[QUOTE="Shiroiken, post: 8313847, member: 6775477"] Something to take into consideration, which I still have a problem with now, is player knowledge vs character knowledge. I'm not talking about the usual "player knows what the DM said to another player, despite not being there," but rather modern knowledge. I've had characters try to do advanced mathematics to solve a particular problem, despite the fact that such knowledge doesn't exist in the setting. If you have characters coming from the modern age, such as your construction worker, he may have knowledge on creating dynamite and other explosives unknown of in the fantasy world. If you want them to be able to access this knowledge, cool, but it's definitely someone to think about. [/QUOTE]
