[QUOTE="DinoInDisguise, post: 9603216, member: 7045806"] This is all subjective. WotC's ascribed fiction is relatively meaningless here. This is an ideological spectrum about how much power the DM has to shape the world and rules to fit their table. Bloodtide's example players fall to one extreme of that spectrum. If you believe, as many do, that the DM has wide latitude to change and manipulate things to suit their table, what WotC prints both rules-wise and fiction wise diminish in value greatly. There is no imaginary chain binding groups to any singular vision. In fact, any perceived chains are a product of the group's own view on their power to change things. Each of us may view this topic slightly differently. We may each find ourselves on very different parts of the spectrum. That's okay. No one is wrong. Play the game as you view it, and seek out those who desire the same. Happy gaming groups are made up of like-minded individuals. [/QUOTE]
