[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 6239445, member: 48965"] Well honestly if I wanted to recreate LotR I would play The One Ring rpg... however that doesn't mean I shouldn't be able to base a character of Frodo or Bilbo in D&D, especially as seeing how popular the current movies are as far as fantasy media goes (Which was my point). This is the most "natural" way for you... for others the most natural way is to just accept that Frodo isn't good in combat... and the character should reflect that without meta abilities to "fix" something they don't see as wrong... Some may even enjoy the challenge of keeping a character like Frodo or Bilbo alive... without the help of meta abilities... If that's your interpretation of Frodo cool, but I disagree... A warlord is proficient with numerous weapons, armor and even shields. Is Frodo ever shown to be proficient with a wide range of weapons, armors or shields? The problem is that the Warlord is still a combat proficient class, even if he is a lazy lord. And if i were trying to play LotR as opposed to making a character inspired by it you would have a point, but I'm not trying to do a re-enactment... [/QUOTE]
