Even under 1e and 2nd Ed DnD, playing Drow, Cambions and Dragons was commonplace and it was not that difficult to place oneself in the shoes of such creatures. So what if this was sometimes in line with the stereotype. Nothing inherently wrong with that.As for DnD being a ROLEplaying game, yeah sure, but then again, there are a billion interpretations of what that means, so there is no surefire way of 'the right way'.In the end it boils down to rule zero however. Even if 'roleplaying' strange combo's results in simple stereotypes, even if we accept that there is some 'official true way' of playing the game, in the end it is all about having fun. If ppl have fun using the rules for their own type of gaming, then that is their full right, more power (and fun!) to them...</blockquote>
