[QUOTE="Dandu, post: 5436429, member: 85158"] You referred to it as being very immature a while ago, and I was using humor to point out that a lot of the stuff normally associated with immaturity is not present in this character, unlike say, a monk who uses his very long penis as a reach weapon. (Yes, I have actually been at a table where this has happened. No, I did not return.) Wait... how is creating a multclassed Dwarf Ranger/Monk attempting to make play revolve around me? Furthermore, how can you say the character is both wildly inappropriate to the setting and the theme of the game when you acknowledge that, at the same time, the appropriateness depends on the kind of game? I get that the name "Fistbeard Beardfist" is not for everyone, nor is the idea of a monk hitting people with his beard ala Chuck Norris... but that's pure fluff. Call the dwarf "Durand Macenand IV" if you want, and call him a drunken boxer. Mechanically, he is the same character. Do you have an issue with Durand Macehand IV, Dwarf delver and master of unarmed combat, who fights to keep the dwarf kingdoms of the Underdark free from the drow, and rid the dwarven lands above ground form the scourge of the orcish horde? And you, sir, are no Ghandi, though that does not mean you are a bad person. [/QUOTE]
