Message: <blockquote data-quote="SSquirrel" data-source="post: 5768440" data-attributes="member: 5202">Dragonborn just replaced the Dray from Dark Sun.  Also, Dark Sun had no Divine classes.  There was a sidebar reminding you the DM was allowed to overrule that and do what they wanted w/their game, which is why our Dark Sun game had a Cleric and Paladin of Pelor, as well as later a Monk who had multied into a Divine class who also worshiped Pelor.  Amusingly enough, that group sat around the table so you could even split us into Team Pelor and Team Heathen <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Look at the settings they released for 4E tho.  You have FR (and it's Neverwinter subsidiary) that are both pretty all-inclusive settings, so having Dragonborn and Tieflings isn't really a big deal.  You have Eberron, which from the start has been a "if it has a place in D&D, it can have a place in Eberron" setting.  You had Dark Sun, which they did place restrictions to keep things closer to flavor.  Replace Half Giants w/Goliaths to avoid the issues of having size Large players and to get rid of the old ever shifting alignment issue from the old Half Giants.  In a game that has minimized the importance of alignment, it makes sense they would do something like that.The last 2 to come out were Dark Sun and Neverwinter and you can tell the progress they have been making when it comes to releasing setting books in 4E.  I think we'll see more soft restrictions like how they did it in Dark Sun (we don't have X, Y or Z here, but talk to your DM about it) in the future and hopefully we have a cool setting coming this year.  Personally I'd like to see a new IP, but I doubt that happens.</blockquote>
