I think if you distill this conversation down, what we have at the two extremes are world builders vs character builders. Both are putting so much energy into their creations, that when they meet they are both screaming "IT'S MAH VISHUN!" (I think I'm going to put that on a T-shirt...it makes me giggle every time). Where the two meet in the middle is story building, and that's where the fun stops being individual and starts being social.Just as a world can be flexible to fit the characters, the characters can be flexible to fit the world. The real fun comes from the playing. I think once the playing starts, and the story gets rolling, those details that everyone thought were so important fade away. Darksun isn't necessarily destroyed by a single gnome. Equally, a character isn't necessarily destroyed by being a human instead of a tiefling.</blockquote>
