhmar or Hyboria. But the elf in question stands out as ... an elf. He can't help it. It's hard to hide it. His aura and appearance, mannerisms and personality, give him away. The drow face this same problem, only the flip side of the coin. [/QUOTE]
