[QUOTE="Cadence, post: 9328286, member: 6701124"] I think it would be great if the DMG had a section on DMs thinking about extraordinary vs. supernatural when imagining a campaign world, and thinking about power sources. Is Batman/Hawkeye the limit to what a normal humans can train up to? Is it John Henry? Is it Anime person? Or is it just IRL olympic athlete? Does everyone have access to Ki/Rage/Grit/Luck/whatever and is able to do cool things with it if they have enough and train? (Like strength or dex IRL and specialist athletes doing things no one else can). Or do only some people have access to that power source? Is magic like that - do you need to be born with the gift to do it at all like a sorcerer, or does everyone have it to some extent? Are spirits being in things part of the normal part and parcel of the waking world? Is there a chaos-fey/law-boring-folk divide? Is the Feywild a separate parallel world all of its own that sometimes leaks in? Are psionics like a sci-fi 6th sense that is just part of the world? Is it a magic corruption from realms beyond? Is it supernatural and you need to be born to it? etc... [/QUOTE]
