Message: <blockquote data-quote="drnuncheon" data-source="post: 545578" data-attributes="member: 96">I've got a semi-opposing view on PrCs than a lot of other posters seem to.  For me, the world is a big place, and there's room for a lot of stuff out there.  If a player is interested in a particular PrC, I'll do everything I can to find a way to fit it into the game - and being (IMHO) an inventive and creative guy, I do pretty well.  My tabletop campaign features the very first Spellsword - a warrior mage who is developing his abilities based on a very incomplete understanding of the elven bladesinger art.  He'll be quite surprised when he meets a real bladesinger...and so will the bladesingers!If I happen to know of a PrC that would fit the character, I suggest it to them and if they're interested, find a way to work them into the story.  That's what's happening right now in my game - an NPC is basically tutoring one of the PCs in the ways of a certain PrC that the character doesn't even know exists.If there isn't an existing one that fits the character right, I'm not afraid of sitting down with the player and making a new one - the Planar Envoy I posted in House Rules a while back was created in just that way.I don't think that rigidly defining the PrCs available is the best way to handle the issue of setting consistency and verisimilitude - it strikes me as much the same kind of thinking that led to racial class/level limits back in the older editions.  I hate thinking in terms of "you can't do that" - I much prefer "what possibilities does this open up?"J</blockquote>
