Message: <blockquote data-quote="Herpes Cineplex" data-source="post: 1673889" data-attributes="member: 16936">The first, only, and most important entry on my universal permaban list is:Lone wolf characters.  These are the ones who have no real past, no real future, no interest in the other PCs, no common interests with the other PCs, no intention of being friends with or working with the other PCs, and nothing that they particularly care about.  Hand me a character that looks like that, and I'll hand it right back to you and tell you to try again.  I'm not interested in trying to find ways to wedge that character into a group, and I'm not willing to deal with the consequences of that character not fitting into the group, so I'm not going to let it show up in the game.Fortunately, since we all started collaborating during character creation and coming up with characters that will group together well in the first place, we haven't had too many lone wolves.The only D&D-specific blanket prohibition I have is that anyone who wants to go into a prestige class of some kind has to give me advance warning (at least 1-2 levels before planning to take it, and preferably more) so I can look it over and decide whether I want to include it or not.  And honestly, if I could even count on the majority of PrCs being well-designed, fairly balanced, and interesting, I might not even worry about it.  But so many PrCs are so bad (in my opinion, obviously) that I just don't allow any of them in my game until I've checked 'em out.--i've got stuff i don't like, but i handle them case-by-caseryan</blockquote>
