[QUOTE="prosfilaes, post: 7997807, member: 40166"] Why should a PC not be beholden to what is normal for the world? There's a lot of games where you get random race or class, or random stats which limit choices of race or class. There may be a few games where you can play anything, but D&D and friends are not one of them; the options are quite limited, and you will not get to play a warforged artificer in most games, much less a k'kree technomancer. I don't see why removing dwarf wizards from the table is not okay, but removing warforged, or gunslingers, or dragons as a PC choice is okay. That's like saying that letting elves live to a thousand must mean that they overrun the world. Dwarves couldn't be wizards in any edition of D&D prior to 3rd Edition, so how did they survive in Krynn and Greyhawk and Forgotten Realms? How did the halflings and humans and dwarves survive in the LotR, since IIRC, none of those races had wizards? [/QUOTE]
