A priest who gets trained as a rogue to serve his order in secretive ways is equally intersting. But grabbing feats, backgrounds, or themes that don't make for a consistent character concept just to get that extra bonus to a die roll or that one cool power you wouldn't get otherwise drives me nuts.</blockquote>
