My cool two-weapon fighter or great weapon fighter or sword & board fighter....what do you mean 'you lost an arm'? This doesn't make me think, 'What an interesting development; I wonder how this guy will adapt to this setback?'It makes me think, 'This PC now doesn't work any more. I'll retire him to The Home For Unwanted Adventurers and roll up a new PC that does work!'I put a lot of work into my PCs, both fluff and crunch. I hate to see that go to waste on a random roll.If I want to play a one-armed swordsman, it will be part of my backstory.</blockquote>
