Message: <blockquote data-quote="Hawk Diesel" data-source="post: 7834971" data-attributes="member: 59848">A lot of the ones I do allow are usually framed in a way that stays away from realism. For example, bigotry and racism may exist between actual races (elves, dwarves, ect) but it is not ok to be represented any more realistically than that. Also, many of the others I chose are ok as a tool for the DM to make compelling villains or struggles that the players may need to overcome, but not so cool for the players to use or act on. I don't want a game where the players engage in slaughter of sentient creatures or attempting/advocating for genocide. But even then, as the DM there are lines that I will not cross. My villain are not engaging in rape, pedophilia, and slavery in general is not generally a part of my game worlds. While I am an adult and play with other adults, there are themes that I don't want in a game that is meant to be fun or escapist. I have no interest in resurrecting F.A.T.A.L.This may have something to do with me being a child therapist who works for the department of children and family services. Those themes are just too real and triggering for me.</blockquote>
