[QUOTE="5ekyu, post: 7625343, member: 6919838"] While obviously there can be most any type of behavior, I dont know of any GM eho would kick a player out for *wanting* their druid to wear metal armor. I can see it as more likely to occur to players who *insist* and get argumentative or insulting about it if told no. Me? I am a "say yes unless there is a compelling reason to say no" guy do in my games I added special "banded armor" (lacquered and treated wood originally elven), shell and chitin based armors and so on. If a player specifically wanted metal, my response would be that it was OK if and only if they gave me background and story driven basis for their charscter that was, in fact, compelling, integral to their charscter and defining. (Basically it adds more to the game and adds to the world in consistent story spawning ways.) But a position paper on "smithing vs tanning - which is more natural?" would not make the cut. [/QUOTE]
